For the bike, may occasionally get used on the car also.

Literally the only reason I got this was because Old Spice is ripping off GT6 :sly:

I can not confirm it smells like ice or wind, but more like coconut and freedom.
I'm a Pure Sport fan, myself. I don't really like how any of their new stuff smells - most of it just smells like soap.

Yea, this has a somewhat soapy smell but Old Spice has always treated me well in the sweat department. I'm not expecting it to be as good as the regular Pure Sport but oh well.
 
Feel kind of like a post whore because I've already posted it in the Infield but I'm so chuffed with my new ride I feel the need to show it off. You cannot imagine how awesome that V-twin sounds (unless you've also ridden one). :D

Not my pic but same bike

LIKE THAT'S STOPPED YOU BEFORE! :P

Nice ride, Shemster!

I'll post my latest purchase after I have the energy to take a picture of it. It's been a damn long day...

Got the first ones of these 2 done.

Only difference is that the arm logo is missing from Sant Agata, and the one on the R92 is just black.

Link if anyone wants to cop the Countach one.
 
Not including groceries or candles:
Headset (I accidently broke mine - I stepped on them when I was going to the restroom - I didn't know they where on the floor) - and an Yveltal box

Looks like a crime scene with all the little evidence markers on the lawn. :P
There almost was a crime when I hit the sprinkler line whist digging the hole for the birch! :scared:
 
How long did it take you to dig one hole?
The three on the boulevard took a total of an hour to an hour and a half, probably about the same for the two in the backyard due to them being larger. That birch for the front yard, however, was more like a total of 4-5 hours. It doesn't sound like it should take that long for a 4 foot across by 3 foot deep hole but once I was past the 8 inches of top soil, it's all clay. On the plus side, I saved about $800 digging them myself. In doing some research and asking around at work, that tree clocked in at around 1200-1500 pounds, the others were more like 200.

Serious question.
Is it common to not have fences between properties in your area? By the looks of it you don't have any on all sides including the back.
Quite unusual where I live but not totally unheard of.
 
Just looking at those trees again I can honestly say they improve the look of the front/ street so much. They must surely add their own value again to the value of your property.

It depends. At our last house (one mile away, same development) we had a 6' tall cedar fence wrapped around the entire property. Initially to keep the dogs in our yard, then to keep the kids in the yard when they were younger then to keep neighbors out when we put up the pool (city ordinance and just a good idea period) in the summer.

The kids are older now so we don't need/want them contained and the yard has a heck of a slope so there won't be any pool. Also, it got quite old (and expensive) refinishing the cedar every couple of years so I won't miss the lack of maintenance, either! I do have a small enclosure I put up this weekend for the dog so the poo is contained to one area.

Don't say that too loud. I don't want my taxes to go up again! :lol:
