    i spoke to the ladies at the leasing office... and now we officially have permission to use the top level for installs :D... but we gotta make sure that everyone behaves in and around my neighborhood (no revving, no setting off car alarms, no speeding, etc.)... ive invited them to come up, hang out and grab some food...

    on the same day the apartment complex is organising a charity car wash... $10 for a wash and the proceeds go to helping the victims of katrina... so if ur car is dirty and u need it washed u can get it done here... its for a good cause :)

    i think we're covered in terms of food... we have a bunch of soda but no ice or cups... the more ice that could be brought the better...

    We need charcoal...and maybe a charcoal grill. It would be sorta nice to have maybe two of them if we need to feed everyone at once. But I'm gonna try to get ours over to his place...not sure if we can do it with the rx8 lol.
