lol, i'll correct your unloggedin post.

Thank goodness it's only my leg broken :P, but the only nurse keeping me busy is my girlfriend. I've got her taking care of my plenty, haha.

No staples or stitches in the leg any more! I got the big "Okay" to start putting weight on my leg again. It's gonna be a slow go, but I've got to go back to college in late August so I'm pretty motivated to get it back to normal. The only problem I'm currently facing is that the muscles in my ankle are stiff and I have to loosen them a lot. I can't even get my foot flat yet to stand straight up on it yet cause it's stuck kind of pointed down, but believe me its gonna get back to normal cause I'm not going thru another surgery unless its life or death, lol.

nice to be back in touch with you again,
until next time, cheers dude. ;)

hey dude,

i like the do or die idea, i really do, but since die is an option i think i'll pass, haha. my girlfriend already has one of those driving pieces for the ps2, i think i'll have her bring it over and play a lot of Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2 or something like that. it's my favorite, they have bimmers on that one, lol.

well, off to do some therapy. good luck in the meetings and ZZZZZZZZzzzzzz's, haha.

cheers.

Dude,

Need for speed Rocks !!! Have u played The New Hot Persuit yet ????

Niiccccce i have to say :cool:
I am a PC nut, never got into the console thing unfortunately, but i do enjoy a good PS session with my mates. .. they hate it when one of the puter guys ( me ) whips them, one of the console boys. :D

Have u ever had trouble with ur driver side morror ?
Busy working on the 318is and noticed that the passenger mirror grafts ok , but the driver one doesnt. I can hear the motor spinning inside but no movement. Hope the sun gears havent slipped or broken. had that happen on my 333 e30, what a mission!!!

Anywho... therapy sounds fun... dont spose the therapist is cute ?? If so i will happily take your place every other day...
Last time i ended up in physio the first day was a cutey pie of note... got all excited for the next session...l even arived early... only to be mauled by Gork the man-beast. Hairy ass MoFo. :evil:

Beetter get some work done... graft sucks, much rather be driving :!:


Cheers Dude

I don't think I've played the new Hot Pursuit, what is it called?

I never got in to pc gaming or ps2 gaming alot, but I have a ps2 console that I break out of the closet occassionally, lol.

I haven't worked on my mirrors yet. I had planned to this summer, but kind of got a hold up on that plan. I'll probably switch from electric standard 3-Series mirrors to the electric+heated m3 style mirrors when I get a chance.

Hahaha, funny stuff. The main therapist I have to see (due to my doctors orders) is a male. He isn't a crazy hair beast or anything, but he is a male which is an automatic "Damnit". But every couple days I'll go and he won't be there so I get some really young cute ones, lol.

So what kind of work do you do again? I was working in my father's landscaping and grading business when I broke my leg. Thats the kind of work where you'd really like to be driving your car instead for sure, lol. It's not usually dangerous work (like breaking legs) but we were working up on this mountain trying to clear out to make a road and the bank gave away. So thats the gist of my story.

Dang dude, you're lucky. I've got one more year til I'm off to the pub everyday, haha. Well have fun driving to and from work, lol.

Cheers.

Hey Dude,

U have to get the new Need for Speed " Most wanted" sweeeeet game.
U have cops waiting for u on the side of the road that rush u when u storm past. U have a wanted level that brings more cops and some bad ass car chases in between the race.

I know it is out on PC and P2, go check it out!!!

As for work, i am a 50% owner in a Shot blasting and Protective coating business.
we are the biggest in our province, i can drive 2 Catepillar 725 ADT's into my booth next to each other. The work is cool, each day is different. The work is hard at times but that does allow me to play hard.
One of my new contracts is the water works in a town called Loerie, man it is beautifu out there in the mountains. And some of the best driving roads u could ever want, long sweping turns, crazy long downhill straights :cool: :shock:
I enjoy my job which is a bonus. And i get to play with some seriously cool equipment if i want to.
We have a specialised spray system called Airless Spray.
U dont use a compressor and air to spray, the paint is compressed in a single cyslinder type piston. And the paint is compressed to the tune of a 1,000 bar !!! Guys have lost fingers by putting there hands infront of the Spratgun and pulling the trigger!!


