Road Legal

By Nick | Published: 15.02.2010
The Z is now road legal. It passed emissions with flying colors. Except that time it didn’t count, I redid the test for real right afterwords and barely passed. But, you know what they say in Fast & Furious: “It don’t matter if it’s an inch or a mile, winning is winning”. Thank you Vin Diesel. I [...]

Meh, This Blog Thing…

By Nick | Published: 25.01.2010
I’ve been slacking in the blog department. It’s lost its appeal once again. In the news… I just got some 550cc, peak & hold injectors for a steal. Purchased a set of locks and keys from Autozone; we’ll see if they work. Installed LC-1 status LED and calibrate button. Got new tires installed I hope to have it inspected shortly.

Though I don’t think Washington said those words, from the Treaty of Tripoli.

Cool Video. I’m glad they put forth the effort to construct great engineering feats. Too bad the rest of their culture is 500 years behind.

I Almost Fell For This

By Nick | Published: 04.01.2010
Clever. A Web 2.0 to end your lame web 2.0 life. The Suicide Machine. Instead of you going through your account to remove all your friends and clear out your profile. You can let that website and it’s “app” do it for you. Very clever, I thought. However, If you really want to drop out of the [...]

It’s okay crazy lady, I punched through the freezer door at Wally World when I learned about the Waffle Shortage of 2009.

They Obviously Deserved It

By Nick | Published: 04.01.2010
Threats against prosecutors and judges are on the rise. Read the story, but then read some of the comments for the real truth: It is not unexpected that threats against these liberal, left-wing, anti-American judges is on the increase. They destroy the U.S. Constitution at every opportunity, keep thugs on the street to rape, rob, murder [...]

I Want This

By Nick | Published: 04.01.2010
I can forgive the label, “Smartbook”, since it’s reportedly so cheap. A $200 tablet? I’ve been waiting for something like this before I ever bought a mobile PC again. From PCWorld: Next to the 512MB of RAM, up to 64GB of internal storage (microSD expansion) and a 1GHz processor, Freescale’s smartbook tablet features a potentially killer spec: [...]

Updating WordPress

By Nick | Published: 31.12.2009
It wouldn’t be so tedious, if they would make things consistent. Well, maybe not consistent, but in-line with what I want. First, when I have to update Wordpress itself, I’m presented with a prompt to update on the control panel. There are two options, “Upgrade Automatically”, which I can’t use since I don’t like setting all [...]

Xmas 2009

By Nick | Published: 31.12.2009
The War on Christmas is over for this year. I received a western saddle for our horse. I tried it out, and Argo was apparently really happy, so he cantered for me. Which is great since I’ve never cantered on him before. However, the horn functioned as a handy “Oh shit!” bar. In other news, someone called [...]
