Sad day Today for sure..

Today a guy I knew passed away. He worked at a machine shop where I use to take my engine work to. His name is Brian.

Brian was a good person and did the best work of anyone I know. Sometimes we would talk about him getting his own machine shop and his future. Gosh, Brian was great..

Sorry it's hard for me to write about this right now but I had to write..

See ya,

August Sunsets in Cali

The Sunsets are wonderfull. I try and watch them as much as possible. Life is so busy that we forget to look at what God has givin us. Sometime the Summer sunset dances against the trees in the late evening. The greenish golden glow against the blue sky. Life is short, try not to miss the little things that life in general is all about. I'll try and bring my camara tomorrow and show you..

Life & E-bay

E-Pay I should say.. Sometimes you can find deals but every now and then ya run into snags.

Someone was selling switches I need for my Mustang race car. They stated in the auction that if you buy more then one item from them they will discount the shipping $5.00 bucks. Cool! So I write them and ask about the combined shipping of items after I bid. I was just conferming the auction discounts.. They came back to me in an e-mail stating that "We just discount $2.00 bucks on combined orders". Danm, that sux.

So, Ok.. I get an invoice from them with "Zero" discounts, yep Nada.. Zilch! What a bunch of Jack-asses. So there was a spot on the invoice for discounts before I pay. So you guessed it, I deducted the $5.00 bucks anyways.. Well I wonder what is gonna happen next?

How can somebody put auctions on E-Pay and have no idea that they stated the amount for combined shipping.

Oh well, just a recent experience for me.. hahaa. Knowing my luck that will be pissed I discounted the $ and send me junk parts.. Well their sales ad stated 1 year Guarantee .. so I guess we will see.. hahaa.. :=)

Just another week

Funny time dosen't seem like much untill you start writing to a blog. I've never really kept track of much, well money.. I did, but for the most part it's just another day. I think keeping track actually helps find the valley's and slopes in your feeling. For the most part I'm a person that looks to perfection to a degree. When my goals are not met with my expectations then I feel I've failed. The failure should be looked at as a lesson learned but for the most part it's taken to heart. Yes there are ways to take steps to not being defeated but.. when we talk time and goal factor the small steps sometines get's put aside. Well not much going on tonight.. just some thinking for tomorrow..
