New England B.S. Thread

I've found my kids to be less whiny than some of my co-workers.

 

It's not the whining. It's more the destruction. Every day taking literally everything out in every room. And our 4year old son is like fucking spider man, and every time you turn your head the kid has scaled around on the outside of the deck, or on the top of the tree house thing attached to the swingset, or over the yards fence.

And just generally being loud. Most of the time they are relatively quiet. But the second you're on a call they are miraculously screaming, running around and generally destroying. Every damn time.

 

I'm running the EBC stage 4 kit, Amazon has a few in stock:

EBC S4KF1494 Stage-4 Signature Brake Kit, BLACK

I just installed the Power stop Z36 tow/haul/ 4x4 pads and slotted/ drilled rotors. Have yet to drive on them yet as i still need to bleed the brakes. I'll let you know how I feel about them after the VT trip this weekend.

 

Anyone know that tattoo artists around here? I'm in RI, if that helps.

I am looking for this type of shading - black outline/filler, no white ink. I don't want roses, this was just the first google that came up that shows the style/technique I'm looking for. BUT the biggest hurdle, I'm looking for an artist who does volunteer work for breast cancer patients. Not trying to fit into that category, but that's kind of the type I'm looking to support. Looking to do a full or full and a half sleeve with the left arm too, still working on the design for the half but the full I'm decently far along.

 

Looks like Amazon has the pads I wanted...
Looking at these guys:

daily dose of birth control right there

I personally like anchor steam in newport, I go there but I don't have that style of tattoo. Looks like one of their artists can do that though:

my buddy tiago up in lowell, ma does a lot of shading but i don't know if either of these guys do any volunteer work

 

I definitely don't have as much weight as you do on the daily but do tow heavy. I run the z36 kit as well and have been very pleased. Definitely an improvement over stock. Added weight on the daily is just sliders, cap, and small toolbox, and my fat ass lol

 

Cool beans, thank you! I also have to catch myself getting too detailed for tattoo work. Don't want it to fade into a blob of nothing in 2 years. I had that problem designing my first one, I came in with wayyyy to intricate details. And colors. Keeping it bold and black this time

 

I bet they're less whiny than many of mine (and most of my coworkers are teachers).

 

Funny how that works out..

I swear this is like my cats, the little brats are always fighting or just yelling at me when I have to do something like this.

 

@Sloth Did you look into Speal Programming or Garage Gym Athlete at all while you were searching? Thinking about switching it up and those two seem interesting. Speal is seems similar to Linchpin but with added strength work. Garage Gym Athlete seems like a lot of movements, could be too much to do everyday (for me at least).

 

I've got no experience with those, but my primary concern would be pad life with anything intended for racing.

 

We've been doing Speal Masters programming the past few weeks. I like it. There's strength cycles incorporated along with extra stretching/mobility for us geezers.

 

Good morning all
Happy Birthday Nuno @Cativelense

 

Happy Birthday @Cativelense

 

Happy birfday @Cativelense !!

Maybe I'll get the week trial of it and see how it goes, looks like its through BTWB just like Linchpin

 

Thanks so much fellas.

 

Ya BTWB or Sugarwod. I use BTWB, but Sugarwod is good too. Our box (that were currently taking a break from due to 'Rona)uses Sugarwod to put out/ track all their workouts.

 

Hi all. I’m visiting Newport, RI for a few weeks & wondering if there are any community meet-ups or events happen between now & mid Sept. I know it’s tough getting together with the COVID mitigation but hopeful something is happening that we can do safely. I’ve already completed by 15 days of ROM & I’m stir-crazy!

Cheers!
