fuel pump is FINALLY in!

as many of you know...I have been waiting to put in my fuel pump ever since I got the dang car! well, i put it in recently. wow does it ever run well now! i just have to put in my SAFC2 so that I can tune the car to run leaner (less fuel) at idle, cruise and mid-throttle, and a bit richer (more fuel) at full throttle. it has proven to be much more fun to drive lately!!!!!

"messy" stamp

so yesterday, E came home with a page of pictures that he was supposed to colour. well, I guess he was in a rush or something cause he scribbled the crayon on each... so the teacher puts a "Messy" stamp on the sheet. E was devestated. I mean...imagine...as a 5 year old all the stamps you are used to seeing are stars, or happy faces, but now there is one with an unhappy face with scribbles on a few places.

like this one, but much meaner...
