Walking through Solvang

Windmills are cool.

Open plate Danish sandwich. Where's the bread? There's only a tiny little piece of Pumpernickel bread underneath each pile. It sounded good from the menu. I still ate it all though. It was okay.

Really, we just went there for the Danish pancakes, ebelskivers.

Sarah and I went to Solvang and Santa Barbara to celebrate our 2nd Anniversary.

Mazda Zoom Zoom Live 2006

It looks like we're both scared! Josh went to the Mazda event too. It was fun trying to see who got better times. I think he got slightly better times than me because I drove first and he got to see the course as a passenger before his runs. This is a picture of us in the MAZDASPEED 6. It's a great handling sports sedan.

Here's a link to last year's Mazda Zoom Zoom Live with me driving the new MX-5.

Modified Miatas

The new MX-5 is a great handling car. It's perfect for autocrosses.

This year it seemed like they had a smaller budget than last year's event. There was less stuff to see and there was no free food. This year, we got to drive the MAZDASPEED 6's, which are suped up versions of the Mazda 6. Last year, I drove the new third generation MX-5 on the Challenge course.

I needed to beat the target time of 34.00 seconds. My time on my first and only run was 35.781 sec. I didn't want to get back in line and wait over an hour to prove myself. The lines are way too long at this event!

Here's the list of the best drivers at the event. Notice the fastest time was by a woman.

I went to the Mazda Zoom Zoom Live event this past Saturday, October 28, 2006 in Fontana. It was a fun driving experience. It was like a mini-autocross event that challenges drivers to beat the clock. Unfortunately for me, I need to improve my autocrossing skillz if I want to seriously compete. My illegal street racing techniques can only get me so far.

Rejection Hotline

This is for all you mean girls out there. If some loser jerk asks for your number, give them a number from the rejection hotline list. The jerkoff will think that you gave him your real number and when he calls it, the voice recording will inform him that he has been rejected. Ouch! What a burn!

Bear Meat

I just had bear meat over the weekend. One of Sarah's parents friends came back from a bear hunting trip and brought us some spoils of war. It tasted good. It tasted like deer meat. No, it didn't taste like chicken. Frog legs taste like chicken.

One of my life goals is to try and eat everything. I've tried a lot of different foods, but I think I still have a long ways to go. Fortunately for me, there's nothing I won't eat.
