After you've waited SO long, that you no longer want your parts LOL

BTW, as I'm building the database on the new website, I'll be including a section SPECIFIC not only for individual order status, but also ETA on the next shipment, when it departs, scheduled arrival time, delays, etc etc. No minute-to-minute updates w/ GPS triangulation though

Damn it! I must have instantaneous tracking confirmation of the location! I have some friends in the CIA who could possibly help us out, let me make some calls.

An online order status service would be awesome. I ordered my parts only a couple days ago, and already I'm getting antsy.

Daniel, I guess it would be a bad idea to tell ya that your parts already arrived in Japan? LOL. No joke; just gotta wait for the container to leave, cuz your parts are HEAVY. Solo shipping would be VERY expensive...

Ramy, when do you expect to have the new site and tracking system in place? Will the tracking system also work for tracking GB stuff? Thats a really cool idea you got there.

Just messin with ya Ramy. =P

I was digging around earlier for some old pics that I attached to a post in '04, in which I declared that I would be finishing up and begin painting within two weeks. Just went out to the garage to look at the FD .... and apparently that didn't happen.

As ambitious as my intentions are, good money says that the car ain't gonna be done anytime soon after I get the parts anyways.

No, wait, false alarm. Our stuff hasn't even been shipped yet. It'll get shipped when they finish making the boat.

Something tells me that "boat" would sink if you put even one container on it.

I'm good man...I'm good. Life's tough, but then again, that's what makes it worthwhile, right? Just wish I had more stock in the "sleep" department =-/ I'm *exhausted.*

And yourself? How you doin man?

How is that one chick that I gave a ride to at 7Stock?
Wow...good memory! She's good...happily married, living overseas.

Oh and Gene's right; it was @ JGTC/D1. I haven't been to 7Stock yet, although it looks like I MAY be able to roll through to this one...
