Wow you didn't know about Adric's stroked Camaro?! You really have been gone awhile.

Lets see, my Camaro is now cammed and geared. I only have five work days left at Panera as I quit. I had my new job put it in writing to give me off for CSF so I'll be there. I'm already signed up and everything so we'll finally get to meet in person.

My wife is in her final semester for school so she will be an accountant in a month in a half or so and then this summer she'll be getting her CPA. Then I can finish up my engineering degree and then get my masters.

I think that's about it.

How do you like Dediwebhost.com? I'm currently looking into moving to a dedicated server but I really don't know where to go.

Congrats on the 167, Jim! I remember when MiFbody first hit 150, I was freaking stoked. We just crested over 700 earlier this year. I made deals with local fbody clubs to have their own sub-forum on MiFbody to link to from their site. That helped my site out HUGE, because then all their members registered on MiFbody to converse in their forum, and of course they went into the other forums also. I made a deal with another club, but alas no one has registered from there yet?

Damn, Chad, I bet the cam sounds good. What did you go with? And that's FREAKING awesome that you'll be at CSF! My girlfriend is one of the judges this year, so alas my car will not be judged. CSF extended an invitation out to MiFbody's daughter club, Michigan Firebird Club, to judge the show instead of Corvette club. It'll be pretty cool this year.

Dediwebhost.com is good, when I put the purchase in, the site was all but dead from HostGator just randomly shutting it down and being dicks. They had my server up and running for me to login within 6 hours. I was really impressed. Since then, I haven't really dealt with them other than to pay the bill. Uptime is currently 115 days and counting. It's nice having a server that can handle the load. Highest load I've seen so far was 20%.

So are you driving your car meiss?

Maybe judging will actually go good this year... I guess since theyre vette owners, thats why they were so .... They probably only drive their cars like 2 weeks out of the year.

Is there someway we can talk? I really don't know what I really need in a dedicated server. My current host tells me I need these huge ones that'll cost me an arm and a leg but I really don't think I'll need it. I just want something that can handle the load and do it quickly.

In all honesty -- I don't know what to tell you on that. I just grabbed what seemed to be sufficient. I'd recommend going onto webhostingtalk.com and see what they tell ya. They were a HUGE help for me.
