I watch pretty much whatever looks good when I'm flippin through the channels. Mostly the outdoor channel, and my brother always has it on music videos for some stupid reason that I can't figure out, or some type of John Wayne movie, or anything having to deal with a war-type setting.

Well hopefully you get it sold...having people ask about it then never do anything more is frustrating. A guy called me asking about my track back when I had my parts, he said he got off work in a half hour and he'd call and get directions and come get it, never heard anything more from the guy. Lots of people emailed me about stuff, and nobody bought anything. One guy called me asking about my rear suspension, skis, and bumpers and he actually came and got those...he went fishing at his brother's lake house and on his way home he stopped and got the stuff...got $120 from him. Then I got a few more emails, couple calls, nothing. We had a rummage sale at my house and we put in the ad that we had Indy parts, and a couple people came and one person asked how much for the belt that goes under the snowmobile...I told them $50 and they walked away. One guy came and asked about my hood so I brought it up for him to see, he got my cell number, came back about a week later for the track and hood, hood didn't fit in his car but he gave me $100 for that, then when he came back for the hood he bought everything else I had for $100 more, so $320 total, which wasn't bad, but I had to wait like 2 months before anything sold and it gets annoying as he!!.

I've had a ton of people do the first email and then never hear from them again. Although, I can't say I'm completely innocent of not doing the exact same thing to a few people myself.

I talked to a guy about a month ago about an Indy Trail, but I'm not gonna have the money to get it now, so I found the ad again and called and told him it wasn't gonna work out because I absolutely HATE it when people do that to me.

I think it's pretty awesome that there's a Hooter's in the mall of america. My cousin and I were gonna go there but my other cousin and her friend freaked out on us so we didn't.

I was gonna buy a boat motor from a guy and negotiated him down to $130. Then couldn't come up with the funds so told him I couldn't get it right now. Now a month later I told him I'd give him $100 and he said yea...... Still need to email him back. Dick move,....I know.
