Halllllllooooowwwwwwww ouuut thheerree!!! What's up? Been a while I know I apologize. I guess I stopped coming around much when the Probe section got so sloooowwww. Anyways, some cool news - got a 1989 Mazda RX-7 Turbo II. Still have the Probe for my winter car and daily driver. The RX-7 is very nice. I am intrigued by the rotary motor. That little 1.3l puts out 200 horsepower, not too bad. I can't believe the new RX-8 motor with the Renesis engine will be putting out about 250 horsepower out of a 1.3l engine, naturally aspirated.. anyways, yeah what's up? Tommorow I am going to fix the crankshaft damper on my Probe, it wobbles the belt. Hope there is nothing else damaged once I get the pulley off. Anyways, yeah this is a general off topic section so yeah I'm just beeing off topic here.

Good deal Vulcan, RX-7s are fun to drive. The first 5-speed I ever drove was a 83 RX-7. Anyway, are you enjoying the weather up in Alaska ? It's warmer up there than it's been here in Georgia. Well, it's warming up today

Well lets see, my little Weather Channel icon says that it's 34 degrees outside.. right now it's sunny, but the sun will be going down soon, like around 3 pm or so. It comes up around 11 in the mornin'.

It's really strange in the summer time too, it'll be midnight and light outside. complete oposite of the winter.. anyways yeah the weather has been kind of strange, we've just been getting this constant jet stream of warm air from the south pacific blowing north directly at us so we've seen alot of flooding and warm weather, really strange, there is no snow.. it better be here by Christmas dammit!

Snow in N.GA, TN, and the Carolinas but none in Alaska. That is weird, hopefully you'll have some by Christmas.

Well good news, we got about a foot of snow last night, and some more is expected. Hopefully this time around it will stay! (Wanna get me a used snowmobile)
