I thought I'd drop by and see if the resident bullcrapper is still
around and I see he is. I thought the Boob was going to start racing
this summer. I guess like every other part of his life that was a
joke too. Now he's blaming his lack of sailing time on that retard of
a kid he has. How's life in the Bronx with that skank wife these days
Boobie? Have you found a job yet or are you still making big bucks
dumpster diving at that poluted marina?



Wow....well I'm sailing in two hours, Loco. And my sweet boy will be
joining me. I just added a light weight Genoa (a cruise-radial) to my
boat and today will be good to experiment with it. I've sailed a lot
this summer, but a 3rd of it has been on other boats. We hooked up
with some local sailors with kids, so there's been a lot of boat time
not always aboard Heart of Gold.
In addition I'm sure you'd like to see my mostly completed theater
with HD sources and 120 inch screen. It's utterly film quality and
looks better than most small to mid size theaters. Sound is perfect!

As I'm sure you're wondering, the cost of the whole theater was under
20K. Last night we watched The Mist and tomorrow it will be Nightmare
Before Christmas for Thomas on Blu-Ray. I'm running two projectors at
1080 and 720. Sound is via Magnepan and SVS speakers with Hybrid tubes
and so on...all high end, better for music than HT though.

Ah, I'm sure you want to know how I'm doing with fast cars. Well, I
got stung after driving a Nissan GT-R. What a car! But it's close to
100K for one and they are all gone for the year. So I'm on the list
with our dealer in New Rochelle for the following shipment at 10%
invoice. Still, to do that I'll wait at least a year. Meanwhile, to
keep my skills up I've ordered a sweet Exo X GSR in Graphite Gray
Pearl. Car looks like this....

I'm sure you've never driven a car with AYC, but you should. It
handles better than any other sedan and bests a Cayman S or M3 in
cornering. At just under 300 HP it's slow. 0-60 in 4.9 seconds. But my
car will go to Ivey tuning for a small tune to 390. That will bring
her into 4.3 range and better 1/4 miles. But with low end grunt at
that point the car is just wonderful. I drove one with 440 HP, but it
was a bit too much and I'd like to clutch to last me until I get the
GT-R. Two other cars I considered were the Lotus Exige, which I had to
drop due to leg room and no back seats. The 911 AWD turbo was in the
mix (a 2005 model) but amazingly it's legroom for tall drivers is
poor. The Evo is a great fit for now.

Thomas is growing up fast and having a great time aboard and at our
home in the woods.

Other than that things are great. I hope they are well with you as
well.
