Trueblood Fangover Day 1

The finale was definitely epic.  I knew they wouldn't kill Eric off, but I was still thrilled as I am hardcore Team Eric.  Russell finally meeting the true death also made me ecstatic, especially since it meant that Eric finally got to carry out his long awaited vengeance.  I am slightly confused with the whole Morella having four babies and leaving them with Andy.  Are they going to grow up to be like Sookie and Hunter?  Jason has absolutely lost his marbles.  I don't know why he can't just pick a team and stay with it.  He keeps going back and forth between wanting to kill all vampires and being an ally to them.  I was so excited when Bill "died", though I was hoping it was for good.  He has been a huge lunatic for pretty much the entire season.  This Lilith stuff is fairly odd, especially since none of this happened in the books.    Speaking of the books, where is Quinn?  I was hoping he would be introduced into the series by now.  Then again, we haven't really been following the books much here lately.  I think everyone will agree with me that the season left me hanging and as always I can't wait to get more next season.

Volkswagen Diesel Oil Changes

If you own a TDI from Volkswagen, you should definitely do the oil change yourself and save some bucks.  At Bommarito, the oil change and tire rotation for every 10,000 miles is $100 before tax.  Currently, only dealers have the Castrol SLX 5w-30 LL03 that is necessary for the TDI's, however the oil is only about $9 per liter.  If you get 5 that's only about $45.  Add in an oil filter for about $10 and you're saving almost 40%.  I would also suggest doing the 40k mile check up yourself as well considering it is $600 without tax.  It mostly consists of changing the oil, putting in new oil, air and engine filters, putting in some diesel injector conditioners, and a tire rotation.
