wet boiling point doesn't matter much if you flush the fluids often.

That storm was stupid. I can't believe I did as much prep as I did (like clean up anything that would blow around). I've been in category 3-4 hurricanes when living in Miami and this was a stupid rain storm with a little wind.

That's right! I'm hatin' on the storm!

Irene was a little *****. I was up between 3-4am puking my guts out and all it was doing was rain with a little wind.

Were you puking because you were sick or because you're hiding your eating disorder from your wife and kids?

Had to run my gen for 6hrs when power was out to keep the basement dry. That's about it. Peak winds of 56mph.

I'm watching Australian v8 supercars racing. It's wild just like British touring car races.

sick. think it was something I ate. still a little shakey but feeling much better.

FINALLY done working on the E30. took it for a nice test drive and she seems to be running well. only negatives are that it looks like its a 4x4 (hoping the suspension needs to settle a little more) and the brakes suck, but I'm pretty sure thats due to the pads cause I have all new rotors, lines & fluids.

Are you going to run an open exhaust on it?

Needs a fuel line and spark plug at the exhaust tip, so he can shoot flames like the old school street rodders.

You guys had it good.. I just got power back, lost it at 9:45 last night. Winds were so bad around 2:30 in the morning, I almost woke up wifey for us to go sleep downstairs. I was pretty worried about the trees.

Ours went out around 10:30-11 last night and came back on at 2:30 today. It wasn't bad at all. I figured we would go for days before they got it back on. I drove for an hour this morning trying to find a gas station to get some coffee and every one I came across between Parkesburg and Downingtown was out of power except one Turkey Hill with dozens of cars in the lot.

I had no idea there was such a widespread power outage. My wife and I lazed around watching movies all day then decided to go out for has and a fee things to make dinner to find that out neighborhood was the only thing around with power. We certainly took our tv, on demand and DVR for granted!
