Flip C just drove back to Huntsville in my beloved 2000 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS.
She was a good fun car.
I don’t know if I’ll ever own a car that was as balls to the wall modified as that one was. But it sure was fun, and the experience I gained from wrenching on her is priceless.
Luckily, she’s going to a good home. Philip is a ScoobyNut much like myself. He actually owned a car nearly exactly like mine that met its untimely death a few months back thanks to a 3 day veteran of driving 
.
Philip is getting her in a stockish form. Sans turbo, suspension, big brakes, and electronic goodies. But he’s got plans of his own for her
Well, out with the old, in with the new
A better pic is coming, I promise!
250 ponies, and 250 ft/lbs of torque to haul my groceries and new baby around with.
All that and All Wheel Drive too 
I’m still in the break in period, so she’s yet to see anything north of 4000RPM (and it already puts a smile on my face).
This car is fun to drive, it hauls ass and groceries, and it’s got plenty of room for my family of about to be 3.
Sport-Utilities are so inappropriately named…
New look to the site…
I still want to customize it like I did the last one but alas, no time…

If you live in Alabama (like I do), let your state Representative and Congressman know you don’t want any part of a bill to burn dump books in a big hole.
You can find out who your rep and senator is by going here:
Look up your Alabama rep
You’ll need to know your ZIP+4
For those of you that don’t know what this is about, HB30 which was introduced by Representative Gerald Allen of Tuscaloosa. (And people wonder why I despise the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa). HB30’s meat and potatoes follows:
No public funds or public facilities shall be used by any state agency, public school, public library, or public college or university for the purchase, production, or promotion of printed or electronic materials or activities that, directly or indirectly, sanction, recognize, foster, or promote a lifestyle or actions prohibited by the sodomy and sexual misconduct laws of the state of Alabama.
In other words, it bans books, and in the process makes our state look like a bunch of morons from the dark ages. Get on the phone, kick out an email, Get Mad.
Despite the fact that this bill died in the Education Committee last week, let your Rep and Congressman know that this type of Nazi action will not make Alabama a better state.
