I stinks knowing any mod I want is going to cost me twice. I already got yelled at for not telling the Mrs. about the Halltech Stinger and Predator programmer...she wanted to know how much she got to spend. Good thing she doesn't know prices... "Yes Dear, the air cleaner was $50 and the computer was $150."

Holy Bejesus! All these posts sound like me! I try to hide the stuff. (The UPS guy is dropping off the chrome vert hoops from WCC at the neighbor's). I tell her every box is a S/C and she's relieved when it's not. We need more planning here.

I tell MSO that its only a hobby and it's cheaper than playing golf and better than hanging out in bars.

Maybe we can have each vendor supply a pair of shoes with each MOD order.

This way we can say I bought you these nice shoes and they threw in a set of free headers...

Orders from females can include a 6 pack of beer or your significant other's favorite Sporting Team Jersey....
