i'm good... cars good. Ended up spinning 4 times, rubbed the 4" bump they have and that kept me from going over. finally stopped looking towards the lake and my front tires right against the bump. I was going about 65 - 70 when it happened. took forever to climb the hill after that. everytime the clutch grabbed the back end would swing out. time to get the winter beater out.
it was wierd though. road was dry and had a bit of light dry snow blowing around and traffic was fine but all of a sudden from where i lost control on there was quite a bit of snow stuck to the road and it was slippery as hell.. not to mention there were cars, vans, trucks galore in the ditch after that period.

So now I'm getting the stereo from Visions. Got a pretty good deal from Logan there. Not getting the 12" anymore, just getting an Alpine V-Power 1 channel amp and and Alpine 10" Type-S sub.
Have to wait until Sun now, instead of tomorrow if I went to the other place, but it's gonna be worth it
edit. and I'm only paying an extra $50 to get a better sys than what the other place was gonna give me. They were just gonna be giving me an AB amp which I heard is pretty much bottom of the line. He ended up giving me $235 of what everything would normally retail at

I heart alpine | haha yeah I know. I got to hear what the sub sounded like and it was pretty nice. I know it would be a lot better if I were getting a higher end sys, but this will do quite well

WHOA, My brother apparently was in a bank robbery today. And this kid is freakin hilarious, I swear he smokes so much weed that it's built up in his system. So, he's in the bank trying to cash a cheque, when these two guys behind him start getting into an argument and then they both pull guns and tell him and the others to get on the ground, which of course he did, lol. So, he gets home, and starts having a leisurely convo with my dad:
(after several minutes of a casual conversation)
Dad: Did you get the money you owe me today?
Sean: Not quite, you see, I was in the bank, trying to get the money, and then it was robbed. . . .
HAHA, THEN, just to make it that much more amazing after the robbery he goes up to the teller and tries to cash the cheque, but she tells them their closed, lol!
