boiled & then chilled water tastes the best. dunno why, but it just does...

avoid getting city water (sprinklers) on your car. that **** is nasty, loaded with crap (minerals), and if you don't wash it off right away it will leave white milky residue.

good thing we don't live in australia where that water actually can eat thru your clearcoat. some dude on the forum actually had to get his entire 8 re-painted after it got soaked by sprinkers somewhere in kangaroo land.

yes, this is indeed true. heading North on Archibald just before getting on the 60w, there are several purple signs with a picture of a person drink water with a red crossed out circle over the person. the wording specifically states to not drink the water for that same reason.

On both Feb 7th and Feb 21st when Michelle is having her baby showers I will be at K1 speed in Ontario. i would like to setup a guys day there. (both days). it will be @ 2:00


Please e-mail me if you want to join in the fun. I can call ahead and make sure we all get to race together. speeddemon32 at msn . com



there is a 1 time charge of $5.95 for their "race license". its good for a year.



if you pay for 1 race at a time it is $20 per race.

on the weekends (like this) you can buy 3 races for $50

if you want to save another $10, you can go there on a weekday and pre pay for 3 races @ $40, then use them on the weekend. (this is what i did)



again, let me know if you want to join, and on what day(s).

Here purple tags represents retreated water. The water is not that bad for using it for lawns and stuff. I would not drink anything that is retreated no matter what they did to it.

blue is my favourite colour. everything in my room has been placed as it is by me, not anybody else.

the paint can be any shade of blue you want really. after many years, it's been degrading slowly and the blue has become less vibrant.

it's a special paint that comes from El Salvador in Central America, which my aunt got on one of her trips down there to visit family many years ago. The paint itself is a chalk based paint and you just mix it in with water. the more water is mixed in, the lighter shade of color you will get.

to apply the paint, you need to dab a sponge in the solution and start swirrling the sponge in a circular motion. while applying this to the wall, you can also control how much of a deep color you desire by the amount of pressure applied to the sponge as well.
