Corp Avg Fuel Econ or CAFE or as i call it pointless regulations
pointless? you ask. But it makes car companies make more eff. cars.
Nope it doesn't. Been around for a while and has not been updated for some time (yes they passed other stuff but it isn't in effect yet)
Where is my proof? you ask
Well with the current levels in place for some time and the SUVs still ruled the land. I have 2 in fact. One real monster too :) but back to the story. Now what is happening? Prices for fuel have taken off, and consumers are responding but buying everything with a 4 cyl. Foreign and domestic alike are being sold like mad. Just no trucks and suvs (including Toyotas).
There is your proof that the government doesn't know what they are doing and just making things worse. Next thing you know they are going to help us all lose weight by not allowing clothes over large to be made.

And mine is really short. Tomorrow is my last day in the office for the week. Have to do a bit of traveling. Just a quick over night.
Had a good weekend but it was too short despite the extra day. I got to visit with my brother and help him bottle his most recent batch of beer. Got to see one of the trucks his company makes. It was a bit hard to miss. With the body up i think it was about 30ft tall. (maybe more)
My trip was fueled my E85. Dont know if it will do much good but I found it cheap. very cheap
On that note I also saw a few wind farms... They look so graceful.
Well on with a busy week and plans for AC. oh I can't wait.

Dont know about the rest of you but I got out of town. Pissed about fuel prices I decided to run the whole time on E85. Not usually a $ wise choice but thanks to some wonderful town in IN I gassed up at 2.859 twice.
Time is nearing where we will gather in Pittsburgh for a most wonderful event.
Anthrocon
Is there anyone among those listed here that would like a ride between Toledo OH and the con? I will be leaving sometime on thursday in the AM and returning sunday night at some point.
If you are interested let me know soon so we can work out details and I can reserve your seat on the bus.
to date 4 seats are spoken for and 4 are available (but I may cut it off at 7 total)

Ok, we had 5 people doing my job at one point. Now we are down to 2. So needless to say i am overloaded there. My mate seems to be having a rough time, no nix that he is having a really rough time. I am trying to keep up with all my stuff, house and what not.
The MiFur site went down, so yeah my mate has no time for me tonight. It needs to be fixed and I know that needs to be fixed first. However... I am bored.
Now not everything is so sour. Just saw the WPAFW reg is open. I like that event. Small and fun. This will def be one of the cons i go to during the rest of the year. WPAFW, AC, and MFF all that is left. Well, for this year.
Ummm, what else... ??? eh that is enough for now

You do not feel nervous in social situations, and have a good impression of what others think of you, however you often resist any cravings or urges that you have, but sometimes you give in. You love bright lights and hustle and bustle. You are likely to take risks and seek thrills. You prefer the security and stability brought by conformity to tradition. You find helping other people genuinely rewarding and are generally willing to assist those who are in need. You find that doing things for others is a form of self-fulfillment rather than self-sacrifice, however you are willing to take credit for good things that you do but you don't often talk yourself up much. You have a strong sense of duty and obligation, and feel a moral obligation to do the right thing.
What a weekend. Went out shooting. Played with my new, well new to me, Excursion. I love diesel, wish i had bought one earlier. Got server raw wings at BW3s, not so fun but gives me yet another story. Then on to Ave Q, which I have to say is one of the better shows I have seen. Right up there with The King and I. Oh and we topped it off with a wonderful meal at the Still Water grill. I have to give it to that place, good food and great service.
Maybe best of all I got to relax with my Gir, :)

Wow what a con. There are not that many periods of time where i have gotten so little rest and still enjoyed myself so much. I just hope everyone else had as much fun.
Now to bed to catch up on some rest.

start the day way too early to get some work done and put in enough time to skip out of work Friday. Seem good enough. Light traffic and i get to turn up my music because no one else is the for another 2 hours.
Ok work was no picnic. But i got thru it with the help of way too much coffee. Off to Ypsi. Oh wait, now it is raining and sorta snowing. Add to that the fact that i didnt hear abotut he crane that feel onto the freeway i was trying to use. The only ate about an extra hour of my day.
Ok dinner and nearly falling asleep, now for the trip home, but wait it is now snowing like mid winter. That didn't make that drive home fun.
