Default Bad weather! Something else to do.

Well the weather has been **** for about a week or so I spent some time at the Sox game. Its alot cheaper cruising around town, but it was fun, the kids loved it, and the rain held out all game.








-3 tickets tothe game $150
-parking $30
-3 beers, 1 hot dog, 1 cotton candy $28
-Driving the vette around all day when the weather is nice "priceless"

Those look like good seats. The last time I went I was up by the Dunkin Donuts sign. At least the seats and beers were free!

I'm sorry for the bad weather, it's my fault. I got the car on the road on wednesday - hence rain since. However, I have braved the rain the past couple days as I NEEDED to drive my car. It should get better since I won't be able to drive it tomorrow or the day after, so get ready for some nice weather.

Ah! Now now, lets not be to bitter. I know it is tough to be a Stankee fan now a days. We suffered through a lifetime of losing up here. You'll get used to our old favorite saying "well there is always next year". They should have never fired Torre!


Mickey B,
I just put new rear callipers on mine and more importantly new rear hoses. The fluid was not coming back through the hose. As far as bleeding you need 2 people. I went side to side at least 2 times to get it tight. As far as the food you can not beat the seafood around here, I don't now how you live without it after having the fresh stuff. Then all the portugese food.

As far as the weather it looks like today is going to be a vette day.
