Is that the sound of a 24 valve, 3.0L DOHC V6? Why yes it is, in fact! The picture above is of my car, if you haven’t already figured that out. I’ve had some requests to post a picture of it, since some readers have not seen it. It’s a ’99 Ford Taurus, sortof a gold color. A very popular make\/model\/color, I know where at least 3 other identical cars are parked. I’ve walked up to the wrong car in the commuter parking lot a time or two already! The taurus has been great to me so far, and I thank my grandparents very much for hooking me up with it.<\/p>\n

As for other news, the band Flogging Molly played a show up here at Michigan Tech. I would describe them as a celtic punk rock band. Their music is a little different for those not accustomed to it, but I like it quite a bit. I’m sorry I didn’t take a camera to the show so I could post some pictures. Their music has a lot of energy, and they put on an awesome show.<\/p>\n

Not much is going on besides that, the weather is getting colder and we are seeing snow flakes in the air more and more often. Thanksgiving break is just under a month off now and I am really looking forward to the break from classes. It’s hard (for me) to believe I haven’t been in the LP since June.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
