Little About Me:
A lot of the things I do are low-budget or do-it-yourself. I look for sales, rebates or discounts or buy things second-hand. And since I have no college or credit card debt, I also help people budget their time and money. I dont even think I eat fast-food once a week! (maybe once a month) I just find it staggering when someone drops 20K into a car that their parents bought for them. I don't mean that to be insulting in any way but it boggles the mind. My parents never bought me a car when I was 16. (or even 18 or 21) But they did give me money from time to time like any other parent. (which I prompty stuffed back into their purse or wallet when they weren't watching) I guess with me, it's all about "pride"

The two brothers. Same parents but the one on the left is from the 1st litter and the one on the right is from the 2nd litter. Upon request (not "command" as they're cats) they both can stand up, shake both paws and "talk". Most of the time they come when called. The older brother can also fetch and place both paws on your hand. The younger one will stand and touch his nose to mine. Cats are cool.

The Amazing X32... Almost there!

I can probably do it for 5K or less.
And if youre wondering why the Photoshop is crappy, its probably because I was lazy and used Paint. =P

I'll talk about this one a bit:
A BioDiesel or SVO Truck/Van. (3K for the truck, 1K for the kit)
It's good for the environment! Almost reminds me of the robot from Judge Dread. "Recycled Food: It's good for the environment and OK for you." I'm actually doing research into it as we speak. It would be cool to drive and cool to talk about. Decent power, Decent gas mileage. Smells like burgers or tacos and it actually makes a diesel engine RUN BETTER. So who knows. I might actually get this one.

UPDATE: Actually, I think I might go with SVO. I'll explain the difference. BioDiesel can run in ANY diesel truck. You just fill it up and go. You create BioDiesel by taking used oil and use additives to turn into a fuel. That is where the investment lies. Straight-Vegetable Oil (SVO) on the other hand doesnt need additives. You simply run your Diesel vehicle until the engine and the oil heat up sufficiently. (The oil is heated for better viscosity) Then you flip a switch and your engine runs straight off the SVO. The investment there lies in the modification to the engine. You need to run separate lines as well as a dedicated filters, oil tank and a heating element. Then before you shut down the car, you need to switch BACK to diesel to prevent the SVO from clogging the engine when it cools down. So SVO might be for me. Since I am really tight on living space.

Straight Vegetable Oil isn't very flammable, so it's safe in the gas tank..
Straight Vegetable Oil lubricates the engine making it run better and longer.
Straight Vegetable Oil doesn't contribute to the Greenhouse Effect.
Straight Vegetable Oil doesn't smell bad and has almost no bad emmissions.
Straight Vegetable Oil is FREE. (from most restaurant, diners and fast food joints)

Ive always liked them. Need AC though. Again under 5K.

Love these cars too. I used to drive them all the time.

Another one! Off-roading looks like fun... and I can use it fight zombies. =P

What can I say. Sterlings look cool.






I made this custom bookcase to fit my paperbacks.
Went to City Mill and picked up plywood. (torched and stained it)

My Dad's 600cc Honda Silverwing
(Fully Automatic, It really flies on the freeway)

And the 300 Limited I rented for my sister's Prom.
Awesome car. The only thing I didn't like was the gas mileage.
(The digital readout put it at 17 mpg)

---CAUTION---
Don't rent from Thrifty or Dollar, they cut corners on everything.
Bad customer service + I had to totally clean the car myself!
