    first thing first jox you are a deadman.

    My first car was a 1979 Datsun 210 I got from my grandfather in 1994.
    Here's the specs:
    Bright yellow
    4 door
    4 speed
    Like driving a go-cart.
    ***The Real Specs**
    shrunken head hanging from rear view mirror
    skateboard company stickers all over back window
    ceramic piranah on dashboard
    McDonalds playground balls velcroed in the flat area below the rear window
    4X4 keyhole decals
    A trunk filled with skateboards and a roller racer
    Backseat filled with Big Brother skateboard mags.
    Tape Deck blasting Beastie Boys, Rage, Rancid, or who knows what else.

    The best part:
    The brakes were quite literally the type that only work as well as you can press the pedal down.
    This allowed me to really stomp on them and make the nose of the car slam to the ground like it had hydraulics, hopping all around town.
    My record was 26 nose hops descending from 50mph to zero slightly downhill in a very short distance.

    I miss that car so much...

    As for the band, they're awesome, been into them since I first heard of them early this year.
