“Walkies.”
The idea for this shot was an easy one. I walk someone named Grimlock between 2 and 4 miles a day. =) If only all ideas were this easy.

This news is woefully old. I’ve had the Link installed for almost 2 months and haven’t updated my blog! I feel ashamed. I’m hanging my head even now while typing this.

The Hunted I decided to restart Plastic52 on flickr. That’s where you take a picture of the same toy every week for a whole year. I finished my first year of Optimus Prime pix a while ago and tried to do a 2nd year with the Decepticon Revoltechs. I couldn’t consistently come up with ideas […]
May 7th, 2009 — DIY, Exterior, The Sharka Rebuild
I’ve been waiting for just the perfect weekend to put on Sharka 2’s new stripes. It’s been either too cold or too windy for over a month now. The sun finally came out and the wind slowed to a breeze and I went to work. This is the 4th time I’ve done a full …
April 22nd, 2009 — Photos, Non-Miata Car Pix
The big, Motor Trend sponsored auto show came though town recently. My camera and a few buddies from work went with me for the opening on Friday afternoon.

April 8th, 2009 — Suspension, The Sharka Rebuild, Wrench Turning
Yes, I say “sorta.” Because I didn’t take many photos. Because I punched myself in the face with a crowbar. . . . . . So there I was, all done with the front suspension and the front chin spoiler install, when it was time to turn my attention to the rear. I had my […]

Here we are! The final part of the TEIN rebuild tale. Part 1 and part 2 can be seen on their respective links. The UPS tracking showed that I’d come home to find my TEINs waiting for me tonight. It was not wrong. There was a happy box on my doorstep with a familiar logo. […]

When I change Beep’s oil again, I’m sure I’m gonna want these. Drain plug torque: 22-30 ft/lbs filter housing torque: 22 ft/lbs 6mm filter drain: 7.6 ft/lbs Each one of these seems to be on a separate page, hidden on the intarwebs. NO LONGER! Now they’re all in one place. For me.
