Hmm, do I put on multiple layers of clothes and go in to a thankless job, or do I stay at home and play Battlefield 3?[Coffee]

Oh yeah, wind chill brings it down to 14!

Thankless job or not it's still a job. If you're not happy you should leave. If you don't need a job because you're well off why work?

I need a job so I'm headed out

red light, speeding and found out at the time I got the ticket I had let my insurance lapse[Bang]

Did you really run the red?

Did you really run the red?
Just barely, definitely a judgment call. I think the PO thought I was a tad reckless........he was probably right.

Good luck! There is a bit of a difference in a "pink" light and flat running a red.

You should be fine. I had a 26 point ticket 4 years ago.

90 in a 50, reckless driving, and engaging in a speed contest.

I went to court in Larimer County. The judge dropped everything but the reckless driving. He ended up giving me a $150 fine, road rage classes, and 1 year of unsupervised probation. I'm just glad that CSP didn't catch us on the interstate. I was doing 145+ for a good stretch between Loveland and Fort Collins.

I subsequently sold my Z28 to prevent the temptation to do something that retarded again.

20˚ and about 6" of snow.

The fire is roaring, a roast is in the crock pot and I ain't goin' nowhere. [Coffee]

Console users have no idea what they're missing. To them taking two seconds to do a 180 degree turn is normal. Do the console games have "aim help" still?

Is that a snorkel on the front? Sweet truck. There was one for sale here a few years ago for $8k, kinda wish I'd gone for it.

Once my wife told me every school district had pretty much canceled for the day, I figured I shouldn't be on the roads either.

Slept until 10:30, my wife made us grilled cheese sandwiches (Panera sourdough and sharp cheddar, thank you very much!), watched A Knights Tale (don't start anything, that movie is hilarious! [Tooth]) and am now doing homework while the Mrs. and the baby nap.

It has been a good, good day.

Shoveled snow from 1-9:30 this morning and I don't need the money. I think me and my brother might be the last of our kind. Just a couple of white backs.

HELL YEAH! I bet that Element really tore it up!!!!

Studded Nokian Hakkapeliitta 4's & All Wheel Drive on a 4000 lb Wide Track 2005 Automatic Element EX with only 32K Miles on it... Yeah... It really does stomp upon the tarmac. Ice? Snow? HA! No Problem. I have "broken trail" in 10-ish Inches of California Concrete and 20 Inches of Rocky Mountain White Gold. Just drive until you get a big pile up front... stop... back up... go around the pile and repeat the process.

But... just in case things get REALLY NASTY... I am retrofitting a set on Tracks to it... More Ground Clearance... Better Mudding Capabilities... Better Sand Capabilities... Better Water Fording Capabilities. Should be fun!

Are you really putting those tracks onto the Element? Seems like the axles might be too weak on one of those.
