this is more or less how i got my badges off the car when u was putting my UKDM badge on.

i got the badges soaked my washing the car, then used waxed dental floss to get under the sticky tape holding them on. once i got that off i used a combination of my fingernail and goo gone to remove any residue and bug and tar remover to polish the spot up a bit after.

Got the wing off with ease. Apparently 3m tape doesn't like 20 degree weather.

I basically took out the bolts, wet down the edges with wd40 and used hanging wire to saw through the tape in 10 minutes. I remember it taking a lot longer the first time I did that.

The rexspeed type c spoiler looks "o-k". Will give it a few days. It does the job covering the holes.

The J&S incident happened to Garret's car when his dump tube burned through one of the front straps. Wasn't that much damage, just a mangled rear rota wheel.

I haven't seen any like it other than ramps. I don't if anyone else has.

Bah. Santa needs to bring me a new xbox. Mine just crapped itself last night. No red ring, no nothing. It just freezes. Oh well. She had a good run.

generally shortly after boot. independent of a disk being in it, the hard drive being in it, the network cable being in it, or any other variables i can eliminate.

i looked around online a it today and found a few suggestions on how to possibly rectify it, but short of clearing the cache in the system settings i've tried just about everything else. the annoying irony there being that i can't even get to the system settings to clear the cache because it locks up before then.

oh well. i've wanted an xbox with a black case for a while now. bigger hdd, built in wifi, and matching my furniture ftw. i've always hated the ipod-ish white cased ones.

It's a conspiracy.
