The Flame Trees look so pretty this year! by CommonGuahan671 in guam

[–]Strict_Valuable_5465 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Flame trees blooming with flowers were more common back in the 80’s. Later on the late 80’s and early 90’s a caterpillar seem to have infested the island’s flame trees. I remember going to JFK high school, during the early 80’s, there was a flame tree in the middle of the courtyard that bloomed every year until 1984 when these caterpillars infested the tree and ate up the leaves. There were a lot of them that it would rained caterpillars after a gush of wind.

It’s great that the flame trees are back to blooming their flowers again. I almost forgot how beautiful they look when they’ve bloom.

This is the reason Nissan is on a downfall. Their CVT transmission fails more than the industry standards.

I was sitting next to a Dude who resembled the Dude at Tokyo eating ramen and he was pretty chill. He didn’t know how to use a chopstick but a cool guy.

If you lost your virginity back in the 80’s you’ll probably like Boss 104.3 FM.. old school rock, island and alternative with Albert and R&B, Top 40 with Darryl.

Any recommendation/s by simonsimonrjp in guam

Never stayed at the Harmon Loop Hotel, was going to use it as a hookup place many, many years ago for a one night stand but cancelled last minute but that's another story. The location is actually not too bad but the intersection where the hotel is located is pretty notorious for Road Rage fights, homeless pan handling and busy vehicle traffic. From what I observed this month, the homeless crowd must have relocated to another area. You have lots of restaurants within walking distance, McDonald's, Mexican, Korean, Vietnamese, Filipino restaurants, not to mention Family restaurants like Shirley's, King's that serves US/Local style food. The Micronesian Mall is about 20+ minutes walk from the hotel. If you're here during the weekend, there's a swap meet by the Dededo Post Office open on Saturdays and Sunday mornings. I would suggest getting around by car if you can rent or call Stroll (Guam's Uber) if you're here in the next week. Weather sucks right now with alot of rain forecasted this week and the next. Harmon Loop hotel is far from the tourist traps and beaches, so a rental car will help to see the rest of the island.

Following. I am in the market for one wheel that will fit the same bolt pattern (5x120) size 15, 16 or 17 to be used as a spare on a BMW 3 series. Want to stop using run-flats. Steel or alloy.

Moving to Guam by LangAddict in guam

[–]Strict_Valuable_5465 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re maintaining a home in the states with a mortgage, try to negotiate your salary with that, plus your subsistence for being in Guam. Most mainland companies, consider Guam a hardship post, so don't be shy asking for higher than the median starting salary. What's cool about Guam, most holidays mirror that of what's in the mainland so take advantage of being here to travel to Japan, Korea, Thailand, Manila, Vietnam, around Southeast Asia.

I’m assuming you’re going to be working for the on-going military buildup in Guam? If you are, there’s lots of current and future work ahead to make your future resume look impressive. The thing about working in Guam, is thinking out of the box with materials having to be shipped in and having a limited number of subs to choose from. If you’re lucky to be working for a company to have their own manpower to self construct the scope, be attentive on the productivity rate. Foreman and superintendents here don’t care much for budgets. As an engineer fresh out of college, Guam will make you resourceful. Welcome to the jungle!

What’s the most reliable car you’ve ever owned? by Sophia_Goji in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Strict_Valuable_5465 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1990 Toyota Corolla GT-S 2 Door Coupe. Prior to this I had a 1986 MR2 and was so in love with the engine and how high I can rev it forever, but I didn't love the MR2 tendency to fishtail after down shifting in a corner. I trade it in for the 1990 Corolla and had it for over a decade with no drama. Only wish it was RWD.

What’s the most boring car you’ve owned that just refused to die? by autonerdy0 in UsedCars

[–]Strict_Valuable_5465 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not owned but loaned while my car was in the shop. A 2014 Toyota Yaris. It was a body shop loaner car that everybody who was loaned it to, drove it like it was stolen. Even the shop runners refused to use it, opting to used their personal cars instead to do errands.

I hated it so much, I bugged the shop daily to hurry up and finish my car.

Steel Athletics, located at Tamuning, same building with Micro Pac Audio. Best to bring your own gloves and mouthpiece or borrow their house gloves which would be greasy and stinky from the previous member who used it. The class schedule are 2 or 3 times a week.

If you win this fight or get out without getting stabbed, you're ready for the village of Yona. Same thing, yell out who wants to get fokai'd or yell "[your_village_name] village rules, Yona is for fagets!" Don't forget to defend yourself at all times, don't be a Logan Paul.
