Couldnt risk it, had to stop at napa to get primer to finish my last wheel im refinishing and at family video to drop off forza 4 which was already late as is. Haha[/quote]

Baking cookies. My butter was not warmed up, so I have the two sticks down in pockets to get them jump started. Yum.

Wifey's working on a raspberry marsala trifle. The cake foundation is Betty Crocker Moist Deluxe Butter Golden. For a boxed cake, that is a seriously good mix.

When baking cakes/cookies etc,etc... NEVER use Signature Brands for the sprinkles, they are my neighbors and i seem to have inherited their rat problem

Sprinkles & rat problem? Dare I ask how the two might be connected.

On the topic of sprinkles... If you ever have the opportunity, give this brand a try;



Hagelslag is almost a staple in Dutch kitchens; they serve it on buttered toast, and it is to die for. Regular chocolate sprinkles are just plain nasty by comparison. My wife's parents both immigrated from Holland, and they'll get a box for us as a treat now & again. And when my wife & I visited her sister in Holland earlier this spring we brought back a bunch of boxes. The pictured box is dark chocolate, but there's also white chocolate, milk chocolate, berry flavors, etc... Any of them beats the usual candy sprinkles all to heck.

ask away... I don't personally use their products. Their sprinkle plant is located directly behind my shop. we have rats and so does the A/C place next door. We have been trying to figure out why being as neither of us have any food sources. We have recently discovered, by one of them being here when i arrived and sprinting out of the exhaust evnt in the back wall that they are eating next door and living over here. However I solved our problem last week by having a company come in and rat proof the place, again. This is our third run in with this.

Shot a steady 95 today at Lakewood golf club. (Lakewoodgolfclub.net). Think I'll buy the place.
Did some massive donuts with their stout 36volt carts. Wheels left the ground a few times and I left a breadcrumb trail of Yuengling cans throughout with my BIL.
One hole was lined with cows that kept Moooing during my backswing. Yes, I entertained thoughts of placing a few balls into the herd but my Mother-in-Law was in the other cart and I've been trying real hard to get her to believe I am normal.
Had many a laugh with family as the gals stayed home and made cookies. Now I just have to deal with them as they have found my eggnog a little too satisfying today and are drunk as hoot owls.

I do my shopping on Christmas Eve because I work better under pressure. The morning went okay but I still needed a bottle of Courvoisier VSOP and I was striking out everywhere. I was starting to get grumpy because I was running out of time and drivers were being exceptionally douchebaggy. At my next stop an attractive, perky blond that was coming out said hello & merry Christmas and was generally very flirty. The store had the Courvoisier and to top it off, when I got home, I had Ebay packages from Greece, Scotland & England waiting for me.

I'm meeting the Liquor store girl for happy hour on Friday.

So yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus...

I went out with the woman for drinks this after noon, local bar with a few people from her work. Got the typical hatred from everyone there, then proceeded to go to store-X for some things needed for the house, being as them and Wal-Marx were only ones open still. Started with typical douchebaggery from every person alive doing last minute Christmas shopping... Got home and racist ass meth cooking asshat at the end of my street burned his house up. Ahhhh Karma is a magnificent thing. Not one to laugh at someone for this kind of thing, but he lives with only his meth cooking girlfriend and they have this house and another, and in this case it was really deserved. now back up at the shop after towing in a Z3 with a coffee stirrer shifter.

I havent had a drop of booze today. Dont plan on it til new years eve. Ironically I received 3 bottles of high octane, including a mason jar of apple pie moonshine for Christmas. :/

Good for you sir. I could wish i had that kind of willpower

Best sprinkles ever. I grew up eating those. Used to eat "sprinkle sandwiches" as a kid after eating my ham buns (ham, mustard, relish on a potato roll). My mom would take a potato roll, put a bit of butter on it and some of the berry sprinkles. Yum. Unfortunately, our Dutch store is gone, so I'll have to hit up the Artesia Bakery next time I go to the LA area.

Ah, now I get it; was thinking it was your neighbor at home, and... Never mind.

The Interwebs is your friend; Amazon sells a 3-pack for about $17. My in-laws live in a little Dutch ghetto in NW Iowa, and the grocery stores there stock it at about $6 a box, so Amazon's price isn't too bad. In the Netherlands the stuff sells for about 2 euros a box.

Aaaaahahaha! Genius. If ya cant follow the link, search for "wheres the little girl" on youtube.

Nope. Actually feel better. I really would LIKE to drink but....

It's the day after Christmas, and I'm outside working on the car (e32) in a t-shirt & jeans. In Sioux Falls, SD. 54° F; a new record. Two years ago today we were digging out from a record Christmas Day snowstorm. South Dakota; land of infinite variety.

Raw 42f blowing in off the water . I bundled up and unburied the Ariens snow blower in the back of the shed. It runs but pisses gas out of the vent. It is perplexing. A few days ago, I finished re habbing the 'zact same model Ariens . It runs great . So, outfitted with 2 snow blowers, a 5 KW genset, and over a cord of dry fire wood . I am ready for winter.

Baby vomit is one of the most disgusting vile wretched smelling things on the Earth.

That smoke signal at :52 is .

Somehow I topped 5000 posts recently. No idea how I accomplished that; I'm usually a quiet wallflower type.

Whatever; sounds like an occasion for celebration!

Why do I keep getting rid of cars only to buy more cars?

Up here in the rust belt, that is the cycle . I've slowed it down considerably since I got into E28s though.

My wife seems very demurred which must explain my new eyepatch.

Goats held up well, even to the fireworks. Not much patience for our fumbling through "Smoke on the Water" for some reason. Still no milk.

There seems to be some new vintage iron popping up around our great country. I'm seeing cars I haven't seen before. Keep your eyes open- I feel this is a good year to get a steal on a good car from its clueless owner...


2012- the year the clueless sell their good vintage cars. That's my motto.

50° outside on January 5th. Normally all the snow would be melting but we have yet to have any accumulation this year. I was in my local mom and pop cafe last night and one of the old timers was saying that he can't ever remember a winter like this. My guess is we're going to get hammered in the next few weeks.

Aside from the Halloween Nor'Easter, we haven't had anything either. I haven't even put the winter tires on the car yet!
