I have no doubt this can be cleared up for a small percentage of that total. I thought it had been but I guess my non filed return from last year hosed things up if I'm reading the paperwork correctly. I figure in the end I will pay under $3K in total due taxes and penalties, it's just a matter of making certain my returns are properly filed this time (already done).

Where are you staying? Just find a residential street nearby that doesn't require a parking permit and cram your car there. Move it on street-cleaning day. Let me know if you want sneaky recommendations.

We ended up finding a hotel 1.1 miles from McCormack that accepted my Dad's reward points. Two nights for $190 with free parking!

It started as an enthusiast gathering, usually in the parking lots of coffee shops. Now it's overrun with assholes and douchebags who want to show off and rub their car in everyone's faces. And there's a splinter group that didn't like the "don't be an rear end in a top hat" guidelines called "Caffeine and Octanes" or some other retarded variations where being oval office is encouraged.

They shut down downtown to prevent rioting. There was 1 couch on fire as of the last time I checked a news site. hehe.

I enjoy poking fun at Colts fans who seem to think Manning is still their QB and some dude I don't even know threatened to kill me in a very public post before deleting it. So now I'm harassing him via PMs telling him i screen capped it and am going to the cops and he's having a meltdown.

This is certainly a blast from the 90's



I cant remember the last time that the liters went up faster than the dollars on a fuel pump! 18 months ago i was standing at Mt Dare Hotel pumping fuel that cost me $2.50 a litre!

I filled up for $1.92 a gallon for premium the other night, officially the cheapest I have paid for fuel in the 5 years of owning the MS6. And yesterday it was down to $1.87 in some places. The first fill up I maid was over $4 per gallon and in my fuel log there were a few pushing $5 a gallon. I like this alternate universe we've landed in, can we stay here a while?

Oh I have no doubt. But I'd be totally fine with this last the length of the year. Usually I don't bother being choosy when there's only a nickle difference but gas is literally half the price it was when I bought the guzzler, That's $25 per fill up I can toss at other things that need to be paid off.

So we went out for dinner tonight since I couldn't get off work for V-Day. Went to an upscale Japanese steakhouse that we like and had amazing food. The tables are u-shaped around the grill so the guy throws your food at you as it's done? You know the type?

So anyways, we sit next to this couple and their clearly a shut-in nerdy as gently caress son and they're celebrating his 27th year of being a weird creep and he starts trying to take a selfie and get my girlfriend in the frame. It was weird as gently caress. Like was he trying to instagram it and be like "here's this hot chick i'm totally not on a date with!" It got so uncomfortable we had to switch seats and then he got up and went and sat at the bar for the rest of the time we were there.

Awkward as gently caress.

Finally saw Episode 7. It was loving horrible, I would even say that episode 1 was far better than 7. And episode 1 was a loving joke. 1 was a joke, 2 was decent, it just had to set so much up for episode 3 though, which episode 3 was pretty awesome in terms of tying together every thing.

Also, the villains in episode 7 were loving AWFUL. Semi spoilers below. I figured every one who has wanted to see it has seen it by now.

By far this scares me a lot loving more than this . at least the Grand Moff Tarkin would strike the fear in you, the other guy is a loving child.
