connecticut sucks

Woot! The trip out here rocked.
Our airport security sucks. I was walking around the terminal and reached inside my coat pocket, guess what I found? A FUCKING METAL RAZOR BLADE! Airport security for the win
We layed over in South Carolina. Why in the fuck would you lay over in South Carolina when you are flying from Minnesota to Connecticut. Plus our plane was super super tiny, shoulder to shoulder flight.
We arrived and decided to upgrade to 1st class. That was cool, and the rum and cokes were good (Bacardi).
The pilot locked up the wheels and the plan pitched a bit on landing, that was kinda cool.
Find our hotel, no problems there, decide to find this godforsaken shop we need to go to. It's close, only 1/2 hour away.
Oh these roads out here suck as well.
-The signs are all worn away, you can barely read shit.
-You can't turn off a damm highway. You missed the exit? Sucks to be you, go to the next town. So we finally find this shop, I hope its nice inside, because it sure isn't outside.
The icing on the cake. Its 2am, we are fucking hungry, there is a McDonald's next to the hotel, sweet right? What would you want more than a cheeseburger.
Well they don't serve any items under $3. So I try to order 3 cheeseburgers, nope, only the "big sandwiches"
So now I am sitting here on a wireless connection in the hotel, eating my 10 piece nuggets.
Atleast its 50 degrees (suckers!), and I am on "vacation".

If a person from Minnesota tells you the roads suck, trust them. I used to spend most of my driving time trying to get turned around because I wanted to go East, exited to the East and ended up going West. My road sign reading skills have improved dramatically.

Re: connecticut sucks

Well the class is nice.
They don't have a 2 cheeseburger meal here.
Tonight is rainy and shitty out. Its warm enough to not need a coat. We rented a v6 mustang, with the traction control off its kinda fun.
But its an auto, so its only kinda fun.
Tommorrow should be very informative as well, but honestly I can't wait to get home.

Re: connecticut sucks

EFI 101 is cool. Not a lot to do after class, so I will read over the notes, and find ear plugs for the NA 3.3lt Subi on Dynopacks tomorrow.

Re: connecticut sucks

So did you lay over in Murtle Beach or in Columbia?

Murtle Beach is 2hrs from my folks, and columbia is only 30 minutes.

Anyrate glad you guys had fun and good to see you getting training. BTW how much power did the Subi make?
