I Just got laid-off from High Falls Brewing Co., Formally know as Genesee Brewing Co. (slowed down) I ran machines all day. Once they pick up again I might have the chance to be a line mechanic and troubleshoot/fix those same machines (since I was doing it anyhow). So right now I am sitting on my *** either looking for another job or i'm on LS1Tech! I am sure every guy on here thats married will hear the same complaints from their wives. I know I do!!

Well I'm still in school and the library has 90% of sites blocked but in Computers 1 class, most is unblocked so I just come and browse LS1Tech...except it sucks when pictures are blocked since Photobucket is blocked and everyone in the thread talks about how nice the car looks. I feel left out until 3:00 when I'm home, lol.

I go to my local community college full time, and also work full time at a local NAPA store as a delivery guy, so I deliver all sorts of auto parts to all the local garages. It sucks driving one of my TAs or my R6 to work, then drive around the company truck all day (2000 S-10 w/ 2.2L 4cyl, 5spd, and an extended bed). Ugh I clocked a 0-60 run at 14.8 secs HAHA! And that was with 215,xxx miles!
