M: "Um...okay, I'm not doing anything, I have everything nicely tucked away in one spot, I'm not taking up two spots."
H: "Yea but occasionally we get reports, saying someone is changing the oil or something."
M: "Well I'm not changing the oil or dropping anything."
H: "I just wanted to let you know, someone might complain."
M: "Well that's pretty sad, this is a garage, people are bound to open their hood and check things out from time to time."
H: "Yea, okay...well good luck."

Seriously, GFY. They know damn well how patient I have been with some of their shit, why do you want to piss off a good, honest resident?

Damn. Well, good luck

I'm going to be honest, I have tried several different unicorn masks in the past. I have about 6 masks from various retailers around the internet and I've gotta say, this is the right one for me. When I put it on, I feel the rush of pretending I am a real-life unicorn! It is so realistically styled that there's a connection I feel deep inside when I put it on.

As mentioned in other reviews, the mask is very durable. The latex holds up well against brush and other woodland undergrowth. However, I found that when I tried to spear some pineapple from a tree or defend myself from approaching predators, the rubbery material of the horn just didn't hold up as well as I needed it to. More times than I'd like to admit, I had to gallop away from an attacking bear instead of standing proud and defending my honor like an actual unicorn. The solution I came up with was to simply reinforce the hollow inside of the horn with steel rods welded in a cylindrical shape. I just gorilla glued the metal into place (making sure a longer, pointed rod stuck out of the end so that I can pierce the hearts of my enemies) and voila!

Now I have a sweet unicorn mask that lets me fulfill all of my unicornical fantasies. You will not be disappointed in this mask.

...I am at a loss of words.

I started looking for power rangers also. Gundam helmets are hard to find...I'm not sure if it's worth the cost of getting one. I want a stormtrooper one too or even a deadmau5 head would do fine with the top down in the miata.

+1 with Ryan about finiding heat resistant paint. I'm sure you can find some at your local automotive store. Hell, I'm sure WalMart might even have some.

As for sealant, I'm sure they have some sort of 'clearcoat' sealant to protect it.

Couldn't sleep so upon browsing YouTube and Facebook, I stumbled across Wongfu's newest video, The Last. For those that aren't familiar with Wongfu, they are a a group of friends from UCSD that produce some of the best videos on YouTube -- the relationship ones are the best and are usually on point

Mac, you should definitely check them out!

No, but I'm looking ahead towards the future when deciding the mods I plan to do to my car. A little foresight won't hurt.
