i can give you some ideas from my manifesto if i was able to run lol !

got told off for laughing outload in the office

(This was written by a rig worker in the North Sea - what he says makes a lot of sense!). I work, they pay me.. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to earn that pay cheque, I work on a rig for a drilling contractor. I am required to pass a random urine tes...

this place is about 5 mins from where i live will be taking a trip down to see what its all about on my next day off

this is quite a handy site for checking recalls listed even funnier when you start looking through 100k plus cars and some of there problems , puts a leak here and there into perspective like a red label Bentley Arnage that "has a fuel pipe that may touch exhaust" (always good for those co...

i have a B5 and added the 5.5 aero arms the only way i managed to get them a bit lower was to put a 1" shorter blade on the passanger side as it was hitting the A piller and adjust round a couple of splines still not realy low but better will try to get a pic done if that would help