And now i have to run, came into the office early today ( 5am ) gotta rush off to a site and inspect some work.

Hope u have a swell day. And dont brag about the cute nurses too much. U know it isnt polite to eat infront of the hungry :lol:

Cheers Dude

Awesome man, I'll see if I can find this game. Car games are about the only kind I play. I've just never really gotten into games all that much.

Sounds like you have a sweet job. I'm still schooling in college, trying to figureout what is for me, lol. I'm thinking either mechanical or civil engineering.

Haha, i'll try not to brag too much, lol. Have a nice day man. Don't blast off any fingers with that Airless Spray, lol. But seriously...don't. That would suck.

Well, I gotta start getting ready. One of my friends is getting married this weeked and his bachlors party is tonight. So to the showers and then I'm off. Have a good one.

Cheers :D

Bachelor party.... sweet... How is your head feeling? Kinda like ur leg just worse hey :shock:

Gotta love bachelor parties man... what an exscuse to drink too much and grope innocent ladies :cool: Then again like the male species needs an exscuse for doing that lol

What a weekend, took my 318is for a burn through the mountains to check on the water works site... Hmmmm... what a drive, only thing better will be the M3 and that road. drooool

Any thoughts/opinions on the benefits of fitting a separate ram air hose to our cars. Been thinking of fitting a pipe from the brake vent down on the bumper to the airbox inlet side ? Instead of that funny flat fitting that sucks air in from next to the radiator.

Gotta dash dude,

Have a good one

Cheers

haha, I like your brave story about the poor little dog. You're a genius! And yes, you are indeed a bad bad man, lol. But, a bad man with excellent plans.

Anyways, first driving session will probably be around the start of next week or so. I haven't been back to the doctor to ask yet, but I go back on the 4th of August, next friday. So we'll see for sure then. I'll probably get out and drive some regardless at the start of next week tho just so I can see if I can work the clutch and gas still, lol. It's been a lonnnng time now, :D. I'll probably scare my self at my own driving skills, haha.

That's pretty much my story for the rest of this week and next. What's going on over your way?

Cheers.

Dude... This is not good

Seems the whole family is coming down on me... parents aunts uncles even cousins... apparently i need to start becoming respomsible and settle down ( deciphered as, get married and have babies )
Have like a hundred dates set up for me for this weekend...

I mean this weekend... how inconsiderate, dont they realise that weekend are for cleaning and playing with my two babies... the ones that dont cry and scream :cool:

Having read the last paragraph im thinking they may have a point LOL :D

Anyway,

Looking forward to the weekend, taking another M3 for a test, hopefully this is the one.
Also getting a Subaru Impreza WRX STI for a couple hours on sunday. Gonna tear the shit out of it !! Going for a good price though, might take it to keep me going till i find my M

Will let u know.

Cheers dude

You've gotta hate it when they starts coming down on you with the responsibility speeches, haha. About the two babies, sounds like you've got things figured out. ;)

Another M, niiiice. I wish I were test driving some. It's fine to get an Impreza for a temporary car, but don't switch over to the dark side, lol. :D And if you're gonna tear the crap out of it when driving, tear some out of it for me too, haha.

Looking forward to hearing...

Cheers man.

Dude... No Complaints regarding the site.

The members could be a bit more active but otherwise very SWEET.

How goes the leg... Any action of the driving nature ?

Busy as SHIT this side, struggling to keep my !!! Not getting time to play with my Beemers.

Speaking of which, the test drive with the M3 fell through. urns out the guy " HEARD WRONG " yeah right... was a blooming 318is like i got already.. same color too !!!
So i took my frustrations out on the Sccoby... nice car fast as fuck but not a patch on the M3 EVO 2... Are the M's out here the same spec as europe and america. I have noticed that the States cars are usually detuned a bit.
My M ( Evo 2 ) has figures of 321 BHP and 239 Nm torque.

Have to dash bud, meeting calls.

Cheers

Steve
