Here we are in the new year already! Thinking back on 2006, I would say it was a fairly good year. It definitely had its down times, but coupled with those were many fun and exciting things. I’m anxious to see what this new year will bring. Hopefully, it will be filled with quality times with friends, family, and loved ones.
I wish all of you a very Happy New Year!

I went out to pick my car up from the shop… again. When I arrived, I found out that essentially nothing had been done while it was there. I took it in to have the AEM A/F gauge removed, the primary O2 sensor wired to the K-Pro ECU, and have the calibration smoothed out. Well, the AEM gauge is still in there, the CEL (check engine light) regarding the O2 sensor was still on, and no tuning had been done. It’s just frustrating that I take my car over an hour away and then pick it up in the exact same condition.
On the way home I switched back to the stock ITR calibration (from the “tuned” one) and I liked it better. That makes me even more aggravated because I paid $395 USD for the dyno-tuning and I don’t even like it. When I got home, I was a little frustrated. I pulled the car into the garage and went to pop the hood. I guess I applied a little more force than usual, as the little latch (inside the cabin–the one you pull to release the hood) broke off. I looked online, and the part seems to be about $10 USD from the dealer. I guess I need to get that ordered sometime in the near future.
Sometime tomorrow or Saturday I need to take my car back up to have the speed pulse wire re-hooked up, and the dash molding finished. Those two things should only take about 45 minutes or so. At least I know that should work out nicely. 🙂
I’ll keep you posted.

I received this funny email from a dear friend of mine, and thought I would share it with all of you:
—
Two little kids are in a hospital, lying on gurneys next to each other outside the operating room.
The first kid leans over and asks, “What are you in here for?”
The second kid says, “I’m in here to get my tonsils out, and I’m a little nervous.”
The first kid says, “You’ve got nothing to worry about. I had that done when I was 4. They put you to sleep, and when you wake up, they give you lots of Jell-O and ice cream. It’s a breeze.”
The second kid then asks, “What are you here for?”
The first kid says, “A circumcision.”
The second kid says, “Whoa, good luck buddy! I had that done when I was born; couldn’t walk for a year!”
