After sinking nearly 10k into a suzuki samurai wheeler then subsiquently getting bored with wheeling I sold it and bought two FCs this summer. 90GTU & 91TII. I had an 87 base my senior year in high school and 1st couple years of college. It was a problematic money pit and I still loved it. My new FCs seem better. But visa/discover still get lots of buisness from me....

I'm really into tattoos, do you by chance have any chinese caligraphy or japanese kanji drawings or pictures stockpiled? I've been looking for some things that I just can't seem to find lately.

I am a Framer/Hanger. I frame buildings with steel studs, hang drywall, and install suspended ceilings. I have done this for four years, working for my great uncle's company. Before that I was a small engine mechanic. I had done that since I was about 13. I spend about 1 percent of my $ on the FC. I'd spend more but the wife would freak out.
