Wow... what a crazy week.
To start, last Saturday my car got broken into, they broke through the driver side front window, took my faceplate and remote to my stereo (both were tucked away). I don't really car about the remote, i never used it, but the faceplate, that just sucks. they tried to get the deck out, but just managed to scratch stuff up in the process. The worst part is that this is the second time someone has broken into my car in the past 3-4 months. Same place, same way of getting in, but this time they took stuff :mad: . So... I'm supposed to be going to SEMA on Monday morning, and now it's Saturday afternoon, and I don't have a window! or a radio. So i call everywhere, no one has a window, they all say sometime Monday. Well this sucks. So I drive back to Phoenix Sunday evening as planned. But then my mom says I can drive her Jetta to vegas, and once my car window gets replaced, she'll drive the car. Cool, now i can still go to SEMA. So I meet up with a friend, we leave Monday morning for Vegas and arrive Monday afternoon. I meet up with a couple people who are already there. We hang out Monday afternoon and evening, stay out pretty late seeing some of the stuff there is to see in Vegas then head back to the Hotel. Tuesday morning, get up, meet in the lobby, and head to the Convention Center. SEMA is crazy! thousands of vendors, cars, barely dressed models (YEAH!), and more cars... and cool stuff. Spend all Tuesday running around looking at all the cool stuff, Tuesday night we get a group of people together, go out to eat, then do some more stuff on the strip later that night. Wednesday morning, same thing, get up early, head to the Convention Center, and start running to see everything. Wednesday afternoon, around 1:00 or so, we have to head back to Phoenix. So, we start driving.... Get back into Phoenix later in the evening. Head home, watch the world series (Go D-backs!) that game sucked. Thursday, get up, and start working on the car (I'm gonna take avantage of having a garage to use). Window's fixed, stock radio back in the car, clutch cable, oil change, etc.... Thursday afternoon, head back to Tucson, watch the world series (Go D-backs!) that game sucked too. Friday morning (this morning) test in Astronomy class. That sucked too, but I think I did ok. Oh yeah, why do we need to learn about this crap anyway, it's not like I'm going to need to know the absolute brightness of the nearest stars, or the phases of a high-mass stars life in the business world. Oh well. I'm just glad this week is finally over. Now I'm off to work for the weekend (DOH!). Oh well, maybe I'll get a chance to test drive a Spec V. :D

Oh yeah, if you get a chance, check out Sentra Online Magazine. They have some really cool articles, and there should be more G20 content in the future. There's a new issue every month. Keep your eyes out for a HUGE G20 article in a couple months. :D

Boooorrriinnnggg... I see how it is :D Naw... I figured no one would care, but just wait until I finish my writeup on a couple things... i was hoping to get them done last week, but that other stuff happenend. The SEMA write up will be especially cool, as i'll mention a couple of the new products coming out that they displayed at the show.
