polley 916 Report post Posted August 27, 2015 In some cases both. My mate and I looked at a nearby open home while taking a break from building the deck on his house yesterday. Old white neighbor of open home gave us the 'yellow peril' speech. I played dumb and let him dig his hole deeper and deeper until I informed him that my mate's wife was Asian. He then spluttered and stammered while we walked away. Some old people have good reason to be the way they are. They likely saw or experienced some nasty things during war time's. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

qube 3570 Report post Posted August 29, 2015 was playing some fun computer games with my friend till about 1am on this lovely saturday evening and about 5 minutes after he left. heard some noises etc and went downstairs to discover one of the slider doors wide open and the front door unlocked with some shoes missing from the shoe rack infront of the main door. amongst were one of my favorite rare nike sneakers worth probably about $300 but also kind of priceless as they are pretty rare and cant be found locally. as well as some other nikes (flatmates.. gotta tell them tomorrow, didnt want to wake them up so late at night) and for some reason the robber took one left and one right of different shoes, maybe he ran away in them no idea.. my friend told me after i told him what happened that he did see someone walking around the road as he was leaving my house in his car. sigh what a lovely night. now im a bit paranoid as to the house's security etc. sigh. sigh sigh...

zero 1162 Report post Posted August 29, 2015 White people murdered my family and stole my land. Good enough reason. So hate the individuals that murdered your family and stole your land. Don't hate all people in the world with the same skin colour as those individuals. I have white skin and I didn't murder your family or steal your land.

kulgan 1042 Report post Posted August 29, 2015 (edited) Boredom. This sucks. Wanna do stuff and cant. Pulled the cupholder out of the spare parts car yesterday and though it was only a 20 min job it was a real "pain"..lol Trying to get into the car on those angles was probably not a wise idea in my state.

kulgan 1042 Report post Posted August 29, 2015 ha ha.. I agree. Trying now to get my hands on a 00 740i here in town but the owner and I are still a long way away from eachother on price. The body and upholstery are shot and it's done over 300k. BUT. Its had a 6 speed manual conversion and someones done the work and put a large case LSD in it. I want those bits in my 740..lol 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kulgan 1042 Report post Posted August 30, 2015 From what he's been telling me the PO did the conversion using a M5 6 speed and the diff was done using a 95 740i large case diff with the internals from a E32 LSD. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kulgan 1042 Report post Posted August 30, 2015 Just need the s62 and life will be choice Then you'd have the M7 BMW never built. I knew I'd seen that conversion done. This guy even managed the M5 diff into the E38 as well. http://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?2104692-E38-swapped-S62&highlight=s62 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neal 544 Report post Posted August 30, 2015 Local council passed a bylaw which means you can no longer wash cars on the driveway. Apparently the local BP drive through car wash is my only option now unless I create a grass area. Only thing with creating a grass area is the council passed a bylaw protecting the trees on the rest of the section a couple years before. Might as well start using sandpaper on the paint finish now 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
