Man that has to suck!

Just for laughs...Here is my email/whiny/hopeless attempt to Melissa about the Shootout earlier today.

Hun, I will be out of town from the 11th to the 15th of August 2005 for the 13th annual DSM Shootout. Let me know if this conflicts with anything we have going on next year. I hope it doesn't. :-) I keep having to miss this every year, please let me know ASAP as I need to reserve rooms soon.

Thanks,

Jim

Here is her response,

You know aug 13th is Kori and Rick's wedding. you decide.

"you decide" haha, i'm screwed!

Oh well, my DSM will probably be broken anyways...

Ok, I'm, done crying now.

Yup, She's got you by the balls with the old "you decide". I hate that phrase.

You got owned by your own penis dude. :eek:

CRAIG

hahaha, I use that "you decide" all the time. We certainly know how to work you guys!!! lol

ouch... that sucks man. women are harsh on us!

hopefully i'll be able to make it there, the AWD swap on the spyder should be done and all perfect by then, anyone know if that is "no allowed" to run cause its not a visual mod? if it is i'm gunna be pissed!

Haha Jim. "You decide" means "go for it" in my book ;).

You have almost a year to breakup.

What do you mean? You can't run in a FWD class, but otherwise I don't see why it would be a problem in any class.

I've wanted to go to this since I first got into DSM's - but typically for me that month is just doesn't work. Maybe this year will be different. But I won't know till the time comes around so I won't even bother saying one way or the other.

I think this year someone should litterally drag Barton to the event.

His 2.4 better be up and running by then so he can drive himself out there.

It won't be I'm going to be building it over the next 2 years. However I have another Stock 7 bolt Bottom End that I'll be putting in until the 2.4L is finished. Which will probably be in 2006.

With the record on a completely stock 7 bolt with stock intake manifold being 551whp. At somepoint I'll be getting on the dyno again to shoot for more HP out of my car. We'll see what happens when I up the boost from 25psi to 30psi. Hopefully a 500 something number will come up.

So could I run a 4g63t Colt and what class Q16?

Jim, Girls are not worth it. Dump her ass, go to the shootout.

I did that in 2003. I'm a lot better off.

If a girl makes you decide between something you love, and to tag along to some gay ass wedding, in my book, she can hit the road.

I'm planning on going now. Sometimes things have a way of working out.

Jim

You speak wise, Mr. Me-yagi!

So what happened Jim?

Melissa's friend, who is getting married in August 2005, is not on her "a" list anymore. Melis said she would take one of her friends to the wedding instead of me if I would like. No need for me to give up the shootout for her "pain in the ass" friend's wedding at this point. :D

Jim

Sweet!! Now get it in writing! It is funny how these things will change over time.
