Christmas list of sorts

Published on September 30, 2007 in Personal. 0 Comments

I know that it is hard to actually get a meaningful gift for any person no matter if it is family or a close friend or anything like that. So to help with the confusions with buying for christmas I thought that I should put up a small list of things that myself and Tamberly would like for the holiday season. I personally am really easy and it really doesn’t take to much to make me happy, there are however a few things that I could use for the next year that would make my life a lot easier.

1.) Socks

2.) Underpants

3.) Christmas cookies

4.) I do need some new clothes as most of my stuff is developing holes and I am getting rather tired of sewing patches into them

5.) Gift certificates, IE. Wal-mart, Price Chopper, Newegg. (these are uber-handy because it will buy groceries, all but the newegg one)

6.) a Weighted Companion Cube plush from the game Portal

Well that was it for me. As I said, I am easy. No one will ever look at this but at least it’s an attempt to get something that I will actually use.

IF ALL ELSE FAILS!!! I LIKE COOKIES!!!

This here is for informational purposes only and I can not be held responsible for following any of the steps listed.

Ah, the life of a do it yourself mechanic. It’s a life of the worst type of agony you can imagine. Recently I have undertaken the task of replacing a timing belt in a 98 Plymouth Breeze. Since I have not ever in my life replaced a timing belt and being a HUGE fan of Japanese cars.

[Haynes Manual]

There are a few things that any person will need before you start any type of journey into the wonderful world of auto mechanic.

Make certain that you have the Haynes manual before you get started because I am more than certain that you will be needing it along the road to parts replacement. Plus it will give you some little tricks to make your life easier.

For any MOPAR cars made within the last 20 years you will be needing both standard and metric sockets.

a 3 pronged puller

4) A large breaker bar, a small breaker bar, and an old tire iron.

5) 1 Jack stand, 2 hydraulic jacks

This is a too be completed rant. Didn’t realize that I didn’t finish this.
