Smile: Finally done with all of my student loan prep, housing arrangements, and my summer assignment for DigiPen! So excited to leave my EE major and start Game Design! :D

Frown: Speaking of loans, my dad told me two weeks ago that he never actually co-signed on my student loan, even though he had been saying so since February. He was the last one to enter an email address into the application, so he would be the one to know. He really never wanted me to go to DP, but that crossed the line. Luckily, I was able to sort it out just in time.

:? AC in my car is dead (has been for like 10 years) so I have to drive with the windows down. Today I was stuck in construction behind a truck that was literally filled with bullshit.

Any moderately sized hardware or car supply shop should carry canned A/C Pro, buy it (it's cheap) and follow this guide. 15 minute job, max.

Well that's helpful if the coolant is low. The compressor could be shot or the seals could be blown. If the seals were shot 10 years ago, they're sure not going to hold anything now.

Ha ha!

My wife and I tried that once. Our "tax specialist" had to be corrected so many times within the first hour of simply talking to him that we lost all confidence in his ability to handle the job, so we just bought TurboTax and did it ourselves. Cheaper, faster, and more accurate.
JT and I see eye to eye, as I'm also now a Turbo Taxer.

Thanks Dudes on the AC discussion as I'm also sweating like meatloaf, both the singer and the food.

I'll look into some AC solutions. It hasn't been an issue for me, but I don't want my daughter baking the backseat.

Sorry man. Think of the money you'll save on toilet paper though.

In college we had a Taco Bell on campus. I thought it was pretty cool for a week or so.

Amen. Gotta find the silver (porcelain?) lining in things, I suppose.

EDIT: Two more sweet things just happened!

:D - First post on the 2000th page, what an honor!

:D :D - One of my favorite baseball players, Nick Swisher, just hit a walkoff grand slam. What a class act, man. Loved him from his time on the Yankees, and now like the Indians because of his presence. Always smilin'.

We had a new one put up just last year that's closer to me than the other 2 locations around here. 2-5PM for frozen drinks! When I was last there they accidentally put a Doritos taco shell in my Cheesy Gordita Crunch. No problem with that! :lol:
