Been a long time.
blows dust off GRM cookies.
What's been going on here, guyz?
Let's see. Since I last posted (I think), Rex:
. Bought a House . Sold his Ducati . Bought a brandy new Outback Sport for Mrs.Therex . Sold his beloved Mazdaspeed3
I did that last one yesterday. Tried for a month to sell it for 15k (with only 31k on the clock!) and got nothing but tire kickers and "Nice car, Man, I wish I had the money!" Well geez dude if you didn't have the money why'd you waste my time?
le sigh
Anyway, I took that ish to Carmax and never looked back. They shocked me speechless by offering 14k for it. I said "Done! Here are the keys."
"So what are you driving now, Rex?" You'll be sorry you asked:
My grandmother's totally Cherry 40k mile 2001 Kia Sephia.
Oh man, what a PILE. Going to look at a bugeye WRX tonight, I don't know how long I can stand this korean pile of dogE36 M3.
Anyway. takes a deep breath It's good to be back. Back in the land of no warranties, no promises, and no limits.
I drove the hatch version of that Kia once, it was really awful, but it was my uncle's all-season beater - covered with filth on the inside, rust all along the door sills, something clunking in the suspension, the whole works, so I don't know if it was just because it was in really bad condition. It would get really loose on gravel backroads at about 100kph.
what happened? Hmmmmm
. The site front page changed, and everyones head exploded
. people used tools wrong, and everyones head exploded

...and Margie's concrete patio is the size of a football field. 
...and hotlinking is in an uncontrolled free fall.

Umm...how is it broken?
1) If you have a double space after a line...
2) It's automatic.
3) Like magic or something.
Thanks for bringing me up to speed, guyz.
In other news, I put down a deposit on a 2002 WRX Wagon today. Here's to hoping I don't regret it!
Hotlink thread has replaced Ignore

Orrrrrr.... we could simply be able to double return and call it a day? Please? I'm asking nicely 
. insert a period and a space before your text, then double space after it
. do it again
. and again
. yep, one more
and boom bing bang, a fancy pants new list. i never touched a number key.
And yet, you have 1111 instead of 1234.
maybe something weird with your browser. im on opera mini right now on my cell, and firefox on my desktop, and i see 1234
Have you seen the Ken Block video?
And its still not cool to bring up Ford's 2.3 liter pinto engine as a Grassroots platform.
I was just thinking the other day, what happened to that dude with the confederate avatar?
That's not confederate that's colonel ingus. He's full of win.
Welcome home, Colonel.

Uh, Colonel...you don't know me, but I think you took over my life and forgot to leave the Kia here...
That's her best side. Taking it to my ASE-Certified brother-in-law for some TLC. Don't know when I'll get it back.
Colonel Angus! Too offing funny.

The Pinto 2300 is cool, but it is last in a long line of cool and the others in the line usually are lighter, make moar powar and cost less.
