Well, honestly, they're hard to come by these days...
The guy that was supposed to get my taillights fell through.. he got them, then I found out he was arrested for STEALING THEM... The same engine he was going to sell to me.. turns out it wasn't what he said it was (CTR motor) AND it was stolen from the same fscking car.. here's a guy I thought I could trust.. and there he goes... turns out they've been through this with him before.. about 4 years ago, they dug up 30 some-odd hondas of "unknown origin" from his dad's pond... mostly civics, mostly either Si's or custom jobbies, probably most had stolen parts on them when HE stole 'em.. but whatever, before I catch another contact, I'm going to freakin do a background check from now on...
I don't need this shit.
Who agrees with me on this: Good contacts are just plain hard to come by... and the more honest they seem, the less likely that they actually are.
Does it seem to y'all like I end up seeing or being a part of alot of stupid shit?
I just happen to be one of those people that's ALWAYS around when something stupid happens... just my luck.. however, it never happens to the people that I'm with... we always just see it.

I used to be like that... associating with the wrong people. Thank God I never got into some real trouble with car stuff. I hate thieves, especially car thieves.
I really don't associate with any car people.
Gotta be careful...

This I've noticed... like I said, I'm gonna start doing background checks on ppl.. I still have a few FBI friends from back when I was a security guard in front of the Mechanicsburg army base... had to have fed clearance b/c I was watching their base too.

That would work. I know for a fact that FBI contacts are good to know.

One of my friends from college is the son of two Feds. I dunno if that will really get me too far, but it can't hurt.

Remember, when it comes to feds it has nothing to do w/ who your friends are.. it's who's wife you keep happy :D ( In the most non-vulgar way possible)
