Thanks for taking the time. But I gotta say, with your response, I've now gotten 4 separate expert opinions, and the only thing that anyone agrees on is that the dash gouging is unacceptable.
At this point, it's done with...I've paid, I've gotten everything fixed that seemed to need to be fixed, and we're working on the dash issue.
This car has been dealership-maintained for its entire life, because most of its life, it was technically owned by my parents so they made all the maintenance decisions.
Now that I own it, I took it to the place where I was supposed to NOT get fucked...the dealership where one of CJ's really close friends works.
So whatever. If I got fucked, so be it. Nothing I can do now.
And for next time I need something...maybe I'll look around a bit more.
Oh, trust me, after I got over the initial shock of hearing the new flight time, I checked and my previous (cancelled) flight was the last flight out to my destination.
So if I hadn't been such a lazy bastard and had scheduled an earlier flight for today, I would've been in the air before the snowstorm hit and all would have been ok.
Still no guarantee THIS flight will leave out, but I will be in the airport then and will figure SOMETHING out. This snowstorm was supposed to hit tonight so who the hell knows. I just know I have four more days off and I'm going out of town, dammit.
There is a very specific, and important, difference between a person who is intelligent and a person who is knowledgeable. It will serve you well in life if you can learn to recognize this difference.
Agreed. And that's just fucking sad. I thought SG was suppose to be about STRONG women, not these waiffy posers that show bewb and vay jay jay to everybody cuz Daddy didn't hug them enough when they were children. Besides, I think most of them would just move to make amateur porn videos in the near future.
Looks like I am getting ready to head off and invest in a new truck Well, new to me.
This is honestly my favorite thing in the whole world, the hunt looking for a car that fits both myself, my price range and my practical needs. Then you get the fun of picking up a new toy.
He died at age 69 of some pretty everyday shit and I am currently refusing to accept it.
I am not pleased at the idea of having to accept not only the death, but the mundane death, of someone who was such an iconic figure in my life. Evel Knievel was always, for me, the definition of larger then life. While... Read More
I may have exaggerated by calling it a "stack" of cash... it was only a few bills and I really wanted the buy-two-get-one camel lights I saw in the window.
Why must a be saddled with a great job that I love but at a company with a completely incompetent owner? 80% of the stress in my life could be eliminated with one simple change in the leadership here.
*sigh* Truly not sure how much longer this job will last, the chances of the company being run into the ground are high. I really hope... Read More
Busy, busy busy... Work, side projects and a new found girlfriend have had me busy but happy.
Today, however was a bump on the idle seas of my happiness because people at work just have to play bullshit little political games. Now in itself this does not piss me off, it is pretty much part of any job that involves more then 3 people. What... Read More
However that is a story for another day because I am just checking work e-mails and killing time till the sales guy comes to take me to dinner ( I hope he doesn't expect me to put out).
On an interestign side note I am staying in a BRAND new hotel room. I will be the first person to... Read More

Never before did I think I of all people would spend a day at work making a spread sheet... and then take it home to finish.
I feel dirty.
HUGE consultant meeting for me tomorrow at noon, I am excited, nervous and full of dread all at once. Not a common way for me to feel about any work situation. It is not often I... Read More
i'm glad you're digging the sound. let's talk before the CD exchange, you can let me know if you managed to track anything down - i can then supplement it a bit with some of the stuff i have if you're interested.
that Scott Ian clip is fucking great. i'm going to have to spread that around a bit more.
I can think of, off the top of my head, at least 3,067 better ways to start your day besides wrecking your truck.
Oh well, at least it still drives; but it's ugly as fuck now. I mean not that it was any sort of beauty queen before but... well who wants a smashed truck?
Just to add to my joy with the situation I... Read More
Fucking hell, that's the shittiest damn week I've heard in a long time. Are you coming to the event on the 20th? I'll buy you a few drinks if you're done with that silly detox stuff.
