I would tend to agree... I went to Community College (DCCC) and really enjoyed it. I used it as a way to get into a 4yr school since I never took the SAT's. You have to take it somewhat serious though...

I'm the worlds worst student usually. I never actually took the sat I actually used it to take a nap. Didn't apply to college, but I took the act and got a 31 on it. So I'm really just bsing around until I transfer into a 4year.

I was possibly one of the worst students in my class in HS, didn't give two ish's about anything except parties and chicks. The ONLY year I asserted myself what so ever was my senior year, only because I wanted to walk with my friends. I went to summer school or had a tutor yrs 7-11. College was different, I made honors numerous times. School really is what you make of it...

So you guys who was at Wachovia yesterday remembers my car didn't want to start and seemed like it was not getting any power, although all the electronics worked. Well, it did it again earlier, and had to get jumped again. I'm suspecting the fusible link is blown. Any ideas?

FYI, anyone looking for an FP Red should contact Jim. He's looking to upgrade to the black in the near future, and is looking for a local buyer for his 64mm red.

You know, I considered it, and then thought I'd rather get some wheels!

Chu I really think you have a dying battery. That battery was dead when I jumped it. Thats why it took so long to charge up and turnover. Cold tends to really f up a battery. To make matters worse you jad several runs that built up heat underhood which is also bad. The fact that it started afte we left the show tells me the alternator works but it was dead this morning. It doesnt take nearly as much amperage to run the electronics as it does to turn the starter. Next time watch the interior light when you try to crank it. If it dims but the starter just clicks then its probably the battery.

Better yet buy a voltmeter and see if its around 12 volts when off and about 14 at idle.
