These are the cars I typically will not park next to:
SUV's
Mini Vans
4 Door pickups
Anything with a child seat
Most of these people do not pay attention to their surroundings and these are the ones that I see doing the most damage.
Agreed like 2,000,000%. I know that's a big percent.
I've taken up the habit of parking as far away from the general population of cars as I can. 1) it's healthier for me to walk the extra distance. 2) though I'm a little more worried about people breaking in to my car, the dark tint should assuage some of that and I don't park in the dark.
I've also taken the habit of inspecting my car every time I get ready to get into it. Take a quick walk around it in front of my house before I leave to go anywhere then a quick walk around it after I'm leaving my destination to return home. I used to park on the street in front of my old house on Long Island and one day I found someone had managed to bend my driver's side mirror up so that one of the bolt's broke and scratch the paint off. I was sooo angry it was RIGHT after I got ripped off in having them painted. Now it vibrates every time I stop at a light.

I have a few things to add.
I've been on a cooking bug since I moved back to NC for a couple of reasons:
1) bone crushing lonliness
2) Lack of car things to do (...damn you, winter)
3) Anticipation of husband returning from deployment.
4) Lack of awesome places to eat in Fayetteville.
So, I present to you the Lizzy cooking album thingie. I frequently add new photos in this album, which should be public to everyone lol

The beauty of the United States is that we have choices and aren't mandated to do things a certain way.
For that I shall align my sigpic to the right to spite you all. @_@

I need the throttle body too. So intake manifold and throttle body
-
Wow what a beautiful job! You did that all yourself? Super amazing! O.o
-
Isn't it profile, sidewall, diameter? or am I dumb?
-
I've been after one of these for a while, and the one time I saw one for sale on another forum I couldn't get the cash together in time. > So if anyone sees one or has one for sale someday, I'm interested!!!! I think around $100 is fair, but I'm a little flexible.
-
for snow I should go with a smaller profile, but I think it will rain here more than snow which would make me lean towards a bigger profile like my 17's. Either way, those tires will be a huge improvement over the crap I have now so whichever works I guess

I just rented Left 4 Dead (the first one) and I was a little disappointed there wasn't more of a story behind it than just the opening video. I'm gonna play some other games then rent L4D2 and see how that goes, though I'm probably only gonna play it when I need to blow off some steam.
W@W I just picked up yesterday as a present for my hubby when he gets back, but I might break it in a little bit before he does actually return. Also preordered Bioshock 2 collector's edition for Xbox and MAG
Looking forward to both a lot!

I was thinking red spiral but I might go some crazy insane color choice like Dr. Fab 'cause he's an inspiration. o_o-b
Those steelies badly need new tires too. >< I'm thinking Goodyear GT's for the rain and the snow(?) that'll come next winter in NC
