scirocco vs.suburban(ugly and profane rant)

[CLaYpOoLME@aol.com]

hey 

today i said goodbye to a very good friend of mine.  
my car is dead.  just as it reads...a 125 lb woman in a 98 burb decided to 
mindlessly plow through my 87 roc.  i was on my way back from getting a $10 
dollar-oil-change(how exiting) and about three streets from the shell station 
i went to make a left at a three way intersection. i stopped at the stop sign 
and looked to make a left. snow banks on both sides of the road required me 
to inch out into the lane a bit so as to get a good look before proceeding. 
no cars were coming from either direction or so it seemed. i take my second 
look to the left and see the burb comin towards me to the far RIGHT of the 
lane.
  realizing that i am going to get hit if she doesn't move over i get a 
little nervous. my car was in 1st at this time not reverse and there was 
another car coming behind me....i waited until the last possible second for 
her to move over or slow down...and of course she didn't. almost seemed as if 
she didn't even hit her brakes.  i nailed it so as to avoid her killing me.  
burb hit my left rear over the wheel well and sent me spinning 2 times full 
circle.
car_  is - fucked. 
 the side quarter is halfway in my trunk. another five inches and not only my 
face would have looked like hamburger meat.  i get out of my car and walk 
over to her..asking her if she is alright. airbag deployed...she has a burn 
on her arm. she starts to yell at me...i curse her out (ridiculous?).. within 
60 seconds neighbors, cops, ambulance, hospital.  I didn't get a chance to 
look at her car..me on the other hand.....100+ stiches in my 
forehead,eyebrows and left ear .dr was pulling glass out of my forehead for 
an hour.snapped my nose back into place....makes the same noise you hear in 
the movies and hurts about 10 tims more than you think it does..no other 
apparent injury(well see).  my car is in the driveway  good side out ( guess 
the wrecker felt bad for me). haven't talked to the cops...no summonses issued

everything in the car is in good shape......front and rear euro bumpers still 
near perfect(unaffected).  euroheadlights fine,  seats near-perfect, 15" 
bbs-ish wheels with new p7000 tires(the one affected seems straight but 
everything around it and the axle are taco belled). tons of other shit.  it 
is going to have to be stripped after i figure out this mess and i don't 
wanna even think about what im gonna do for at least a week. i look and feel 
like shit and im going into hibernation for a bit. sorry for the rant but im 
really pissed off right now and felt the need to vent.


good night 
(and thank god for tyl cod 3)
