Can anyone help me with a drifting question?

Posted by admin on August 1st, 2010

I took an "advanced driving" class at a local police training center and learned 180, 360 spins, and a bunch of other stuff… After that i’ve started to think that drifting looks like it would be really fun so I’m looking into giving it try. I’m running into one major problem.. IM NOT RICH!!! How on earth do u pay like 0 bucks for tires every day u go drifting?? I know people in competition get sponsors but getting there takes practice right?? How do people afford this?
A response to the first comment, as his need to find self satisfaction at the expense of others obviously exceeds his knowledge of the topic. (driving schools and what they teach)

I took an advanced driving class. They were teaching us how to recover from all kinds of incidences. They said that their "philosophy" was that learning moves like the 360/180 will give you more confidence in your ability to control and recover the car through skidding, which it obviously does. The moves themselves are not necessary on the road but controlling your car through a skid can be.

How do I find this marketing experiment video? A couple guys need to create a taxidermy ad campaign.?

Posted by Jeff on July 13th, 2010

The guys take a pre-mapped trip to an office building and are told to design an ad campaign for a taxidermy company. Along the way, there are visual cues that eventually "inspire" the final design. I saw the video a while back, and haven’t been able to find it.

I thought I was the only person in the world who was afraid of taxidermy animals!?

Missed court date, what to do?

Posted by admin on June 26th, 2010

alright, so here’s the scenario:

i had a court date set for february 3rd; i thought that it was february the 13th. today’s the fifth, and i’m terrified right now. i was caught shoplifting from a belk’s department store. the value was 0. i want everyone to know that i’m not a bad kid – i’m valedictorian in my senior class, i try really hard at everything, and i simply made a mistake. please don’t tell how bad of a person i am because believe me – i’ve heard this enough.

i just want honest advice.
my mother called a lawyer,
and he said that he could take care of the missed court date and the shoplifting charge for 0, but my parent’s have little to no money and this option is out of the question.

what can i do from this point?
OR if you have any advice on how to come up with 800 bucks quick, let me know.

serious answers only, please.

Do you guys think I am a spoiled kid?

Posted by admin on June 18th, 2010

my friends say im spoiled because i always have money to spend on myself and them(i get them 30+ dollor presents for christmases, birthdays, and cards for every holiday i can think of. (the friends i am talking about are 4 BEST friends that ive known since kindergarden) i dont have a scheduled chore list, all my mom asks me to do is wash the dishes and clean my room(i dont get allowance) and gives me 10 dollors every time i pamper her for an hour(wich im happy to do, i love my mom.) and when im with my dad who i see every other weekend(two weekends a month, div. parents) my dad takes me on little adventures to to stores in LA mainly Amoeba records. i dont do that every time im with him. also, my mother gives me 20 bucks a week for food at school (3-5 bucks a day depending on what/if i buy) and some weeks i bring my own lunch and secretly save the money away. does all this make me spoiled? i dont feel like i flaunt with all my money by wearing designer lables. i dress in a band shirt and jeans everyday and i dont wear any makeup besides eye makeup, i dont do anything with my hair. my biggest investment is my vinyl and cd collection.

more details
-15 years old is the age
-300 hundred dollars in cash every xmas(rich aunts and uncles on dads side who are in show business and are lawyers)
-my dad is a carpet cleaning buisness owner(working class job)
-my mom is a social worker
-live in Garden Grove, Orange County(NOT the rich part in South County, i live next to huntigton beach in north county)
-all the furniture in my room is hand-me-downs except for my bed.
-really great sounding stereo, wich includes pre-amp, 5 disc cd player, record player, and subwofer<— which used to be my sister<—-which she found on ebay
-i currently have 180 dollors in my wallet
-i love green day and buy memorabilia every chance i get
-same with the beatles
-i have depression caused by a chemical imbalance wich means meds for life(i duno if this is relevent)
-i get pretty good grades
-i fight with my mom a lot but hey im a teenager
-i dont celebrate my birthdays(parents usually forget and give me a cd or dvd when they remember)
-no HDtvs in my house, 1 HDtv in my dads house.
-i have a Russian Toy Terrier puppy that i got for 100 buck from christmas money
-the most expensive thing in my room (besides my bed) is a 7” vinyl set of Green Day singles that was – i think – at least 0.

sorry guys if this is a lot to read, i am really bored, but interested in your opinions.
to the user "gurunvelbar" i actually do drink a lot of water. and i dont eat a lot of junk food, mainly because i wasn’t raised. my dad is greek and my mom is mexican so that means a lot of home-cooked food. not saying that i dont eat junk food at all. i do have the occasional corn nut =]
*raised to
oh and the depression thing, i think it’s genetic because my dad is bipolar(hes not as out of control as a lot of people think when i say that) and my brother also has a chemical imbalance. hes 21.

Muzzleloader Hunting Technique – Is This Possible / Probable?

Posted by Jeff on June 18th, 2010

Where I hunt, there is basically a LARGE patch of woods. Right up to / next to it, is a large grass field. This is used to bail grass. If facing the woods, to the left, is a dirt field with TONS of hoof tracks. All along the field / tree line, are hoof tracks. Then in one spot, a small field of hay where deer activity is everywhere.

Could I setup in the field itself, and then take shot(s) at deer on the edgeline? Inside the woods even using a shotgun is kinda hard in most area. As there is not many open / straight areas to shoot. I know shotguns aren’t for LONG distances, but a nice muzzleloader can got hundreds of yards. What do you all think?

where can i get taxidermy done to my animal?

which is the best turkey hunting technique.?

Posted by Jeff on June 16th, 2010

im a beginner in turkey hunting and ive been doing my research. ive found 2 hunting types that i like. i can either set up a ground blind and a couple of decoys on the edge of a field and try and call in a tom. (the only thing is i wont have an opportunity to scout so i would have to hunt in the field not knowing whether a toms around. though during deer season we did see a few turkeys in the field.) the second style would be to walk around my dads 140 acres and yelp and see if we can get a gobble(the only thing is i don’t know the property that well and id have to bring my dad along so there would be a second person along. what tactic do you think that would be the best even though each have their draw backs. this is for spring turkey hunting by the way. any advise is helpful. also if i were to move around in the day trying to locate a tom would i use a yelp or a crow locator call. ill try and get a tom to gobble up in his tree the night before woth a crow call but i dont think ill have much luck so these are my back up plan.
