Must be that time of year, we just got a new rim for the Mazda, (the rim
was totally killed). The dealer wanted $639 for a replacement. HOLY MOTHER
OF GOD is right. Needless to say, we didn't go that route. So I have a
nice (bent) hose reel now.
And today's question for the daughter?
"What was the skunk doing when you hit it?". Yipes, I have to drive the
Cabby out for a prescheduled alignment today, then take a bath I guess.
(Poor alignment guys are gonna love that eh?)
That's two, I hope the third isn't Bambi. I get the "coon car" back soon,
in the meantime I'm beating a brand new Chevy Cobalt rental, NO idea how
it's getting so dirty. Hehe....
