Some serene beauty there
Thanks for sharing

 

DITTO...when my wife got pregnant with my son, i got pregnant too....lol i have a lil food baby goin on now that probably renders my boards useless to float my fat ass now

 

@ Budman and @ Silver02Taco send me your addresses guys...i have some stickers that need to come your way that you'll appreciate .....Point Break inspired

 

Rad man. I’m goofy too. Haven’t been out in while especially since my car accident in June. I’ve been trying to shave off my food/beer belly cause my short board doesn’t float me anymore lmao

Still got 3 Stewart long boards at my parents place I grab and surf SC sometimes though. Goal for this winter is build back strength in my shoulder and get back out there next summer.

My parents are in San Ramon too btw. Close to Lafayette. If I’m ever down there I’ll let ya know. Dad got his masters way back in the day at Saint Mary’s. I was invited to play lacrosse their but I wanted to move away.

 

i don't blame you for wanting to leave....Lafayette is, well, it's perfect for SOME people...not us. Its nice and safe and all that, but it ain't my kind of people. my gal did two years at St. Mary's too- we are just waiting for her to finish up her two years of school, then get started in her career, so about 5-6 years from now, we aim to be living in Oregon, Portland area or within an hour of the city. We love it up there....so sick of California, the bay area in particular. traffic is getting so bad. they just keep cramming more and more people into an area that doesn't have the infrastructure for it. its turning into a mini Los Angeles.....

 

Do you guys get pitted?

 

came across this at work today.
stay away from jiffy lubes.

also this good info to check to see if a shop has been busted for crap before you take your car to them.

Quality.

 

Can't believe I've never seen that one.

Obvious suspicions confirmed.

 

skip to page 46 and start reading from there on the fraud charges for Firestone. You all might see why you have so many problems with them.

The guys at BAR due some amazing shit to catch these guys. They don't get paid enough for what they do. they have a really nice shop/lab that's about all I can say about what they do. I was asked to keep quite about the details on what I saw in there shop. But its no secret that they exist, yet we still have a huge problem with crappy ass service shops.

 

CA Firestone is on probation until July 2018 and Hayward location until July 2019.
those of you that have had problems with them should file a complaint.
Not sure if this is worthy of its own thread, maybe a mod can chime in.
or I can add a hot chick pic to get there attention .lol

 

i had the BAR go after asshats at BigO in Vacaville for damaging a center cap and not paying up and telling me to get bent.

While the BAR agent couldnt get him to pay up they dug through their files and found a ton of weird stuff and inconsistencies to where he was able to fine them.

 

One of my buddies was a mechanic with them and he would go in to the car see what was wrong so they can take it in and see what they say he would mark bolts and caps and things to see if they even touched what th4ey said they did
