A lot of crap and only ran into a small problem with the oil filter. It wouldn't come off. Hammered a screw driver threw it and this is what I ended up with...



Cut my finger really bad on it at some point.

Nice Mandaide!













(Mandaide: A home made wound covering created in the blink of an eye by any real man when flesh on his body, family members body, or pets body is torn severely enough to warrant some sort of First Aid.
Mandaides are typically made from common items found in a garage or tool box with Duct Tape being the preferred adhesive material. Suitable substitutes include Electrical Tape, Fiberglass reinforced packaging tape, Masking tape, or Super Glue. Other materials used to absorb blood are semi-clean shop tools/rags, tee-shirt sleeves, paper towels, or canvas.)

Just got it back from getting an alignment a few mins ago. It will be nice to drive straight with no wobble anymore. I'm going to take it for a test drive a little later today when I head to a party. I know, I should take it on a test drive immediately but the place I go to is right across the street from my house and they are good to go. If I have any problems they will take care of it.

For shame.

I welded my exhaust so that it stopped leaking.

cleaned off all the sticker residue on the windshield with some Simple Green concentrated cleaner. in with a prank war with this kid i work with. he's about to get a really nasty rattle can job on his Neon

so far, i think i got him the worst with the pranks: all he has done is stuck stickers, attempted to stuff my tailpipe, and put crap on my wiper blades that caused them to destruct over the winter. i've got him with "i'm a sperm bank child" stickers on the passenger fender he didn't notice for 1.5 weeks (his gf noticed them before he did and didn't say anything), i tied pop and coffee cans under the front valence of his car so he thought he had something messed up with his axles when he drove (shop guys laughed at him good about that), and i disconnected his battery without even having to go into his car so he couldn't drive home that night (the tow truck guy was wondering how he got it there without the battery connected).
