That is something I would want to learn how to do but I feel like the first time it should get done by someone who knows what they're doing. Gonna start reading up on tuning basics anyway.

A summer camp that hasn't even started yet. Me and another co worker, mrs. Carla, have been getting screwed for the past 2 years. And she (my boss, Angie) said something about changing the hours, but she never did. And Angie has me working until 6 all next week. Which isn't gonna work out with Express because there's no point in coming in for 2 and 1/2 hours to work. I'm treated better at Express and I get paid more too

Still raining here in Houston, does that count as a daily struggle?

That is ridiculous and it counts as a daily struggle. Did you take any pictures of anything during the storms?

Yeah that's what I'm gathering from reading some how to things so far. Probably one of those things where once you have the software its much easier to understand what to do. How much did you spend on the stuff neceasary to run HPTuners?
