I put $2k into my retirement account per month.

It sucks to be a bean counter.

Oh I know...beaners make good scratch....I just could never imagine myself doing such a boring task for my entire life. But I admit to being an adreinline junkie...

What's funny is, Im retired and only working PT and still put close to 2grand in savings every month....that is if I dont spend it on car parts....

Potato Head better not come down to L.A with road rage, they'll put a cap in his ass and take his rims.

It's not boring I've been in manufacturing since 2006. I'm not public accountant.

Ran an Aluminum foundry, Steel foundry, Injection Mould company, High Voltage Switchgear company, and now I am working for a family owned packaging company. I am part of the Senior Management team and the owner's "right hand". I manage the accounting team and oversee purchasing and inventory.

Not boring at all. I make good money and it's a steady 40 hour work week. I'm home every night by 5:30.

Funny how the narrative always gets twisted here and the legend is far from reality. I've never posted a "rage" video.

I think once I passed a guy that stopped about 100 feet back from the light and I simply went around him. That's not rage.

I remember that one. That was good, but not rage. You posted it asking if that shit happened to us as well, and we said it does, mostly in turn lanes. A kind of passive/aggressive cock-block.

The 'rage' video I think of is when you were gunning the engine in the mall parking lot in neutral, just creeping along, and scaring a couple of women on the curb. The Rabbit vid was my favorite, with you in the Mopar stuck in the snow in the driveway at The Gulag. That was priceless.

Would there be any interest if I did a version of "It Sucks To Be Fat" to the Huey Lewis tune "I't's Hip to be Square"? I could do it if folks want it.

LOL. That wasn't rage either. Do you remember the story behind that one?

Because there was a LOT more to it. But everyone just remembers that I scared a woman. Which was pretty funny, but it wasn't on purpose.

It's weird living in the concrete jungle and there's bunnies everywhere around here. In the summer they will come into the backyard and chill with us. Even if we have tunes on. They don't mind. As long as you don't make loud noises or sudden movements they are pretty chill. And they love hanging out under the cars. There was a few out front last night.

You probably were wearing a OU shirt where USC/UCLA are located. Could have been one Duck fan missing.

Sounds like a good gig....better than just a CPA I guess. Still, too boring a job for my liking. As long as it puts food on the table and wheels on the Vette, it's all good....

I think when you get to $10K for wheels, you can start considering CF wheels, not sure, but remember such vaguely.

Can I just say I enjoyed the video of you yelling at random 3rd World drivers that clearly couldn't drive worth a shit, and don't belong in your country in the first place? Like to see moar of that kind of content.
