Borg Warner, those people made my transmission.

Should pick up some nice power going from the factory getup to that, totally because of that carbon fiber pipe.

Saw Terminator 2 in theater, worth it. 3D wasn't overly played up but wish it was the original 2D cut, for a 2 hour movie it flew right by.

[Box]

They don't offer 2D and 3D screenings anymore? Of course it's been awhile since I've gone, but I know they used to do that since the 3D makes it unwatchable to some.

[Bitter]

This was a short release of 3D only and only at AMC theaters, just the normal polarized 3D and it wasn't over done at all. It mostly just added a little depth to the scenes to push the out of focus deeper into the background, only once or twice did they do the 'pop out of the screen' gimmick. It was more like the movie screen became a big window, if that makes sense. For me, this being a movie of my childhood, it was worth it.

Ahh ok, I think I get what you're saying there. The last time I tried watching a 3D movie it made me sick to my stomach, but that was a few years ago so maybe something more smoothly implemented I'd be ok with.

I'd post up pictures, but 6GC doesn't allow image tagging from Facebook. :\

It's supposed to continue raining off and on until Wednesday and the whole city is shut down til Saturday at the earliest. Most of the residents still have power and clean running water, but a good majority have been flooded out and are evacuating. National Guard has been dispatched to aid in evacuations and rescue. Buffalo Bayou (our major bayou) is overfilled and has engulfed the major highways above it. So far, we've accumulated some 49 trillion gallons of water and it's not over yet.

West side of Houston has seen at least 3 reported tornados thus far while Rockport and Corpus Christi (About 200 miles south of us) have been hit the worst by Harvey.

This is the 45 and I-10 Intersection just north of downtown Houston.


And here's Buffalo Bayou.


The outskirts of town isn't so bad, but there are a lot of places of low spots that are retaining a good amount of water making them impassable.

Assuming it stops raining by Wednesday, a majority of the water will recede or evaporate by Friday.

[Box]

Jeez, hopefully everyone is ok.

[Bitter]

Looks moist. I got rained on some today, but nothing like that. I met a friend and we explored an abandoned women's prison nearby. It was cool.

[NgoFcukinWay]

Here's someone's California just chillin'. Probably was looking to get rid of it and found his reason.



Another shot of the Buffalo Bayou

Insurance pay off!!!

So my brother says I should get a Genesis Coupe, I wonder why...

Everything has been replaced with aftermarket parts, doesn't need any stock spare parts.

Get a brz

Actually of all the newer cars that one captures my interest the most. One setup for handling and grip would be a lot of fun I think.

They're opening up 2 reservoirs tonight around 2AM CST: one in the heights just north of downtown and one out west by Katy to relieve pressure along the dams. Expecting to raise water levels to about 8 feet by morning. :\

In the mean time, Harvey is expecting to head back out into the gulf by morning and then swing back over to Houston by the afternoon due to a pressure system in the area. Will be sitting over us for about 2 days before we see some relief.

We gon' git rekt. :\

Bear Branch Dam up in Montgomery county just broke. :\

That's not good, hope everyone stays safe.
