  Paint Stripping my 1969 Ford Mustang Body Panels
Well I've set up my garage and I'm researching methods to do body panel stripping. What a pain! All the professionals make suggestions that are impractical for regular guys. However I found one guy like me who posted paint stripping methods that worked for him. Hopefully they'll work for me!

  I'm getting old.....going on a diet
Wow. I go to the doctor for an injured shoulder and realize I weigh in at around 188lbs. I thought I weighed around 175 but after getting a good look at myself I realize I'm actually putting on the weight!! I guess this has been going on for close to a year now. All the things that tend to cause a person to work out less and sit around more have been happening.

1.) Getting a steady girlfriend.

Why do women always lead to men getting out of shape? I guess its because you spend at least 1/3 of your free time doing "relationship" things. Now this doesn't necessarily mean picking flowers or doing romantic stuff to entertain the little woman. It just means that they take up alot of that time you'd spend playing basketball or looking at hot chicks while jogging at the LSU lakes for example.

2.) Working like a savage.

I've been working alot lately. We've got alot going on and I'm a big part of making it all happen. Unfortunately for my fitness that means sitting on my butt around 8-10 hours a day.

Well it looks like I'll be getting fit and watching what I eat from now on. Used to be I would just be myself and stay in shape but not anymore. Hell I might even start a website to help me motivate myself.

Well time to start a work week!! Everyone have a good one.

Hi everyone! I've been working my tail off for the last couple of months getting together College Toolbars. Designing the next cool yet simple thing is alot of hard work. However in the very near future we'll finish polishing out our diamond in the rough!



I've also purchased that air compressor as I've noted in my 69 Mustang updates page. I've run the wire through the attic to the garage and cleaned up everything so that soon I'll be bringing my classic car project to a place that will be right here and under control. I will finally be able to make real, fast and steady progress on once again putting my car on the road.

  Putting in a 220 Volt Air Compressor
I've been working on moving my Classic Mustang project to my home in Baton Rouge so that I can work on it more often. This weekend I learned about what a pain it can be to install a 220 volt plug-in to my garage so that I can run a big enough air compressor to do the work. It looks so simple yet so much is involved in running whats basically a power cord across your house. So I learned this week and stretched a 10-2 power line across the attic. This week I'll decide on an Air Compressor from Harbor Freight and get all the stuff to install the cable. Should be fun.

  July 4th weekend.
Wow I've actually taken a couple of days off over July 4th weekend. Its so strange not working on a Monday as I haven't done that in so long. I'd be out on the road already but I'm waiting on my girlfriend to get ready to go spend some time at L'Auberge Du Lac Hotel & Casino. Its a beautiful new place that was just built in Lake Charles, Louisiana thats about as close to Vegas as you'll get in Louisiana.

I'm looking forward to UFC 61 - Bitter Rivals coming up this weekend. I want to see Tito Ortiz and Ken Shamrock brawl it out and get it done. The UFC has been the source of much of my entertainment as of lately. I love the live action and the fact that the events occur often. I even started keeping a Sports & UFC page on my website where I write a little about UFC events and major sporting events I watch.(such as World Cup and LSU sports)
