Hi everyone,
Just wanted to let you know that the screening times for "Pushin' Up Daisies" have been scheduled. The location is going to be at the Landmark Midtown Art Cinema. Screening times, venue address, and contact info are below. I have to admit we have about the best screening times we could have asked for. We're very lucky to have these spots. As far as I know, the films and festival schedule have not yet been announced on the festival website, so tickets to individual screenings are not yet on sale. Keep an eye out. Hope you can make it.

Also, if you go to our website (www.iamnotazombie.com), there is a link where you can join us on FaceBook and help us start spreading the word. We are continuing to make updates to the website as we go along. We would like to ask that if any of you have any really great photos from the production, we would love for you to post them on FaceBook. We're trying to collect as many good shots as we can.

Thanks everyone! Here's the info:

Friday, April 16 at 7:30 PM
Saturday, April 17 at 11:45 PM

Landmark Midtown Art Cinema
931 Monroe Drive Northeast
Atlanta, GA 30308

Hey Charlie, or anyone else familiar with car suspension:

What would cause one corner of a car to become 3/4" lower than the rest?
The suspension place that I brought the WRX to said that they saw no evidence of broken/damaged springs, joints, or shocks. But they did verify that the rear right is 3/4" lower than the rest, which explains the car's tendency to pull to the right.

I would measure the coil springs left to right. You may have one that is sagging.

Also checking the strut off the spring you may find the strut is bad.

I'll try to check that, thanks!

Do you mean to check the width of the spring and compare it to the others?

I may have to bring it in to a shop to have them check the strut though.

I would think Charlie was talking about length.I would compare length from side to side as the springs may be different lengths,diameters and spring rates,from front to rear.

Gotcha.

I am also going to check the upper mount to make sure something isn't giving there.}

If one corner drops, the opposite corner (diagonally) should indicate a similar rise. Think of a 4x8 piece of plywood. Has car been damaged or tweaked ? WRX Subbie ? Have you been playing in the rough country ? WRX comes from the rally world.

Bent,
I have not checked the opposite corner by measuring, but using the "look at it" method, it appears to be normal (as compared to the right front)

No damage, no tweeks. I just crossed 100K miles, and I have put all but a handfull on the car myself.

No rough stuff for several years, and this sag has been recent (within the last several months).

I used to do some auto-crossing, but haven't done that in about 4 years.

WRX comes from the rally world.
That is what started my obsession with the WRX way back in the late 90's. I could not wait until they released the WRX in the states. And as soon as I could afford one, I picked this one up.}

Everyone cross your fingers and toes. So far Saturday shows 59 degrees and partly cloudy in Suches. We may at least get one day of riding in.

Good question. Is TWO going to be open? Right now I plan to head up early Saturday morning and stay for the day. It's supposed to rain Friday and Sunday, so I don't feel campy.

I have a new battery arriving Thursday, so I should be able to start the Ulysses for a change. I figure that will help the riding immensely. I got a DEKA (made in the USA!) ETX14 for $65 shipped from tristatebattery.com. Beats the heck out of the stealership's $100 + tax.

Charley .. sometimes ( very rarely ) it's good when people stop by to borrow things.

If it's not raining Friday afternoon I'll be up then and out Sunday.

So who is coming up when?

I am thinking of leaving at just before dawn, hanging at T.W.O. till we get a crowd and heading out.

Wont be wearing leather, only jeans and such. Looking to do some exploring not railing.

I'll be headed up as soon as I can drag myself out of bed in the morning. Probably leave the house no later than 8AM. If I can get up earlier, I'll head up earlier.

Exploring sounds good to me.
