It is horrible what the Japanese government is condoning their fishermen; killing thoudsands of intelligent dolphins each year. These people are insensitive and have no respect to these adorable living creatures.

Please visit Sea Shepherd and read more about the senseless killing by the Japanese murdurous thugs and it's government.

I mentioned to my co-worker that I want to setup a dual LCD side by side for my PC but the 19" LCDs are so expensive. He mentioned slickdeals.net sometime post deals on Dell's UltraSharp LCDs. Bam!!! There it was. Dell had two thoudsand 20" UltraSharp wide screen on sale at $440.00 each from roughly $650.00. These monitors are sharp and quality is top notch. I snatched up two and got the setup I'd always wanted. They showed up right on my birthday too.

My wait was finally over when I found out the black market phone shops got the Sony Ericsson K750i mobile phone in stock. Although I had one month left on my Cingular contract, I switched over to T-mobile anyway to get this phone for free and keep my number. I'm telling you, this phone kicks ass.

It has a 2MP digital camera, an awesome MP3 player, accepts up to 1GB memory stick duo pro, bluetooth, infrared, tri-band and many features. I had to retire my SE K700i.

I'm beyond upset after wasting $9.50 and over two hours of my life on this movie. The special FX is cooler than I expected but the story telling was horrible. Why does Hollywood always pick a disfunctional family to talk about? This movie should have gone straight to video. I will never pay to watch another Spielberg movie again except The Transformers.

This is my first post! I spent a few weeks looking for a blog software that is easy to install but it has to be on .net and IIS6. After installing and trying out over ten scripts, I went with Dasblog. It is highly configurable and easy to maintain. It supports Email to Weblog as well. Now I could post my blog entry from my mobile phone. Sweet!!!

The door sills are custom designed by me for Porsche Boxster all year model. Made from 0.6" thick manufacturer grain stainless and 29" long. It is adhered with 3M double sided tape. Now comes with laser engraved 150 point font 986 ensignia. You could order them through my www.boxsey.com Boxster site.
**This instruction is only for the door sills I designed.**

Tools:
Measuring tape
Masking tape
Bottle of Windex
Wash rag
Pair of Scissors

01. Start on either side of the car. This shows the driver's side. Remove dirt and dust from entire sill surface.

02. Cut a piece of tape that is 15.25 inches long. Apply one end of the tape right underneath the door latch. Do not stretch the tape as you slowly press it down towards the sill (keep tape straight). Where the other end of the tape ends is the starting point of the door sill.

03. Remove the white plastic cover of the door sill and place it on the sill where the end of the tape ended (do not peel double sided tape yet). Seat the door sill in flush so you have an idea of what it looks like.

04. Now turn the door sill over and peel off all the double sided tape paper.

05. Turn the door sill back over and gently place it on the sill like step #3. Do not put pressure on door sill until it's properly lined up. Both ends of the door sill should be flushed with sill at the curve.

06. The entire surface of the sill is not always flat. **important** make sure that the door sill is properly seated and flush before applying pressure to it. Apply pressure by pressing down on the door sill so the double sided tape can make contact with the surface of the sill. Once completed, clean the door sill of finger prints with Windex or any cleaning agent. Repeat the entire process for the opposite side.
