Of course, but bad things also happen on Saturday the fourteenth, and even Monday the 31st (especially in September).
Good things also happen on the 13th. I don't believe in bad luck. Well, not exactly. I don't believe in having bad luck. Bad luck is when a bunch of bad schidtt has happened to you already. I don't think anyone is prone to bad luck. Sometimes it is bad decisions that lead them down the path of bad happenings. Those people just bitch about it and blame it on bad luck. Sometimes it is just by chance. Of course, what do I know? For years, I couldn't go on a trip without a bunch of undesirable stuff happening. I think my luck has changed. Oops, I don't believe in luck. OK, maybe a little.

11.3@123mph on 195/75/14" whitewalls. Yes, 195s!
11.2 on the big giant slicks. What's the point? Maybe I'll go back to the whitewalls. They are lighter and have less rolling resistance.

Nahhh i sold my trailer not the car. Now I need a recipe for a smoother and quiter ride on the street so I don't want to blow my head off when on a 30 minute drive. I'm going to enjoy it this year. I'd forgotten how knarly a ride this sum beach has after being on the shelf so long.

Brian and I discussed a gameplan yesterday and soon as Jack is back #1 priority is get it through emissions.

Your car runnin?
