Texas is only if i cant find work in arkansas. But bentonville/fayetteville area or ft. Smith/van buren area.
Go to Texas. That's where it's at, and we our coldest days are in the 20's and that's only for like one day every now and then.

Georgia has mountains up north, it's flat down south, the city is in the middle, and then the ocean is east!

It totally works.

Besides the whole "oil" thing. :roll:

Hell work offshore. South and west texasis where oil business is at right now. I don't know much of how it is in Arkansas. I would assume that would be closest choice to Colorado in likeness.

No offshore for me. I dont want to be gone that long. Thats the reason for the possible move. I have been doing this long enough that i can get a cush job and be home every night and still make decent money.

Only time will tell...

Hell I would try and get on overseas. Had a guy in guard along with my dads friend who worked in Africa. Of course that is a time away as well. I know they were doing 30 30. Awesome pay though. Hell one of them just ordered stuff and made over a grand a day.

Been gone a week, family was in town. It was nice to see my parents after a year of not seeing them, even if it was for a short time.
Merry late Christmas you boy-touchers! Been eyeballing project civics.. found one not far from me for $2k obo that is a lot cleaner than my last POS that I over-paid for. If I could get dude to $1200, I may pick it up.. not sure if I want FWD again, though. Really want something RWD. I haz the itch.

Finally edited and uploaded my best friends engagement pictures. Check them out:

Looking good!
My bass player is a phenomenal photographer (he makes a large portion of his living off of it). Check his stuff out!

If it's just an adjustment, STOP BEING LAZY! Get out there and do them! Super easy, took me a whopping 15 minutes (and that was triple checking gap).

It's pretty easy man. Get a feeler gauge and a socket set, as well as new valve cover gasket kit Make sure car is cool, find specs for valve gap as well as torque specs (both are usually located on the white catalyst sticker under the hood), remove valve cover and old gaskets, take a good size wrench with an extension and stick it on the crank pulley bolt (car has to be in neutral, and obviously safely jacked up). Crank the crank 180 degrees from it's current position. This will loosen a set of valves (3 at a time for single cam). They should be wiggle loose. From there, use the feeler tool to measure gap, loosen head bolts on valves that need adjusting, adjust accordingly. Crank the crank pulley bolt 180 degrees to rotate the crank and loosen the next set of valves, continue down the line. It was easy, and really quieted down my old POS civic.
