Best post in this thread. Perhaps the best JP's ever made

Brian, On top of what was shared above, I VERY highly suggest given your skill set and background that you work to have a professional in the industry do your resume. Cost is around $700 but they will not only do the resume, cover letters, follow up letters, online posting at high end places like ladders.com, etc, but do a lot of personal coaching. End of day, I did it and I feel it was 110% helpful and a strong reason why I landed the interviews I did. I had several very good opportunities and several comments on my layout and wording. Alesia Benedict GETINTERVIEWS.COM I met her while working in NYC year ago and I knew it was going to be money well spent. Look into and feel free to PM me with any questions.

Man I grew up playing Wolfenstein....downloading this version now. Looking forward to wasting some late night hours after everyone is in bed. Thanks!

The relative danger to those around me is greater when I fart in public than driving 72 in a 65. Give me a break. It's a scam to collect revenue that's all that kind of ticket is. Bust a yahoo on a bike going 80 and weaving through traffic...different story. Thankfully getting busted for 72/65 seems to be a rarity. I go 72-74 all day long every day so any cops on here can feel free to look for me on 270. I'll be the guy getting past by 75% of those around me.

72 in a 55 I can see....still doesn't strike me as bad but it's the rule. Fuck it most of the time. 72 in a 65, pisses me off as it's just a money making BS Scam. Bust fuckers flying by at 80+ and or weaving. Let the guy just clipping along with traffic at 72mph go already... My only insight is to just keep eyes wide open. Knock on wood I've not been bust in 8 years but I attribute that to luck and just paying attention. The great thing about the new Bright Blue LED's is you can see them miles down the road and spot a speed trap like this more easily as often they have several vehicles pulled over. Can't have all those cruisers just sitting around not working can we. I find watching for brake lights very effective. Run Waze/trapster or both in the background on my phone most of the time too. There's always someone around that will post up a spotted trooper hiding. Improves the odds that's for sure. Lastly, try and find a fool that wants to prove he's faster. Easier to do than you think. In my MS3 I usually go for BMW's or Audi's. Those fools always want to prove they are faster than a little hatchback. Egg them on and let them set the pace and put about 1/8-1/4 mile on you and then just keep approaching them. They become your detector and cost you nothing except setting aside the urge to prove them wrong. Ditched my V1 years ago and haven't missed it.

^^ This. Ultimately it's up to you and you'll know once you hold and fire them. I thought the BG380 was going to be what I wanted but the LC9 turned out the best for me and I knew after firing both.

Brian If you can wait until this weekend or if no one comes forward before that, I can put that together for you. Pretty simple stuff. I'm booked through Friday but the wife is gone this Saturday so I should have some time without interruptions Just PM me and we can meet up. I'm in the NW Columbus/Dublin/Worthington area over near The Anderson's General Store.

I grew up in the business and am amazed this shit still happens. I go through it too. Perhaps my direct approach causes it but in the end, I have ended up eventually finding someone that just wants to sell a car to someone willing to buy one. Use the phone and internet and eventually someone will deal. Key is much like with a house, never be afraid to walk or not buy.

^^ we like them as well. However, my wife has become a pro at finding high-end/quality items at various consignment shops and used furniture stores. As trish said, most new stuff is either highly pricey or poor quality or both, thus we put off buying an entire set at one time and instead have found various pieces at different times. We did buy a nice head/foot board new, but the rest has been as above and has been of very high quality and finishes.

but be forewarned that it's big. like trying to use a magnum 45 as your Conceal Carry.

I have a pretty powerful i7 base PC with a hefty graphics card and 24gb ram no issues with 4k. I use sony Vegas pro.

I smell breach of contract....

Maybe I'm alone at being impressed with the 13.67 on the 40+ yr old car.

He's a freak about hot stuff. I've seen him tackle similarly hot wings at other places and love them. We'll see

I am planning on going in my MazdaSpeed 3 tonight. My brother in law is in town and we're planning on attacking some atomic wings at QSL tonight.

at 70mph you're likely at 3,500 rpm. 4th you're well into the 4's. If it's sputtering into the 3's and 4s rpm wise, you need to have someone look at it. Side question.....do you know if the previous owner tried to flash a bad tune on it? Check the potential modification points and the program that's flashed onto it. I use a very mild tune on mine but can easily flash back to stock. Will bump it up to a more aggressive tune once I add a down pipe and higher capacity fuel pump to support things. I'm in no hurry though.

MS3's have plenty of power/torque. You shouldn't however push the gas pedal down under 3k in 4th or 5th; you absolutely need to downshift. The car moves into boost at about 2,900rpm. On the highway the good part is in 6th at 72mph you're right at about 3k rpm wise thus passing in 6th doesn't really require a shift. If you want to really move past someone, just take it to 5th. If you want to sound like a bat out of hell passing, drop to fourth and power shift into 5th.

yes.

Countryside Heating and Cooling.....Wayne Quail. Good guy. Friend of mine now. I met him through a nieghbor a few months back. Did a full HVAC system for both me and another neighbor for a great deal and everything is perfect. Bryant System all the way around. I highly recommend him. Knows his stuff. Had our old systems out and new ones in and working in less than half a day. Cleaned up everything and didn't leave a spec of dirt. He also does Generator systems. Didn't do ours but he does them. 614-266-6631. Feel free to tell him Tim sent you to jog his memory. He won't know what CR is if you mention it

Have you had it since early on or is this a new to you car? BOV won't help other than sound. Stock ones can leak. Start there test wise. Also the MS3 runs in a recirculation mode not venting out. Switching that will cause issues. In addition to the above I ask because by the factory tune the cars are crippled boost wise in first and second gear.

Good for you for keeping it cool. After caring for my father before he passed, I have gained a new found respect and understanding for how bad getting old sucks and their trying to remain independent as human beings.. I think everyone tends to roll eyes when a blue-hair pulls out in front them rolling 5 below the limit, or parks all fucked up. I used to as well. However, in the grand scheme, I hope to be independent and able to get out well into my white to no-hair days and that's all they are really trying to do. Like you said, he really just wanted a chili and who knows, probably served himself and paid his dues. Old-man-tan, that's what I call the color of his car
