I don't know if anyone has noticed but I usually get on at work :\ This has become much more difficult with my new job, I am a lot busier than I used to be!

Did everyone have a good weekend? It got COLD here

Did you have PRK or LASIK?

pbdm4k · 11-10-2008, 03:53 PM

I had bladeless Lasik.

I'm a happy man. But my wallet isn't happy.

Seems kind of odd to me, that over the summer months this board was rockin', and now that we've hit fall/winter months it's died down a LOT! You'd think it would be the opposite, ya know?

LASIK is awesome! I had it done a few years ago, the best 2K I ever spent! Not to mention, I also got a lifetime guarantee with it, as we get older our eyes change, so as long as I am alive and as my eyes change, I will get free updates.

Actually, have some glare issues at night now, but still glad I did it.

There are a couple that you guy's use, that I am not sure of, but that one seems to be used the most often. Maybe I need Zpost Thread 101?

Well allllllllrighty then! LOL Thx for the list! A lot of them I knew, and some I think belong in Martha Stewart's kitchen threads.

ATX750i · 11-10-2008, 09:24 PM

Haha, Lol. Did a simple google search and that was one of the results. Atleast it puts more meaning and something useful in this thread.

BimmerZ408 · 11-10-2008, 09:40 PM

Well thank you.

So how are you - anything new?

ATX750i · 11-10-2008, 09:43 PM

Not much new. Just the day to day same old stuff. How about you?

BimmerZ408 · 11-10-2008, 09:48 PM

Ditto - nothing new, or exciting here. *blah* Seriously though, what has happened around here, so dead lately - did you scare 'em all off?

ATX750i · 11-10-2008, 09:51 PM

I didnt, I think everyone left cause our awesome-ness left for a while.

BimmerZ408 · 11-10-2008, 09:54 PM

Well, maybe as Rosie said - some peeps got a life? Who knows.

I'd guess that sooner or later they'll miss us & come back!

ATX750i · 11-10-2008, 10:01 PM

BimmerZ408 · 11-10-2008, 10:05 PM

Hey, do you use a battery tender? Or are you a daily driver? I ask because, I bought one to store my car for the winter, and it's STILL charging after nearly 5 days! I don't think this is normal, as I didn't have a total dead battery. I think I need to take it back to BMW & exchange for another one.

ATX750i · 11-10-2008, 10:25 PM

DD FTW!

BimmerZ408 · 11-10-2008, 10:29 PM

Ahh ok NM, thx AW.
