Compressing time…

April 28th, 2005 by Josh Houghtelin

I'm admist many things right now. It's kindof fun. Lets start with the scriptzoring webwork.

Burnmytime V2 is moving along. It's going to take a bit longer then I had immediately assumed. I'm doing my best to write quality code, review it, make it better, review it, etc… Seeing as I've never realy apreciated the final product (the code base, not the product itself) I'm doing my best to do this right. It's kindof difficult doing something right when you only know how to do it wrong. lol. Either way it's comming along and will be VERY cool when it's done. If you want any of your pics andy I can either make a quick photo-gallery (html-ized) or email em to ya during the downtime. this PHPx doesn't wanna work with me to get em backup =(.

StreamLineDreams.com has been registered. Zippy and I will be working on hooking that up the best way we can. It's for our local automotive club amungst the kids around here. It'll be plastered with images to glorify everything with a motor in it and the owner who drives it. I forsee a forums, gallery, a buncha write-ups, and so-on. It's a long overdue project finaly getting under way. From what I understand theres quite a few people who represent SLD these days. hehe.

Zippys Blog.. This project hasn't taken off the ground yet but it has been lingering in the air. Now zippy has a HARDCORE digital camera and she's gettin back into the swing of things. I forsee this project to begin shortly. Just as soon as she goes “ok. I want a blog damnit”. lol. I'm probably mroe excited then her about seeing her blog. lol. I get to see all her photos and love all of em but it'll be even hotter when I get to read her public descriptions and explinations of each. Le Hotness….

Ok. Onto the other things.

I've been riding in the rain quite a bit lately so I decided to take a two day leave from riding to strip it down entirely. I've got all the plastics off. It's quite naked right now. I've got all the plastics cleaned up real nice. The lower plastic was grey and I just wasn't feelin it so my friend Stubby offered to paint it.. FREE!!! I love this guy. I removed the stickers so it's much much cleaner overall. Once I get that gloss black lower on there it should be HOT HOT HOT! I took off the mudflap - fender and built a cheap $5 fender elminitation kit. I started working with fiberglass to build custom LED blinkers for the rear. I believe my final decision on rear blinkers will be to put “RR” stagered on both the left and right facing the apropriate direction for each side. Each R will be staggered ontop of the other. It should turn out quite nice. Last but not least I'm tagging the windshield with streamlinedreams.com represting with the rest of the locals that enjoy what we roll in/on.

I've been working on scrounging up $700 in avialable funds to get my brother in TX to bring the Supra up. He's drivin it till I can manage the funds. I should be able to gather em up relatively quickly on the simple grounds that I believe he'll drive it like it's hot until he delivers it. lol. When it gets up here I'll be able to put all my tools I bought for car modding back to work. PLUS we finaly got the garage door to work so I'll have some place to strip it down at given the need.

I GOT MY CAMERA! I ordered a video camera off ebay. I had it delivered today. Havn't got the box in my hands yet but it will be shortly. Live on digital media. gotta love it! I'll start posting videos just as soon as I can! ROCK ON!
