A 1988 Honda Civic hatchback I was considering buying as a 2nd car. It's one of my favourite models and generations. I didn't buy it, but the following year, I bought my second favourite car and generation-a 1986 Honda Accord sedan. I miss it (even though the car I own (and owned then) was so much newer than either of these)
(August 15, 2013) On this 3 brewery evening, I visited Jack's Abby (2 growlers Hoponius), Idle Hands (a growler of Pandora Belgian Pale Ale), and Night Shift, who brew very creatively, but have no particular beer I can more than taste.
That said, this is a fine beer destination in the Boston area, as Idle Hands and Night Shift (both nanos) are side by side (in an industrial park) and very receptive to tours and sampling. Both are Belgian-bent.

"On August 22, 1886, the corner stone was laid by Archbishop Cleary. On December 17, 1904, this church which was similar in design and architecture to the present St. Michael's Church, burned to the ground. There was little or no insurance carried and financing the building of a new structure seemed impossible. But, built on the faith of willing parishioners, a new St. Michael's rose out of the ashes within a year. This new beautiful church was built under the guidance of a remarkable man, Father Twomey. Today, Father Twomey rests under the tower of the church he helped to erect. The present Church of St. Michael's the Archangel was opened on October 15, 1905."

Sometimes I really need to take my own advice...read the damn manual!
When I got this car it had a super sloppy shift linkage because all the rubber bushings were almost totally disintegrated (maybe made out of the same stuff as bumper fillers?), a common problem on the big front wheel drive cars. So I procured the bushings and installed, and it was about 80% better. Definitely drivable but not perfect. If you came out of park too fast into drive, it'd sometimes catch third gear, and getting into drive still took some fiddling. A few months ago I investigated further, and found this bolt that looked like it had something to do with the linkage.
So, I did what you do when something's too loose, tighten the #@*$ out of it! But that didn't work, if anything it exacerbated the situation so I quit. Feeling a little industrious, I cracked open the book and lo and behold there is a method to adjusting this thing!
And they were right. Loosen the bolt, pull the rod that goes to the trans out of the holder, put the trans and the column in neutral, feed the rod back through the holder. Then, while holding up on the column linkage to make sure it stays in the "top" of neutral, thread the bolt in. Not sure why they said "finger tighten", I'm a meat fist and there was no way I was moving that bolt with anything less than a ratchet. I used a torque wrench set to approx 27ft/lbs. This would have went a lot smoother if I was left handed, but it can be done. The car shifts into gear like new now, and its impossible to "slide" into 3rd when going for drive. You would think that torque doesn't really matter for something like this, but believe me it does! Too tight and it is sloppy/hard to get into low ranges. Too loose and it won't go into park.
Happy accident, on occasion when coming to a stop this car would downshift from 3-2 HARD. Sporadic, and I ran through the checks I could do in the FSM. Nothing made it any less random. With the linkage dead on no, it downshifts imperceptibly all the time. No mention of a misadjusted shift linkage as a cause for this problem, but if your 325-4L is occasionally acting funny, the linkage might hold more answers than you think.

Tilt shift shots produced by holding a M42 lens focused to infinity loosely in front of an eos350d, then tilting until the desired object is in focus. Thanks to Tommy Oshima for the tip! :) the results are a bit hit and miss but looks pretty cool when you get it right!

Sitting in the cheap seats has its advantages. A shot i took at an England friendly, and my first attempt at a post production tilt-shift effect.
