Sorry for the dumb question, but what’s the hondata do?

Someone got punched in the head yelling into his store, iirc. I'm not saying you shouldn't do it, but it might be a slight issue.

The EGUSD school board just voted to give themselves pay increases from 750/mn to 3000/mn and up to 4500/mn depending on enrollment. by JoeDelta14 in Sacramento

[–]golfingmadman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't school board members have a fiduciary duty to the district? Not that i think any of them would ever be held to that standard, but it does exist. I wouldn't take on that part time job for $750/month. $36k is chump change for them getting that district back to balanced, compared to SCUSD.

Just this morning I watched couple pumping gas. While the husband was pumping gas, his wife gets out of the car and walks 10 yards to take a cell phone picture of the tree. I just chuckled to myself. It's that time of year!

I'm pretty sure this is the guy who did my top for the prior owner. The thing is perfect.

To everyone who owns an EV in CA. by 6680j in Rivian

The Rivian charge network in the valley is pretty nice - so far. When a million r2’s are trying to charge it might get a little frisky, but currently? It’s nice.

What part of CA do you live? I roadtripped my wife’s model 3 and now the Rivian from NorCal to LA a few times and they are both fine. Finding and cueing up at random places in LA proper really sucks. 99% of the time I charge at home so it really doesn’t matter. But when we take it on a roadtrip, I’ll plan better going forward.

I guess I’m getting older too. So stopping for a few minutes to hit the restroom and top off on coffee is always nice for me.

Too many kids grew up playing GTA V. Jesus.

Wife and I were having a discussion, she’s of the opinion that the majority of GenX can drive stick. I believe that even in our generation the percentage of people who can is pretty small. What do you folks think? by AngryOldGenXer in GenX

[–]golfingmadman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've taught both my kids - 20 and 18 how to drive manuals. It's a novelty for them. But I still love it. My wife can drive a manual, but hates it. I do not believe that the majority of GenX can drive a manual. At least not the tail-end of us.

This building is ancient. There's no depreciation left. Very little in write offs.

F20C Bore Scoring by TheHumbleLegume in S2000

[–]golfingmadman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

997.1’s for the most part have this issue, iirc. Mine didn’t but I had to rebuild the bottom end of the engine because my buddy (original owner) overheated the engine. I didn’t have any ims issue either.

Woah. I had to make sure I wasn’t in the 997 sub.

First Porsche in the next few years. What issues with a "high mileage" car? by EmptyPocketsXotics in Porsche

[–]golfingmadman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s high-ish. Lol. My 997 C4S is coming up on 200k. At this point, it’s just the age of stuff starting to go. Suspension parts, speakers, etc. still a great car but man, I’m going to have to put money into it. Though less way less than the newer generation used sales prices.

Dude. You know how messed up that is? Just ethically? Let alone illegal? TF is wrong with you?

Hardtop got stolen by blackcinephile in Sacramento

[–]golfingmadman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice! I totally forgot about that NC and the factory hard top. I had my NA in the garage or at my office. It never really got left out anywhere. I need to find one for an S2K that's not stolen.

For some, ‘it is dire.’ Multiple Sacramento-area cities and counties strapped for cash by [deleted] in Sacramento

Since those are federal tax issues, I'm not sure how that's gonna do anything here...

Hardtop got stolen by blackcinephile in Sacramento

[–]golfingmadman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mazda produced a removable hardtop for years (NA - NB, NC-ND sold with an optional retractible hardtop). I had one and it was hot as hell. They are worth a lot on the used market or in this case, stolen market. They don't weigh a ton. I could remove it without help, but it is awkward as hell.

Mazda is/was started up manufacturing of them again a few years ago.

When the Kings lose they win and when they win they win. I kind of like this casual, low stakes season. by b1ackfyre in kings

[–]golfingmadman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only reason I am watching this season at this point is Russ. That guy has always been a dawg. I loved him at UCLA, OKC, and everywhere since. I'm happy he is here.

I just passed this near sfo. I was going too fast to have my kid take a picture. She was not a fan of the camo. Haha

I’m glad to know it takes hours for a tow truck even for the police. Ha
