That's not bad.

I pay $154/mo for insurance, so I get screwed over there.

Suzukis are decent vehicles. They catch a lot of flak, but most are made with parts from General Motors [GM]. The Forenza is the equivalent of the Chevy Aveo..

Re: Off Topic 2012

Remember how some of you guys were talking on here a week or two ago about not locking your doors? Well my neighbor learned his lesson. He never locks his car doors and his car got broken into last night. They took $6k worth of stuff (mostly camera equipment) and they stole his glock.

The scary part about it is whoever did it probably just went up the street, seeing which cars were unlocked.. which means they probably tried to get into my family's cars too.

it takes 2 seconds to lock your car. i have no idea why anyone would want to leave their car unlocked no matter how safe they feel.

Can't feel sorry for that guy at all.

How do you leave that type of stuff in there while knowing full well you don't lock your doors? SMH.

It's sad that the #1 way to prevent someone breaking into our car is to actually use the feature that was implemented to prevent it--pressing a button

That's what I'm hearing. My dad actually has an '04 Forenza and he said he's never had a problem with it. I think his has around 130k miles on it. Plus I know that my grandfather would never sell me a crap car.

I'll just have to improve my money management, because right now it's horrendous.

Re: Off Topic 2012

Back towards the end of my Junior of HS I was almost finished learning how to drive and my step dad picked me up after work, which I then drove home. After I parked I forgot to lock my door, next morning turns out the car is missing. Eventually found about an hour south in the hood all beat up(the brakes were terrible so they probably got into an accident).

Always felt bad that I forgot to lock the door because that made things rough on my parents with one car and eventually hurt me cause I never got my own car like I may have. Never told them that, but I guess also if they could hot-wire the car they could break in as well.

The terrible part in all this is they wanted to charge my parents like $200 to tow it away once it was found

Re: Off Topic 2012

Just won one crazy game in my offline North Carolina Dynasty.

I was down two scores going into the fourth quarter and came back and took a 3 point lead. Then we forced a stop and got the ball back with 1:00 left in the game. I run the ball to kill the clock and make VT burn their timeouts. Second play I stretch it out and get the first down and my HB fumbles for the first time all year and they get it back and score a TD.

I was again down by 4 points with 22 seconds left. I caught my WR on a deep curl on the left side and purposely hit the ground and called a timeout. Then I went ahead and took a shot deep with 11 seconds left and hit my #1 WR, who adjusted his route because of a bad pass and made another catch. With :03 left on the clock, I took one more shot at the end zone from the 28 yard line and found my WR again on a corner route to win it.

The CPU didn't want me to win, but I made it happen anyways..

I hate having the need to rant, but nobody to rant to.

Does the new XBox (the black one that comes with kinect) use the same hard drive that the white XBox does?

I feel like Im missing out on a lot of contact because of the limited storage capacity of the system. In 2K13, I cant even see any highlight packages and on Madden, replays were about 4 seconds long.

No, it uses a smaller one. You can actually get a 320 gig for the new one on Amazon for about $50 right now. They have transfer cables to move your stuff if necessary.

Re: Off Topic 2012

Correct me if I'm wrong but did the Huffington Post at least try at one point to be a some what respectable news publication? Seems like everything from them lately has been shock headlines and gossip stories.

Guy at work says to us.

"The only reason I keep my Facebook is for when my wife goes to bed. I log on and look at pictures of women from high school and college with porn playing in the backround."

Think I made myself a new work friend.

Facebook is only the tip of the iceberg

re: Huffington Post
The articles I read from them are usually pretty professional and insightful. I don't visit their website, though, I just launch from my Google News page.

The rant I feel would be more effective in person so I actually say what I need to and get it out of my system. What it boils down to, however, is I think I finally realized I was Mr. Plan B.

FT, my advice: Get yourself a Punching Bag.
