Like I said... This is the best thread ever :D
Yea girls are fucking odd guys... But I just lost one that I had so much respect for, it wasnt even funny.
She was cool as hell, TKD Champ, heading to the Olympics in a few years for TKD, Cross Country Champ, Track Champ... And shes beautiful. Perfect chic in my opinion... I dont know many chics that will go running with you at 4:30 in the morning, on the beach for that matter.
But she had one aspect of her that was immature... And that turned out to be the end of the relationship there. Kinda tore me up.
Im picky as fuck when it comes to girls, so when I find one... I like them quite a bit. So I set myself up sometimes... But o well, a few more months and I'll be surrounded by drunk ass sluts doing lines off each others ass's :rolleyes: Yea real attractive eh?

hey guys...i finally got my car back and i must say that it was worth the wait. i will try and get a good camera to take some pics so there arent so blury.
BTW: i ended up with the whole front end repainted including the 99' JDM front fascia. i had rust starting in the very top of the windshield behind the molding, that is taken care of. i had a very small patch where someone had taken a very harsh remover and it stripped the clear coat, that is redone. i also bought the 90-93 TT spoiler and that was painted and put on. and the rest of the car was blended to go with with the fresh paint. not a scuff or ding or scratch on the car. next on the list is a TT front clip, i love this car but it is quite expensive. :D

you guys think i can do that with my wheels?!?!?! lol. j/k.
yeah i am working on getting some half way decent pics. well the damage from both accidents added up to about $5,000 dollars, including parts, labor, materials. then i chucked in an extra $450 for my front bumper and spoiler. ($650 for front bumper and shipping -$350 because thats how much the body shop would have paid for a new front bumper. plus the spoiler was $150 for spoiler and shipping.)
first accident: new right fender and front bumper and spoiler plus paint and labor. ($2000 on my insurance claim and they worked in the paint and installation of the spoiler in on the claim)
second accident: new left fender and hood. repaint front bumper, and paint on fender and hood. then i pressured them to take out the rust in the roof and the spot in the hatch because they got my car in an accident. then they blended the whole car so it all looks shiny new. ($3,000 on their insurance claim)
then my insurance company gave me $1600 for my wheels and tires so i ended up with $900 bucks after i paid my $250 deductible and $450 for front bumper and spoiler.
so...i didnt really get a brand new paint job but most of it is freshly painted. id say it would have cost about $2500-$3000 to repaint the whole car.

Damnit broke, haha.
Here is a brief history of Samhain...
Samhain is the winter season of the ancient Celts. The Celts divided the year into four quarters: Samhain (winter), Imbolc (spring), Beltane (summer), and Lughnasadh (autumn). The Celtic year began in November, with Samhain. The Celts were influenced principally by the lunar and stellar cycles which governed the agricultural year - beginning and ending in autumn when the crops have been harvested and the soil is prepared for the winter. Pronunciation differs radically between different groups of Celtic language speakers.
Samhain Eve, in Erse, Oidhche Shamhna, is one of the principal festivals of the Celtic calendar, and is thought to fall on or around the 31st of October. It represents the final harvest. In modern Ireland, the name by which Halloween is known in the Irish language is still "Oíche Shamhna".
Bonfires played a large part in the festivities. Villagers cast the bones of the slaughtered cattle upon the flames. (the word bonfire is thought to derive from these "bone fires.") With the bonfire ablaze, the villagers extinguished all other fires. Each family then solemnly lit their hearth from the common flame, thus bonding the families of the village together.
Like most Celtic festivals, it was celebrated on a number of levels. Materially speaking it was the time of gathering food for the long winter months ahead, bringing people and their livestock in to their winter quarters. To be alone and missing at this dangerous time was to expose yourself and your spirit to the perils of imminent winter. In present times the importance of this part of the festival has diminished for most people. From the point of view of a tribal people for whom a bad season meant facing a long winter of famine in which many would not survive to the spring, it was paramount.
Samhain was also a time for contemplation. Death was never very far away, yet to die was not the tragedy it is in modern times. Of signal importance to the Celts people was to die with honour and to live in the memory of the tribe and be honoured at the great feast (in Ireland this would have been the Fleadh nan Mairbh (Feast of the Dead)) which took place on Samhain Eve.
This was the most magical time of the year; Samhain was the day which did not exist. During the night the great shield of Skathach was lowered, allowing the barriers between the worlds to fade and the forces of chaos to invade the realms of order, the material world conjoining with the world of the dead. At this time the spirits of the dead and those yet to be born walked amongst the living. The dead could return to the places where they had lived and food and entertainment were provided in their honour. In this way the tribes were at one with its past, present and future. This aspect of the festival was never totally subdued by Christianity.
On the level of cosmic event, the rising of Pleiades, the winter stars, heralds the supremacy of night over day, the dark half ruled by the realms of the moon.
In the three days preceding the Samhain month the Sun God, Lugh, maimed at Lughnassadh, dies by the hand of his Tanist (his other self), the Lord of Misrule. Lugh traverses the boundaries of the worlds on the first day of Samhain. His Tanist is a miser and though he shines brightly in the winter skies he gives no warmth. and does not temper the breath of the Crone, Cailleach Bheare, the north wind. In this may be discerned the ageless battle between the light and dark and the cyclic nature of life and the seasons.
In parts of western Brittany Samhain is still heralded by the baking of kornigou. Kornigou are cakes baked in the shape of antlers to commemorate the god of winter shedding his "cuckold" horns as he returns to his kingdom in the Otherworld.
When the Romans made contact with the Celts, they added their feast of the dead to Samhain. The Christians subverted the recognition of Samhain to honor the saints, as All Saint's Day on November 1st and named October 31 as All Hallow's Eve. This latter became a secular holiday by the name of Hallowe'en. Although using different nomenclatures, all of these festivals and feasts are celebrating the accessibility, veneration, awe, and respect of the dead.
... Brief... To the point... Sort of.

Took it by my buds shop... Throw-Out bearing was about to go, flywheel needed to be replaced 20,000miles ago, clutch needed to be replaced, CV Joints front and rear needed to be replaced, turbos needed rebuilding, and the wastegates were sticking.
So... Didnt feel like spending $4,000 on parts and labor, so I decided to let it go... Wish I bought it just for a fun beater... But o well.
