LOL I wish I heard the same thing you do.... I hear a big black suburban with 115,000 miles calling my name. Gotta work

But happy birthday Gissy, drink one for me (as if I even had to say it.) Somebody get some pictures for me would ya's

I'll be around this weekend, though. I really want to try and make it to Subaru of Gwinnett on Saturday for the dyno thing. I've got some detailing to do this weekend, but probably all on Sunday, so I'll be free to party

Hey guys guess what. I called the Zebulon Police Department today to check on the status of my ticket I got there on July 24. First off let me explain what happened. I was traveling home from Atlanta to my parents house in Thomaston in the middle of the night (11:15pm). I'm going down Hwy 19 for miles. This is a major 5 lane with virtually no traffic this time of night, cuz I'm in the middle of nowhere. I decide to pick up the pace a little since it was late and I was travelling so far. Well, right in the middle of nowhere on this wide open 5 lane highway is a little town called Zebulon. It's basicallly just a town square and a courthouse right in the middle of the divided highway. Only 2 stoplights. I always know to slow down there because I hear they are bad about speed trapping. Well, in this particular instance it was late and I had been driving for a while, so my attention was less than perfect. I was doing 65 in a 55, as soon as I hit the town it drops to 45 and guess who's sitting right on the other side of that sign. Old PORKY! I knew he got me so I politely pulled over. He informed me that I was not doing 65 but rather 70... in a 45. I'm thinking ok that's way over the speed limit but I'm ok, it's a major highway and there is no traffic. Surely they will be lenient with me since this is my first ticket EVER! Well, I call up there today to ask how much the ticket was.... Anyone want to guess? $356!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy shit are you kidding me?!?!?!?! I mean I had EVERYTHING working in my favor for a lenient penalty and they still got me for $356. It's not like I was doing 70 in a 45 through a neighborhood or something. It's a damned highway!! It's all commercial property and at 11:15pm it is EMPTY! I wasn't driving wrecklessly or out of control. If you could see this stretch of highway you would understand that 70mph isn't dangerous at ALL! I even told the officer how far I was travelling and that my guage honestly read 65mph hoping he would understand. Hell no. I understand I broke the law and all and I don't have any problem with getting penalized, but damn! I just wasn't paying attention. I'm sure it happens to everyone when they drive, even the damned officer who wrote the ticket. Does he, or I, deserve to pay $356 for it? NO! This kind of thing makes me wonder why EVERYONE doesn't run from the police. If I knew how heavy the fine was going to be and I had been in my car instead of the pickup, I'm pretty sure it would have crossed my mind not to make it so easy for him. I know that's a terrible thing to say and I would never encourage anyone to do that, but dammit I can't help thinking that fines like this only encourage that sort of thing. This is ridiculous, I'm done.

Tonight... there's a mini 3/S gathering at Moondogs.

Sorry... Beem you can't go... but we'll have another mini-gathering at Bradley's soon.

Can't wait to get my car back on the road... then... our next goal is to get the Hammus-Mobile back on the road. Any idea of what it's going to take and what it's going to cost to get your's back up, Beem?

I would like to run against you at Track Day.
