Don't tell me you got a life too now Adam?

Nope - cracked radiator. Uggg. I'm at the service center now. Fun, fun. I decided on the way to work yesterday to not pass a car (I actually talked myself into being patient and not blowing past them just in time to take an offramp). Bad idea. They drove over a board that I then ran over and kicked up into my radiator. I didn't notice the problem until the drive home when my engine temperature was increasing...then decreasing...then increasing. I still had coolant left, but it was quite low this morning. The mechanic found the problem and I'm waiting on the new radiator to get installed.

I'm now paying a $600 fine for not being a jackhole. Karma is a strange mistress.

No good deed ever goes unpunished.

Adam you seem to be having crack issues.

First the TV screen is cracked. (While you were a nice guy.)

Radiator is cracked. (While you were being a nice driver.)

Now maybe if you are not a nice guy you will get the right kind of crack (and I'm not talking about the rock.)

O'Doyle Rules!

Going to Buffalo Wild Wings for lunch...pray for my diet!

Naked tenders and a salad. 7 lg beers. I'd say 13, but it is lunch after all.

You think he'll need a plumber? I guess things do happen in threes...

Knock on wood of course...

Sorry to hear that, man. When I noticed an almost 24 hour posting drought, I almost called to see if you were still alive.

I just had a radiator replaced a few months ago, so I share your pain.

I guess things do happen in threes...

Not with us. With our middle brother? Maybe in college. But not with us.

TV deliverys

So, who has had their new TV delivered and who is still waiting? I've gotten it all confused in the last few pages...

Middle brother? Where's he at? Alaska?
You guys are pretty scattered. My family is like that too.

Adam's next broken TV is on it's way.
I really think he should look into an extended warranty for his car .

I just got a tax bill for almost $600 for our car.
I'm not accustomed to that and certainly wasn't ready for that.

No kidding. Property tax on a car that the bank owns. This is where those big Arizona teaching and engineering dollars would really be appreciated.

New England is great. You got the regular mob, the Irish mob, the state government taxing you to death and believe it or not I just saw on the news where a local chiropractor was being strong armed by Blue Cross/Blue Shield. It's almost like living in Canada except up there it's all legal.

Forgive my surly mood. Usually I get to take it out on Harald but life is gooooood!

 

[mrjsw]

Middle brother? Where's he at?

The Windy City. He's the only one getting blown.

Ah, yes. I so much love NE car taxes.

 

[Adam]

I know fear that my personal life is colliding with my forum life.

I feel like George.

 

[Alex2507]

Boston is actually more windy and thanks for the PM about the problem with Adam.
I'll try to be more sensitive to it.

 

[Adam]

...and thanks for the PM about the problem with Adam.

Nice try. He can't PM.

 

[Alex2507]

Nice try. He can't PM.

Oh ... dang character requirements
