she stalks him on facebook (she's nosey). and every couple weeks he comes up with some BS, like he posted a question as to whether he should get the new M5 or 911 or maserati. then the next week he posted "i've decided to go back to medical school."

i just wonder what this dude thinks of himself. kind of hard to get a 911 when you work for a cleaning business and hard to go back to medical school when you've barely made it out of high school.

i hate liars. btw i'm a professional MMA fighter.

At least you have something to fall back on when the milk business goes sour

I have a buddy like that... except he just lies to chicks in bars. Never any really intention of a relationship beyond one night. He's usually a lawyer, or a Doctor or some other ish... Really he's a Cadillac tech. Tell, you what though it seems to work, he hauls in some serious @$$, and he's not exceptionally good looking.

Nice..... I work at a place where raises are frozen and no hiring with limited exceptions. Welcome to the no growth economy.

Anyway, speaking of the economy. Some places continue to charge high prices even in these times.
I'm looking for some help finding a local place to mount/balance tires on my OEM wheels. Looking for someone that would do a decent job so I don't get massive vibrations or weird tread wear. I would be willing to buy tires from the place if they are competitive with prices I can get on-line. I would like to go back for after-market rims and wheels later when money isn't so tight or maybe stretch some money to get them now. Any suggestions?

RT/Tuning in Lansdale can hook you up. They have a state of the art Hunter alignment rack and all the other stuff to go along with it. They've setup a few of the guys on this board, myself included.

sure thing brotha.

this place is like a crazy girlfriend. you know you need to break up with her before you pick up her crazy habits but she keeps coming up with new tricks to keep you signed on.

don't get me wrong i am still looking for something else. i am looking for an ENT to start a tertiary care clinic with. but that is a tall order.

edit: my ent friend in nyu just texted me saying he'd also like to start a private practice. anyone know how to write a business plan.

+1 on r/t tuning. i gotta call vince to see if he can sort out what we spoke about, marc.

if you go to them robert, then just buy your tires online and bring them. they can get them for you too probably.

good point Dan, I believe they are an autoroized tire rack installer, so you can purchase your tires online and have them shipped directly to them. Thats what I did with the Blizzak LM-22's I just picked up.

Tirerack for a nice wheel/tire package when you have the money. Evo X wheels are fairly cheap in the for-sale section and I think they would be a nice upgrade for your car. R/T Tuning is an awesome shop...
