I'm having a little bad luck but definitely not as bad as some of you guys.

1. Body shop cracked something and now I gotta wait a little longer for my car to be done.

2. The wheels I ordered are delayed and I have to wait another 4-6 weeks on top of the 3 months I've already waited.

3. I'm going to be getting some weird looks once I get my car out of the shop because I will be rolling on 16's after the body upgrade.

So basicly, alot of waiting.

Wow, lifes been good but I could think of a few bad things that happened recently

1.) Front right tire blew out ON THE WAY TO MY HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION (as in I was graduating haha)
2.) Got a speeding ticket a few weeks ago
3.) Got cockblocked real bad last night

The best advice I can give you guys is to think "If this is the worst thing Im ever going to deal with, Im gonna have a pretty damn good life"

OMG... things have actually turned around for a change... a big one too

Some of you may not know... but my dad was diagnosed with mesothioloma cancer last year... something that supposedly cannot be cured.... and yesterday, after more than a year of chemo, prayers, surgery, and a plethora of stuff i could not imagine going through... my dad tested negative on cancer cells!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm prolly going to go ranting about this for the rest of my life! Everything else just doesn't matter anymore... I invite disappointments to come my way now..... won't bug me at all.

One thing i can definately say for all those going through the dark storms... just pray man.

Yup. Lasted longer than the sc tranny, a year and a half versus 3 months. My fault, I should had the valve bodies done, then I wouldn't be in this predicament.. When this one goes in, very low boost until I get the tranny done. Then I can start to have fun agian.

1) I try to install new deck and amp - I get a terrible hum and alternator noise (even when car off). Circuit city won't look at it...I return a $1000 deck.

2) Pay Electronic Express (should have gone to Tweeter) to install it and amp, works but then crappy ininity amp does same thing again just not as bad, so I bought a Polk MOMO 975w 4 channel amp and it's better but theres still an alternator whine, so I'm pissed....

3) Stereo guy blows out speedometer and gauge cluster...either of us have a clue as to whats wrong.
The guys going to pay for it, I just feel bad cuz he's really cool and you know guys like that don't make much and on top of that fixing a Lex can be expensive...

4) P/o at friends cuz they never answer their phones and I always feel like their ditching me but theres always some excuse....I can't wait til college.
