Well its 2 in the morning and me and some very good friends just finished pulling out my blown KA. It's pretty amazing what a thrown rod will do to an iron block. I'll get the pics up soon- its pretty interesting. I started working at about 5 and finished cleaning up (including a taco bell run) at 2 am. Not bad considering the most advanced car repair i had done before this was changing brake pads or an alternator. It may have taken us a while to do but I learned so much about my car and i feel pretty satisfied. Not really any point to this post other than to let yall know whats going on in my neck of the 240 woods.

Actually icehouse is their beer of choice and we had Killian's and Corona's when we pulled it out the night before. But I didnt buy the icehouse- too poor after buying new KA. But i will make it up next week, and the week after, and the week after. . .

Hey, Icehouse is the beer of choice. Aluminum cans is not, however, the container of choice. Next time I front the $ for the beer and someone uses it to buy cans, there will be a swift a$$ kicking. :(
