We played our version of high speed Frogger.

I'm on my 10th cup of coffee this morning, everything for me is high speed. You should see how fast I pet my dog today...... (sad note: he has a bald spot where I pet him)

I say 'think' because I've pretty much all but sent the money but that will probably happen today

Just find an old piece of 1500-3000 grit wet-or-dry. It will speed up what you're accomplishing.

Teenage girl in a honkin' big SUV (sorry it all happen to fast to get a better description) decides she needs to make a right hand turn. Unfortunately, she is in the left lane & right beside me. Now it's not like she just drifts into the lane I'm in, no she is making a full blown right hand turn right into my drivers side door.
I am able to make an avoidance move that keeps my month old 2013 Z out of the body shop or more likely the junkyard. (Thank you Z, for your maneuverability & acceleration powers)
As I am pulling away, I look in the rear view. Her close call at totaling a Z has not dampened her desire to make that damn right turn. And I watch in the review as she runs the car in back of me off the road in order to complete her turn.
As the owner of both a Z & a teenage (16) girl driver, all I can say is... *sigh*
sigh.

Took a short trip to St. Pete this morning to see my mom. It's about a 100 mile round trip drive. On the way I passed by a wreck that was in the medium. A Camaro and some economy car. Both totaled. What I don't understand is how can two cars hit each other on an 8 lane interstate highway at 8AM on the weekend, with very little traffic, in the middle of no where. No entrance or exit ramps, nothing but straight highway?

And quick test drive.

I find myself taking the longest way possible to ran errands lately. This morning I had to run to home depot to grab some paint rollers....normally a 30min ordeal. Took me over an hr.

That's awesome, but it kinda defeats the purpose of a stealth install, doesn't it?

Hey, the EZ pass is for tolls, right? Well, why should they give a flip where you've got it mounted, as long as it can be scanned?

Huh? I just thought they meant they 'sneakily' installed it. Like they creeped up on the car without it or anyone noticing in stealth mode, then installed it.


(defeating the look, that was the joke)

Got 2/3 of the lip painted. Need to order some putty to fix this last piece. :/

I know, I know. I got it.

I guess it would just suck to put in such a slick install to only have to deal with coppers over it.

I believe it costs more than $0.25, but I could be wrong. If I were you, and I'm not-just sayin', I would bring a little more cash to buy the putty.
