the DVD "Who killed the Electric Car"? I rented it today and it was about an hour and a half documentary about electric cars (mostly the GM EV1) and the story behind all of it in the 90's. I found it to be really interesting and made me realize that the Tesla Motors car isn't really "new" technology. I recommend everyone either rent or buy it as it was a good watch IMO.

the reason I hate credit is I was 19 and made 8 bucks an hour and got a $8000 card. How in the hell can that happen. Im much wiser now. And I know how the game works. cc companys are the devil this is true. But ill tell you this I worked my ass off paid for college without taking a loan and no help from mom and dad. the only thing I will ever take a loan out for is a house and a car getting a evo x next year

I'm about 1.5k in the hole right now not including bills that are just one month overdue. Sucks, at 8.50 an hour, but theres no complaining about it, we did it to ourselves.
Just keep workin and hoping nothing tragic happens that screws you over even more.
