I got my 3GS so I could use it down here in New Zealand, I'm kinda meh about it. It freezes more often now and it hates getting turned on from a dead battery (or just turning it off) to the point that it'll get stuck on the homescreen for hours without some TLC/force shutting it down repeatedly. Hopefully you have better luck.

I got rid of 3G because of that, I didn't JB it, but I would
Mig/ Tig weld with it and i think the high frequency messed it up.

So I got a new car last week, a 2013 Kia Rio EX. Only getting like 29MPG combined though. Even though most of my miles is freeway and it's advertised 40mpg highway...

Don't expect the 40 mpg on your way home from palm springs. That head wind is always horrible.

Sooooo....
I got a call from a local FIRE/EMS.

I had met with the EMS Chief a couple weeks ago. We talked a bit about the station and possible EMT-B positions.I hadn't even taken my NREMT tests yet. I told him I would submit an application once I was done testing.

Took my psychomotor skills test on 06-02-12...cognitive written scheduled for 06-22-12.

Chief leaves me a voice mail stating he and the Paramedic LT want to sit down and talk to me about a position as a part time EMT-B.

I am floored that they want me to come in and talk position when I haven't even filled out the application yet.

A meeting with them this week, who knows, I might be affiliated by month's end.

Thing I have going for me is, due to full time job and full time family obligations, I would only be available Friday and Saturday nights on their 00:00-08:00 shift. Apparently nobody else wants these hours.:wacko:

Been awake for 37 straight hours. I hate exam time. Time to get on a plane for a change of scenery.

Well... my Netbook died last night.

LCD fracture. Not really sure from what, other than my bag being a little over-packed this weekend.

While I could replace the screen, I'm probably going to replace the whole thing (it's about 2 years old). Really wasn't what I wanted to see this AM.

I like that idea :) I'm already putting together a shoot that started with the idea from this pic:

Maybe I can incorporate both...

Flashback to the movie Re-Animator.

That 1500 is a cute little truck :p

Nothing like the fresh smell of diesel in the morning

I am possibly taking some psychology classes next semester and will be looking for a term paper topic, so could you tell me: What are we overcompensating for? :rofl:

Hey be nice! Your tax dollars payed for that truck :ph34r:

All joking aside, that is a nice truck, but red is a better color :)

I have a small star of life on my back window. It may or may not be to help with getting pulled over. And it also allows me to park at college for free sometimes.
