Mini Mania Open House and Lawn Party
by Jerry (Siddhartha) Bradbury
What can transform a peaceful sylvan lawn in Gold Country into a carnival overnight? The annual Mini Mania Open House and Lawn Party of course! Those who were there got to see first hand all the eye candy, but for those who were not, the Mini's ranged from an electric Moke to a VTEC powered Classic, to Randy Steven's tricked out CVT to Robert Holt’s Purple Haze convertible to three full on Mini race cars: my sprint car, Jacques Andres' enduro car and Eric and Colin Herricks's rally car, and many in between.

Race Report -USTCC

Infineon Raceway, April 11, 2008.
by Jerry (Siddhartha) Bradbury
My Mini has a new setup for this race. Speed parts from my sponsor Mini Mania have been added by my sponsor Bay Bridge Motors and USTCC sponsor Nitto has provided four brand new NT 01 tires. This will be my first official race with the US Touring Car Championship and I look forward to hitting the grid with more horsepower and quicker lap times.

MINI Clubman Review

Published: 21st April 2008
The new MINI was launched in 2001, to much acclaim. Although bigger than the original Mini, what it lacked in rear legroom, it made up for in unusual styling and a vast array of personalisation elements, much loved by a local estate agent.

The MINI Clubman has the same raft of options but its main benefit is the extra length, which should make rear passengers happier.

I thought of doing that after leaving the military, joining the border patrol. But the pay is not that great, and you could be sent down to some rat hole, dust bowl on the border.  Join the LAPD, great pay and benefits, your educational past is a major plus, plus being a Spanish speaking Hispanic. Give me a call when your ready.  You can then become an auto theft investigator, and impound mini all day, if you like.

cbp officer  is a good choice  lots of over time.... but application for cbp officer is close right now. I heard uncle sam is putting more $ for 08-09 (homeland security budget) and cutting the $ from education... lamini-import specialist is still open, long beach area with better pay!

After the elections in November (regardless of who gets elected) they are going to install turnstyles at the border anyway.  None of the candidates care about border security anymore.

Are you trying to follow me out of the profession? My advice: get yourself a suga' mama like I did.

Seriously, all of the cuts will surely make next year even more hellish. I can only imagine how big class sizes will get. I was thinking of returning for 08-09, but I think I'll sit out another year, myself. That's not to say if I would want to return that any district would have me...
