Why do they call it a Happy Birthday when you have to Go to the Motor Vehicle Licence Bureau and RENEW your Plates and your Driver's licence?/..By the time you get out of there you have spent 150 Bucks..What the Hell is there to be Happy About?..Now I'm 'EFFIN" Broke!

Well, they get money so it's happy for them!

Have a great birthday man - even if you are $150 lighter!

It's HAPPY because you get to drive your RX-7, just think of all the poor idiots that drive around in cars they barely ever need to fix, get way better gas milage and are much more comfortable....



Nick buddy when are you coming back to ottawa? No one wears a jump suit quite like you do!

Um... thanks.... I think. lol

I can hear the song in the back ground *fat guy in a little coat....*

Not sure when I will be back. The only way I'll be there in the winter is if I have to go for work, which is entirely possible. Chances are however I'll be in town in the summer for a few days. If so, we will all definately have to get together!

Dave - still working on that wiring. I took the whole cluster out, but had to put it all back in to go to work. Will keep on it!

Tools are always key. Can't do much without 'em. I'm learning that now. Work has begun on my 7 and there's been a few CT trips.

Accross the river we've got to the end of the month....

So we can spend the $150 on partying, and then VISA it later

Happy Birthday. I think rathmar said it best.
