The Fondest Memories of the 4th Generation Civic

It was on display at the Indy.

Saw it and poof, was instantly awash with memories.

Maybe you are now too… remember these? Everyone and their dog had one, ahh remember discovering “the open road”… that crowd that customized this car had this great energy… remember the firsts…

Remember when 92 hp made us so happy.

 

 

Hi From a Clean Computing Enviroment

One of my top 3 favourite feelings.

Wiped both my laptop and phone today. Well actually, my phone was so screwed it had to be replaced, wouldn’t even connect to the Genius Bar computer. It’s been a tumultuous few weeks (more on my stalking problem here).

The hard, hyper-focused stuff is done, now I’m on a patio rebuilding my phone. I should do this process on camera, share my methods.

Because not just from the security side, but like, after you wipe them, your phone and computer will run infinitely better. You don’t need a new one, you need to take better care of the one you have. It’s like never putting oil in a car, then complaining it drives poorly.

Encouraging you to change your passwords this weekend, the feeling after is great.

Have a good one TTY Monday.

Spent the Afternoon with Honda at the Track

Honda invited my blog to Mosport today, for their #TameTheTrack event in celebration of this weekend’s Indy race. Easily one of the best events I’ve attended.

First, I drove an open-wheel Formula F car.

Then a gokart race. I won my heat, and had the fastest lap time of the whole day.

Then, my first track time. A Civic Si around the development track for 45 minutes!

I have video, a ton of photos, and next week’s column is about mind control.

Because I’d put my concentration skills up against anyone’s, but by the end of that 45 I was losing it. And that these racers can focus intensely for 2 hours seems superhuman to me.

Thank you Honda! And how appropriate it was you to give me my first track time.

Holy Crap I Killed Today

I have so much to tell you, not trying to be mysterious, but you know know how jinxy I am.

Finalized a huge life changing decision today, am in stage 4 of sleep deprivation and here’s to your weekend. I’ll leave you with a photo of the aforementioned moment, I’m off to celebrate huge.
