Re: Just got Hit 15 min. ago

Heh... I had something like that happen to me once and I got $150 for it,
cash, no questions, no claims, and I was happy because it was a POS car
(unlike yours, I'm sure), so I just left the dent in (I was hit from the
side, again unlike you) and let it pay for
gas for my next roadtrip : )
	I hope you have the best of luck getting it fixed quickly and
easily and free.
	later!
