I've actually been sleeping in so much it's not even funny. Yesterday I woke up at 5pm.
But yeah, I'm a pretty strong insomniac anyway. I wish hockey was around so I could actually do something with my time. I miss having breakfast in bed while watching the Devils play the Kings, Ducks, or any team in the pacific time zone.
I miss staying up until 2:00 AM Eastern when the coverage of the West Coast games were wrapping up. Now I sit in here with the TV on ABC or something, and don't even know what's really on.
The way some black people get ashamed when they see black people acting crazy in WORLDSTARHIPHIP videos is how I felt when I'd read Korean Devil's posts.
how much money I can make sitting on my ass 18 hours a day.

2 questions for the TaN. anyone with expertise, who I haven’t pissed off in the past, please feel free to weigh in
1…my car. 09 acura…but its silver. I got it for the price, but I’d love to have it painted a different color. has anyone ever done this? does it actually come out looking good? any idea on costs/potential problems?
2…money. I have a substantial amount of money in my savings account. I’ll provide the number if needed. I’d like to invest this in such a way that my interest return is the most substantial. any thoughts? any companies you think would be good for me to work with on this?
thanks all!

don't get your car painted. sell it and buy a car in the color you want if it means that much to you. if you get it painted it will either cost a LOT or come out looking like ****.
It's effing ridiculous. Another $.75 increase is planned for next year. So between now and then, anyone commuting to NYC for work is asked to come up with almost $400 a year on the increases alone.

1) Get to like silver more.
2) Aren't you married? How did you get extra money?
Anyone ever try negotiating with an auto insurance adjuster on the value of a totaled car?
This agent is short changing me by at least 1k. I totaled a '92 3000GT VR-4 with 55,600 miles. The car was bought for 9k with ~48k miles on it 2 years ago, and within the next few months had roughly 2k worth of maintenance done to it. Including the 60k mile service, fixing a dented oil pain (this can lead to fuel starvation and the engine dying), and replacing a faulty knock sensor. If I had wanted to sell it before the crash, I would have listed it at 10.5-11k and not have settled below 9500. That is the value of this car, having owned 3 of them in my life, I know what they go for and what the market is. Especially since it's 20 years old now and qualifies as a classic. And she's trying to only give me 7700. No matter how much facts I suggest to her (listing prices of the same model cars for sale in the area, how it's a late production '92 built with a stronger transmission that makes it more valuable to people in the market for these cars, etc) she just keeps saying she "cant" adjust the value. Which is bull.
Edit - According to KBB the value is between 8200 and 8800. And according to NADA Guide - Low Retail is $5250, Average is $12150, and High is $17800.
Can anyone offer advice in this scenario?

not married. living with the gf. dont want to get married since its an outdated institution, IMO, and completely pointless as I'm not religious (nor is she). she still wants to, but only because disney filled her head with crap since she was 2.

Not sure if I have advice, but I've seen people go through this. It's common with insurance. I've always wondered if my car gets totaled what value do they give me? Trade in? Private party? I really hope not to find out. How did you total it? I'm pretty sure they don't take into account the maintenance you've done to it. Either way sorry to hear it.
