Default Most ashamed of/hardest decision...

Dig back in your past. Bear yore sole

Speek on either a HARD choice yu hadda make, and teh consequences, OR, something yu did yu aren't exactly proud of...

I'll start with a hard decision I hadda make a little over a year ago.

I wanted to get another set of wheels. Always lusted after A8's. So I started doing a little searchin round teh net. Found a '98 up in Jersey for $9,500. HIGHer mileage, to be sure (125K), but, I actually went up and drove it. EVERYTHING felt sooper-tight. 2 minor paint chips, unnoticable from 12-15 feet away, so I'm stoked. Guy want $500 to hold it. I tell him I'm a Kharma kinda guy. If it was meant 2 B mine it'll be there when I come back with financing. Bank wont touch it... Too old a car, too high mileage...

So, I re-start my search for something that fits the banks criteria. Find a nice Cream over Tan A8, '99, 38K, $19,995 out the door. Some guy gives teh dealer $22K for it, SCHITT

They've got another one... Silver over Black, A8, '99, 48k, $18, 950 out the door...
OR
Black over Baseball-glove, 255-TT, '00, 50K, $19,995 out the door...

I went with teh one that hadda back seat

I got one...

When I was 16, I (yes, with my own money) purchased a Triumph TR7. Beautiful car, rag top, black, great shape. Had alot of fun with it. When it was time for me to go to University I had to sell it inorder to afford the cost. I sold it to a older friend... car guy, had a few TR's. I sold it for the appraised value. He agree that when I graduated, I could buy it back for the appraised value.

Well to make a long story short... a week before I graduated, his wife takes my car out for a spin and totaled it. I was not a happy guy at that point. She never took the TR's out. It was his hobby but this one time!!!! [:@]

Jeez were to begin, the most recent i had to make was either run from a cop or not, in the past i decided to run a few times and got away but then again it was night and i was going fast enough were he couldnt even get up to my speeds but thsi one time i decided to stop and for it i got a misdeamenor charge but i had a A hole DA and he tried to get me as an adult and a felony. my first car i loved because it was my first and even though i had bad luck with it i didnt want to give it up, but alas i did and now i have a batter car. this really hot girl( kinda like a latino meg ryan with bigger ****) wanted to go out with me, but i knew she was a drinker and smoker and would party every night so i basically turned her down, i coulda got some from her, but from what i here shes got kicked outta the house and is no dating this loser i used to work with. i really love being close to my family espacially my parent but to persue an education i will be moving up to houghton, michigan to attend michigan technological university. i also wanted to be a doctor and i have the want and know how but not the grade so im no persuing either mechanical or electrical engineering. ive had amny friends but in my old town i had my first true friend, when i moved i eventually cut ties with him cause i kinda felt he was a bad seed, i went back a few weeks later just to say hi his mum told me that she didnt know were he was and another friend told me he was now into drugs and stuff. i am a very horny person, i chose to be abstinant, im still very very horny.

No, that was how I MacGuyvered my way out of a Cambodian prison camp. I'm actually rather proud of that one.

This is the one to which I am referring. Click the first link in the first post for the whole story.
