Hula Girls 2006. I did not expect at all but it was all in Japanese... Nice story and tears came down quite a few times. $25. The Main SDK girl from TKO was good.
Thanks!

Porsche long hood crest


Replaced dinged Porsche Crest on the hood. It did make the entire car more shine.... But the part is a bit less detailed than the original it was on.  $28

To see the origin of the crest you can read at here or here or here


Bogle 2005 Zinfandel california. So so. Sweet vanila and oak bit bit thin and watery. $13 at wholefoods.

Hey Mombo 2006 California Sultry Red Wine. Too smooth and no punch for me. Nice to have a cork-less cap but only worth $5.

The Bourne Ultimatum 2007. This is the weakest on in the series for me. The plot is boring and the lady supervisor is weak. But since it was airline 6inch viewing, I might have become bitter... $8.

Custom Alignment in Mountain View. Front Bearing re-packed, New rear bushing and bearing, New Yokohama Tires, and Alignment. Feels like a much better car. Milder ride. Also Tire became from R205/50/15 to R195/60/15. Narrower and taller. I bet that contributed for better ride feel too. $1800

The Ultimate Gift 2006. Was recommended but kind an ordinally plot... The little girl is good in it. $8.

Into the Wild 2007. Base on true story and book. Sean Penn took camera. Nice movie. Read the book too but was a bit long ago and can not remember well. $15.
