Well, I know a lot of cities around here have ordinances about loitering and I think that when the cops come to break up a meeting in a parking lot it is cause some one calls and complains casue it is mostly residential areas around here and people have nothing better to do then wine and cry all day.
this is the convo between me n the manager of autozone
me: hey i was wondering if me n my buddies could use your parking lot at night to hang out cuz were gettin sick of eureka n biddle
manager: wat day would you use it?
me: i duno, friday? saturday? sunday? one of the weekend days
manager: wat time?
me: hmm.. probably sometime after 8 or 9?
manager: alright, i dont care.. go for it
me: alright, but wat if the cops come for loitering n stuff? should i have written permisson from you?
manager: nah, just tell them you have permission from me
me: alright cool man.. thanx alot

Yeah your right, if it was all classics the neighbors would be out there encouraging it. I work for the city so I know how people can be. Mostly all they want to do is ***** and moan about anything and everything. Like, my road is all fooked up and I want it resurfaced then you resurface it and they call and biaaaaatch about the construction and how they can't get down there street.
As for Autozone, that at least gives us a place to hang when we get sick of cruising.
AS FOR MY BIG SECRET TUNER SHOP IN SOUTHGATE!!! NOT A SECRET NO MORE!!! I just seen they put there sign up
The old Pep Boys on Fort Street will be a perfromance shop !!!! WOOOO HOOOOOO!!! They will not be like a Ramchargers or Overchangers for those of you that have dealt with them. They will have a lot of import stuff from what I understand!!! I am getting excited!!

I think this is the new shop going into Pepboys! Flexivity....actually I am almost 100 percent positive this is it. The guy told me that it is big in San Diego and that is where this is and the owner owns a Quality Care which is Ford and this site is Ford (look at the bottom) AWESOME!

Well everyone now that it's warming up like no other...it is time to announce.....
====METRO7====
The first ever 7th gen civic get together in MICHIGAN. The time and place has yet to be decided. Will be organized by my girl and ME. Will most likely be held at a park....bbq,beer,car talk and all the other good stuff. Sick of all this message board crap? Well here is your chance to meet and socialize. And drool over each others rides. I've thought of our get together to be called "Metro7." Anyone else with a better title feel free to reply.
(oh yea...I remember you guys saying about variety in bbq styles....input needed.)(I would like to start this small between just us. See how it goes then I'll consider expanding.)(I need some ideas of a nice park...thats preferrably NOT GHETTO)(highschool punks....let me know what time school gets out)
TIME/PLACE (TBA) ......weather pending....
I'll keep you updated.

troy won't be an easy drive 1-75 cause it is shut down or shutting down for construction [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG]
I think Hines park might be a pretty good spot. I have never been there though.
Thanks for checking on the neons! I just bought some from JCWhitney.com (Streetglows)
Looks like my house is put off another week cause the home owners and their lawyer are complete idiots. But oh well, the nice weather is here at least.
OK here is a poll: Should Bobby take off his Civic and EX Emblems in the rear or keep them on?

Hey another way to get them emblems off easy is to take some fishing string and run it between the car and the emblem, slicing the sticky crap. Then use some 3m adhesive remover, that stuff works grrreta!
. Ok, so this Saturday they will be coming off! I also ordered more neon lights for my interior which I might install this weekend if I get them. And I have to have my dad weld my intake bracket that broke [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG] So I will have a fun filled car weekend!!
Plus an OIL CHANGE WOOOOO HOOO [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
