Paintless dent repair should be able to erase that ding. Still enough to piss somebody off, for sure. Sorry man.

something not good just happened to the Toronado and she left a trail of coolant coming into the driveway. Investigation pending daylight.

Good luck with her...I am hoping for a coolant hose (heater hose) rather than a cracked block or something major.

People are such asshats in public parking lots....

Today would have been my Dad's 90th birthday. I miss him.

Today my father is 72 and alive...I need to call him. THANKS!

My Lexus has a flat tire

As I was driving past the Lexus dealership the other day, it sounded like someone forgot to put motor oil in after an oil change. Very loud, very nasty noise came forth as the car pulled out of the lot...not good for the owner of that Lexus!

Had a nice dinner with Mom & Dad tonight- Mom still makes a killer scratch-baked apple pie!

Next $h!ass I see that carelessly catapults a goddamn shopping cart in the direction of whatever car I'm driving, I'm going to kill the f@#king bastard by stuffing my fist down his trachea.

Pics:

UGH, stuff like that really burns my ass. I've damn near jumped down some guy's throat because he missed the cart bin and nailed my car instead. I've never seen somebody get in a car and take off so fast.

My Jeep got a shopping cart ding the day I bought it....stopped at W-M to buy floor mats. Don't know if it was a careless shopper or the wind.

I'm really annoyed with people who don't respond when you answer their Craigslist ads.

It appears worse in person.

Would you know an average ballpark on how much it would cost to fix that?

was just a heater hose

Wish I could say that!

MMM...Apple is my fav....

About what I thought,....

I thought that by moving to the east coast I would be free from having to drive towards the east into the sun in the mornings. This turned out to not be the case.

Try working earlier in the day....

There's east coast, then there's EAST COAST. Any eastward driving from my place results in severe water damage after about 15 seconds/1500ft.

Unfortunately, I'm not a morning person, so I tend to be driving into the sun while going west. Bah!

My truck's blower fan resistor, just replaced under a factory TSB/recall a few months ago, is on the fritz again.

That sucks!

We're on an old version of Linux for this here website thingy with no direct upgrade path to the new version. So we'll be down overnight while Z moves us to a new server I'm building now.

Water on the knee, going to have to press my powers of self-healing extra hard to get rid of this.

That really sucks, dude...esp as hard as guys like you and I and Camino work with our bodies.

You will be in my thoughts....I've been thinking 59 Lincoln flower car and 57 Pontiac Star Chief thoughts all day...

Although personally I like the 55 Pontiac better, and would prefer a plain two door hardtop 1960 Lincoln.

Actually I think it was 57 that Lincoln Paced the 500...THAT is the vintage Lincoln I want...you KNOW my passion for RWD rag tops.

I'm really annoyed with people who don't respond when you answer their Craigslist ads.

Heh ... glad I'm not the only one to experience that phenomenon recently.

Can we just skip to mid December?

Do it!

How about Shenene?

Wife and I decided that, when we named our kids, none of the girls would have any name that ended in "esha". One-for-one so far.

How about Shenene?

She needs a job that doesn't entail dropping fries when she grows up...?

Anyway, back to my rants:

Venza drivers take the cake when it comes to clueless Toyota owners.

I performed a very beautiful (drunk) rendition of Your Love is my Drug on our anniversary this year, I figured it would be a meaningful, sweet name to suggest. Apparently not.

Suddenly, I'm relying on the very Sunfire that I've bitched about endlessly in the past.

How can you bitch, whine or moan about driving EXCITEMENT!!!!!!!!!?

Black Swan just came on and since I've never watched it from the beginning I don't know how much of this crap I have to sit through before the fake lesbian sex scene.

Most GM cars run poorly longer than most cars run at all. Car and Driver said it, and it is wildly true.

Sounds like EXCITEMENT...maybe you and Vipes can get together.

Anyone notice you can't clean a single damn pot without using a half cup of dish soap now?

Hmmm... I put pots in the dishwasher on the pot setting. That usually takes care of them. But the glass lids sometimes take two cycles to get clean.

Gas stations that don't have pay-at-the-pump, or do but have a sign that says 'please pay inside'....F that $h!.

Sharktopus is not yet available for instant streaming and Mega Shark vs. Giant octopus isn't quite cutting it right now.

I could only make it 7 days into No-Shave November. Now people will question my manhood.

Even worse, I have to go to Missouri on Friday.

Open Heart Surgery was postponed from today until Friday due to an emergency heart transplant. Someone asked if I was pissed about the change. My reply? "Pissed is knowing that Ch#$r%*et is still in business lying to people. Pissed is also having last weekend's plans for some, uh, "fun", prior to surgery canceled. Having my surgery postponed is a highly minor inconvenience."

*shrugs*

Not much I can do about it; besides, I can recover from the catheterization a bit more and do a few things, too.

From chat the other night.

<§carlet §wo...> taking intro to b&w photography this semester and resenting every minute of it

<balthazar> I took photography and did most of it in B&W, but as you'd expect, I like B&W.

<§carlet §wo...> i loathe printing in the darkroom

8:20 PM

<balthazar> it's cozy in there.

<§carlet §wo...> i find it the most expensive, wasteful, tedious, time consuming, frustrating, unrewarding, and unsatisfying thing i've done throughout all of school.

<balthazar> But... it's 'art'.

<§carlet §wo...> and i understand i need to gain an appreciation of all areas of find art. ok. i appreciated it after the first few weeks. now it's gone downhill and i'm speeding towards hating all photography for the rest of my life.

<§carlet §wo...> and i know i shouldn't complain about getting a good education when there are starving poor kids in africa, blah blah blah.

<§carlet §wo...> sorry to be a negative nancy, i need to get this $h! off my chest.

I'm glad we've labeled this the "Bitch, Moan, and Whine" thread.... it makes it distinctive from all the other bitch moan and whine threads.

I loathe left turns deeply....a big annoyance are intersections with the left turn lanes without a turn arrow, or where the turn arrow is on the light but not used...

When possible I follow the UPS drivers' approach of avoiding lefts by making 3 right turns.

(partially a phobia going back over 25 years ago when I was learning to drive in a Dodge Power Wagon w/ a 'lean burn' equipped 318...it tended to stall on left turns).

I haven't slept in my own bed or even a time zone I'm used to in what feels like an eternity.

And I'm starting to fall for the new 4Runner.
