some new help... Yeah, I recruited E to help out with the blog cause Bekah and I are both pretty busy. [well, Bekah moreso than I, but still] So yeah, eventually he'll post something. Then you can comment on that. Ok? posted by dave @ 3:04 PM 9.22.2004
So I had some time on my hands.... I found some old pictures from school last year, and look what happened. New picture at the top. That sunset was gettin a little cheesy for me, sorry. I dunno what to call that new picture. I think its title should be "reality." Yeah, that sounds good. Reflects the dark reality of the world we're living in. It's our job to be servants of our Lord and be a beacon in that mess. Sound kinda dismal? Yeah, it would be, were we fighting against the world alone. But we're not, so it's ok. We got that guy on our side who won't give up on us no matter how much we screw up or rebel against Him. How cool is that? I think we need to think more. Alot more. At least me. If I just put some thought into my actons, I could overcome all the temptations set before me, with divine help. There's nothing He can't do. What else do we need to know? Well, I guess what He wants us to do. Share our faith. For the first time in 5 1/2 years, I'm in an environment where I'm not surrounded by "Christians" all the time. I'm finally realizing what reality's really like. Being in Christian education sheltered me from what really goes on. Now it's kinda shocking. I need to be outspoken about what I believe, no matter what the consequences. Who cares if I'm shunned? I could glorify my Lord in the process, and try to be different from the stereotypical auto students, be a reflection of the Light in the surrounding darkness, so to speak. So I've said the same thing over and over again, have I? Ok then, here's a challenge. What are you doing to fit in with the students around you? Are you doing anything? If not, then I applaud you. If you are, take a look at what you're doing, and see if it's glorifying to the Lord and then deal with it from there. Can we try this? Let's see...if all the like 10 people who read this blog can start doing this, then we can have 10 lights in the darkness, and in my homemade theory about light, light causes more light. Huh? Cause I said so, that's why. Do it! [shakes fist] posted by dave @ 5:43 PM 9.16.2004
? I did stuff today! It was fun. I cleaned out my car and like vacuumed it and washed the windows and stuff. Then I went to AutoZone and got a new window crank and some fuses...so now my window rolls down and the idiot lights on the dash work! How cool is that?! I gotta go back tomorrow and get some 5 amp fuses for the speedometer light. But yeah. I even cleaned out my trunk! It's crazy! All I have left to do is replace the heater core and fix the stuck vent cable, which both are relatively easy. Then I gotta give it new brake pads and get the rotors turned. Maybe I could look into fixing the squeaky suspension too...then it'd be all good! For the first time ever! But I gotta get the new car on the road too...that'll be even more fun! Yeah, what else did I do today...? Oh, I know. I went out and bought a new microwave and installed it in our kitchen cause our old one's been broken for like a month...and I started putting screws in the floor in the hallway to get rid of the squeaks, one of the steps towards getting carpet. I also helped my mom out at work with her computalator. [figure out how to pronounce that one] Yeah, I was kinda busy. It was fun! I felt like a grownup! Now all I need is a job...I'm actually gonna actively look for one now, cause I need money. I really wanna get that new car on the road! Then I wanna modify the crap out of it! It'll be sweet! Really, howmany of your cars [with automatic transmissions] can squeal the tires going into 2nd and 3rd? Go try it sometime. It won't happen in a stock car. It's fun when you car can do it tho, you'll understand more when you ride in and/or drive my new one. And next week my friend Joe and I are gonna put a new exhaust on his 5.0 Mustang, to make it louder and make it go faster, both good things. My new car will shake the ground as it goes by, idling! That's what happens when you have a built 440 with a rough cam, headers and 3 inch dual exhaust goin into Dynomax mufflers with no tailpipes. Quality, if you ask me. Then we paint the car a dark color, and it'll be sweet. I was thinkin about putting some 20 or 22 inch wheels on it, to give it that new style, but some of my Mopar friends thing thats like blasphemy or something. I still think itd look cool. Whatever. Some 17 inch Cragar S/S's would look just as nice I guess, with some nice fat tires on them. It'd be sweet. Just wait. It'll look stock on the outside [cept for the wheels, but thats a very common modification on any old car] but then have like 600-700 horsepower, enough to burn anything on the street, including, but not limited to: Firebirds, Trans Ams, Camaro SS's, Mustang GTs, Mustang Cobras, Corvette Z06's, any/all imports, even Vipers! Oboy, I can't wait! It's gonna be so much fun! Who would suspect a giant sedan would have such capabilities? Nobody cept youguys, that's who! on a sidenote: dave's car of the post: holy crap. this is what my new yorker's gonna be like. does that car look fast? no. is it? take a guess. it turns low 10's. that's more than 2 seconds faster than a viper. it's fast. posted by dave @ 9:27 PM 9.12.2004

so I'm a jenyus... Yesh, verymuchso. Here's my new plans. Plan number one: Chainsaw powered bicycle. Does it explain itself? No? Ok. Here goes nothing. So I get a chainsaw, take off the blade and the bar, and mount it to a bike. Then I take the bike chain off the regular pedals, and put it on the saw, where the blade used to be. Done and done. 35mph bike with burnout and wheelie capabilities. If you want more fun, just cut the tires off. That's sure to make it interesting. Paint it gold, take off the brakes, and have a blast. Plan number 2: Pop on tap in car. Still workin on this one. Any ideas? All I know is I need cold pop in the car and I'm poor and can't afford one of those fancy car fridges. posted by dave @ 10:15 PM |
