G'Mornin'! It's 7:15 am, 73*F on its way to the upper 80s (quite a cool-down). Highs only in the uper 70's this weekend, with some showers possible, which are badly needed. Let the weekend begin!

From the October 2003 Motor Trend issue (New Car Buyer's Guide)...

"...to make it friendlier for everyday driving...."

To be honest, this quote scares me. There has been some dialog on the forum that Honda is compromising the true sportscar feel for some creature comforts. Softer ride...things like that. If that's true, I would be highly disappointed. One of this cars strengths is it's true pure naked sporscar feel. No outside temp guage, no power seats, no soft ride, etc. It's exactly like the old sportscars. From what I hear, if you want a compromised sportscar, get the 350Z. I understand the 9,000RPM redline may go away too. Boo.

Sunny and nice. Going to 82, BUT "strong PM storms". Figures, we'll be sitting at the Jake for 2 hour rain delays.

Thanks for reminding me. I HAVE to get that done before I'm shut out on rooms. If I come I'll bring my 15 year old.

Buenos Morning All:

And yes, it's still morning even on the Right side! Early conf. call (every Fri.) with my group. Still at home; need to finish packing for my trip to C-bus.

Happy Friday! Be safe and enjoy the weekend! No fireworks, okay?

Hello, everyone! 76*F, sauna-like humidity and it's raining like the dickens! Unfortunately, I just checked the radar, and there's a "hole" in the precipitation right over my community. (I live about 30 mi. from where I work.) Dang! I REALLY need some rain around my neck of the woods! I know! I'll plan something for out in the backyard this weekend, and then it'll rain...

Okay, 'nuff complaining. Hope everyone has a great holiday weekend! Be safe!
