Things!

I don't really own that much, that's kind of nice in a way..

Magnetic/Optical Media



CDs, Assorted Tapes, VideoTapes.

Things to sweat in/about



Roces Street blades. Maybe these should be things to bleed in hehe. Or bruise in.
Weights. About 250lbs worth of, along with a curl bar.
Racketball raquets! Found 'em!
Boots. Normally while dancing. Boots are important I mean, I spend most of my time in them, got three pairs at most times (Otherwise I feel inadequate) and generally speaking feel very comfy in them. They're like a security blankey. :)

My current mode of transportation



10/14/98 Ok. That's it. I'm shopping / saving for a new car. One too many times. 8/13/98 A summary. (Time does not so much fly as metamorphose into an even split of experience and memories.) Since 5/11/98, The Sentra (of which I really should get some pictures in here).. XE 2 door has not been troublesome.. rather quiet, really (Nice car.. nice car). 12/25/98 Turned over 100,000 miles, not too long ago, just replaced the battery post. took me about a full day, well, I was also updating this site at the time. 10/27/00 Look at this. The tale of the cars grows. The Sentra was eaten alive by a runaway trailer. I'll get around to detailing -that- experience one of these days.. in the meantime, I waited, looked and finally got a 200SX SE-R circa '97. It's nifty, black and has 140HP.. for my bday 10/29, Kristine and my Sister got me tires! 205/50s instead of the stock 195s.. they're:
  • Nitto NT 450 Extreme Performance
  • V-Rated Treadwear: 300
  • Traction: A
  • Temp: A
  • Speed Rating: VR
  • P205/50R-15 84V
  • They were only $64.00 each from www.discountiredirect.com
    Nitto mentions they have a 45,000 miles warranty on these usually, so I'm really happy with them.. I wanted something with a little more performance than the stocks 195s eagle rs-as but that would last AS long if not longer.

    Reproducing Sound

    My stereo.. in its current incarnation.. Well, it's practical. I've got 2 sets of speakers, I believe Yamahas and Phillips (For pretend surround sound).. A Teac Amp I've had to replace the left fuse on.. A Single CD Teac Player.. matching teac double tape deck. Ah yes.. extended peripherals.. I've got the Sony portable Discman for my car... and a portable cassette player which is pretty nifty but my sister uses for the most part for her classes..
    I would -like- an equalizer and a mixing board.
    10/27/2000 Hmm I lost (read gave to a friend) the good yamaha deck. The teac one has deteriorated -through no fault of it's own, I was rough on it AND it's nearly 10 years old now. The amp's led display is shot, but that's ok :) The Yamaha speakers went to Al, I've got some sony's, smaller but just as powerful if not more, I also got some phillips surround speakers in paris, they're quite good on their own, and great for surround.

    My Own Complex Counting Machine

    Recent Development. An AMD based K6-300, with 64 Megs of Ram (SIMMS), random 4 meg video card, and a 13" monochrome monitor (Which I REALLY enjoy). 10/27/2000 Hmmm ok then. I've given away two machines already, and one came back to me. The above I tried to give to my sister for her bday. She occasionally used it but I think I should have sprung for the colored case, she didn't really get into it, I think my dad is going to get her a new one so when she moved out of my mom's she told me to take the machine back.. so I did, now that's at al's (where I stay during the weekends) and I gave my new machine to kristine.. so I use that over there.. recently Joe (My sis bfriend) and I went half and half on a 128meg Dimm, and we yanked out his 64meg dimm and added it to mine, so we both have 128megs of ram. And 98 really benefits from it.

    My Progenitors Complex Counting Machine

    Which I maintain and upgrade. Unfortunately running Win95. Specs: K6-200. 1 64 Meg Dimm. 4 meg S3D Video Card. 2.5 Quantum Bigfoot Drive, 16XCDrom, AP4000 Epson Action Printer, 14inch Packard Bell Monitor. 10/27/2000 Hmm Yeah that changed. Same processor, same memory, I've got a voodoo 1000 in there. And the monitor is a 17" KDS. Not bad for the money. The harddrive has been upgraded and I have two drives in there, one being a 7200RPM western digital. Also a teac cdrom burner 4/4/24, running under win98

    Drivers! Not to be taken lightly, these things are a pain to find sometimes.
