Started the move today. Massive cluster. Started with having to install the Thule Sidearm bike carrier without some tools as they were all packed so we tried to eye the 16" set back of the front arm. Bad idea as the bike tried to climb out of the track and jump off the roof on the highway as it was not placed correctly. That slowed us down as I ended up having to use moving tape to hold the bike in the track. Managed to make it into the mountains before Pittsburgh and hit a freaking blizzard with the S4 on Pilot Super Sport tires and two bikes on the roof of the Subaru. Clusterfuck all the way around.

Are you trying to tell me it was not "driving by bouncing of walls and other cars"? I am not sure I can believe that.

The GTI seats are very comfortable. The bottom bolsters on the ST are easily 3-4 inches more narrow than the GTI.
-
I was. Definitely faster than the XT. Not sure what the Car and Driver drivers were doing to get matching 0-60 times. Tech seemed nice but those seats were torture devices. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There were a few ST there. One, just to the side of the three Rs had a huge intercooler so I assume it was tuned like you were mentioning. There were 9 Golf Rs there. I guess they are just all too common now.

Some pics from Katie's this morning and the Alexandria one previously.

I am shopping insurance now for the new place. I am getting a price from my current vendor of almost $1,000 every six months for the cars while Geico comes in at $542 for the same coverage. Is Geico really terrible coverage or is State Farm just a rip off?
-
That looks seriously good.

Going to have to spin some Tribe tonight.

Spent the day in Illinois. Short client meeting but hung out in Hinsdale the rest of the day. Found a great beer/wine store, Whole Foods here has a whole FFF beer section, great butcher shop with Prime Brisket, found a decent home audio shop and two decent bike shops. Have not found guitar or camera shops but I am sure they are here. Ferrari dealer is 2 blocks from the house so I take that as a good sign.

I really think your best bet is to buy my practically NIB BHSE and keep it in the box to replace yours if it is murdered by dust or humidity.
-
I assume the beautiful, beautiful music is still there in the box. Some day I might let it out.
-
I just leave mine in the box. No dust getting on it there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have spent too much money on two boutique Parlor guitars and found neither ever got played. Strange size and nuts are interesting to have in the collection, but I would typically go with a Dread or at least an OM if I am getting a boutique guitar. I did see a Nerd Money ATM in Chicago and thought of you.

Happy Birthday Al.

One of my oldest friends in the world, I like to think all the good he does is making up for all the evil I do.

I do have a 3 car garage now. But I think that will be for bikes and crap for the time being.

Drove the Audi for the first time in, I think, 10 weeks today to get the oil changed. Sitting in traffic all morning and afternoon is a great way to enjoy a sports sedan. Did see this at REI when I went to pick up another rooftop bike carrier for the trip to Chicago. Still really want one of these. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It is always recommended to coat the interior of a new oven with bacon grease before putting it into regular use.

Sunday out in South Riding is a great one for you with about a dozen STs in attendance all lined up in a row. Went back through my pics but I did not take any of that row, but it seems to be a Focus gathering. They typically do that one early and then everyone drives to some other meet at a wings place or something. There is one in Alexandria I believe on Sunday but I have never been.

Okay, it is time to start thinking about new TVs for the new house. What is the HC approved 65+" 4k TV nowadays?
