Good Morning CGs!

I'm up and ready to go today. It's Friday finally. My work week has been screwy the past week or so. My regular days off I worked, my work days got changed to days off, blah blah blah. Bottom line is that I have off tomorrow, work Sun and Mon, then have three days off. Nice. I can deal with that. Then back to normal.

Anyone have big plans for the weekend? Aside from closing the pool I don't really have any.

Post up anything new and exciting.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Matthew

HOT CHICK FRIDAY:

Yeah, it's a BMW, but I'm willing to live with that:

Apparently they got in a near fender-bender and decided that feeling each other up on the hood was a better idea than arguing. Works for me.

Sad day here--I will put the 'Vette in storage for winter, then the boat next to it. All the toys are put away for the winter.

Greetings! Great day so far - woke up at 3:30AM with a coughing fit (been trying to shake a cold for 3 weeks), then again at 4:30 with a headache, then made the mistake of looking at stock futures. One more day of work, then vacation for a week - heading up to northern MN with some friends and family. Have a good one, everybody!

Don't have any hot chicks handy to contribute, so I'll leave with this:

Good morning everyone, it's cold and dreary here in SW Michigan this fine morning. No great plans for the weekend.

Matthew, excellent pics today, especially the young lady nude behind the Ferrari. :thumbright:

Pianoguy, hope you feel better soon, glad to see your sense of humor is not affected.....got a mental picture of her with legs in air and flowers, well, very funny.

Here's mine:

I'm headed to Lowe's this morning to buy one piece of interior molding. I bought all the molding to finish the upstairs yesterday then some dumbass cut one piece too short. I hate workin' on houses.

Sunday will be fun. My buddy's got a new engine in one of his Nascars that needs broken in. He's taking both his cars and some others are coming out. V8 thunder melody. Hope I get to do a couple of laps again.

Good Morning Gurus!

Man, I'm glad it's Friday. Been kind of a shitty week. I turn 39 today. My wife will be 40 in about two weeks. I bet that will be fun.

I do not celebrate birthdays, so nothing special going on, but there is a new restaurant in our little "town" that I hope to check out Saturday for lunch. Home made fried chicken! YUM!

I'm hoping to finally get paid for some freelance work I did between October and December of LAST YEAR in the next week or so. If that happens (not holding my breath) then I will be able to pick up my new MacBook Pro. So that's kind of exciting.

I feel bad for you guys that have to put your cars away for the winter. I can drive mine pretty much all year. Just a couple days here and there with snow on the ground. I'll be putting a lot more miles on the Ruby after my company van goes away at the end of December. Kinda looking forward to it, actually.

Have a super day, everyone!

Work on Saturday, heading to the local dragstrip on Sunday, and relaxing on Monday. Rainy and cool today, but Sat and Sunday are supposed to be nice. Don't have to put any toys away down here, play all year 'round.

I'm going to grab a bite to eat, then I'm going to swap from the low-rise Weiand #8120 intake on my car to a Team G # 7530 intake. It's supposed to fit under hood.

At this point, I expect it to cost me both ET and MPH at the track. I'm going to the ANRA Nostalgia drags tomorrow and Sunday at Famoso, to see what she does. The engine will then be pulled the following weekend.

Just a $55 regrind from camonics

Brad - Hope you feel better.

Tommy - I have no idea, just an internet gal I found.

Wes - if it's gonna cost ET/MPH why change it?

Ramrod - is that an internet hunny or some softcore stuff you've been hiding on the side...hehe

Happy B-day CSS996!!
For those of you who are sick besides, me - get well soon... No weekend plans except getting well.
Found out today the car got finished, but then the headlights quit rotating. SHIT! We'll see what the cause of that is Monday.

Have a good Friday what's left of it!
