time to give a new speech in school..
I picked a pretty hard persuasive topic because the teacher and pretty much everyone think it's strange and are against it. so I'll have to make it good. anyone just happen to be anti recycling experts..? my purpose is to persuade my audience that recycling paper and plastic is a waste of money, energy and time

aledelic - That's gonna be a hard subject to discuss. Especially in today's condition with everyone into the whole organic stuff. Best of luck with that!

Better to spend some money now and to keep it out of our land fills.

except with different words and 8 minutes max.. I have 11 credible sources so far supporting my side but it'll still be hard to convince...

So as some of you may have read I've been working on another project that isn't my car. Today, I went from dabbling in bike restoration to jumping off the deep end.

Name:  Photo0478.jpg
Views: 26
Size:  85.0 KB

Had the frame stripped of all components. $20 they said! Then I find that re installation is gonna be closer to $150! But I think I can find cheaper around here or do it myself.

Flat black bike isn't going to be quite as cool. They also recommended I leave the sprockets and gears alone as far as paint. Same with wheels, but I might spray them anyway.

Anyone good with bikes? Good ideas?

this video makes me miss my sedan. a lot. I spent so many hours with that car even if it was doing nothing but driving home alone late at night in the rain listening to music and then staring at it in the garage just thinking about how I love the car I drive. I don't have that emotional attachment that I had with that car with my avant... just figured I'd share. it's a nice video.
