Any of you guys track your cars? You should come to an event with the SCDA (http://www.scda1.com/). I have gone to a couple and I am pretty good friends with the family that runs the events. It's like 300 bucks and its hella fun. We should get like an evo meet/track day going this year/next year.
be weary of paypal. the couple of times i've had issues, they we about as useful as **** on a bull. i ended up having to open a dispute with my credit card and paypal got pissed. too bad for them. amex got my money back.

last time i had an issue, paypal had like 5 layers of people you needed to talk to and i could never get a straight answer...i hate paypal

I have to go lay the smackdown on Charter. Charter FTMFL.

paypal disputes usually get no where, and if they do go in your favor, it still might take forever to get the money back

unfortunately Paypal is a staple when buying from others online.
I pay with a CC that way I can fight it with them. They usually credit your account immediately

FIOS is no better- I consolidated my cell phone and FIOS with them (you save $8/month when you do) and I kept asking them for the total (after reminding them repeatedly that I have a data plan on my phone) and she gave me a price that doesn't resemble what I am actually getting charged. The rep with whom I spoke the second time told me the prices are predicated on a $39.99/month phone bill. I was like??W?W?!?!???

They all suck. On the bright side, I now have gigabit ethernet
