On my way to the waterfront Friday night, running late to meet up with some people to see Talladega Nights, my temp gauge pegged a mile before the Homestead exit of 376. I said, “Fuck it,”, and drove the remaining two miles to the theatre. Watched the movie (a little disappointing, I might add) and came back out to figure out what the fuck happened. Poured some bottled water in, it came out under the car. Looked under the car, my plastic tray was annihilated. I’m thinking I smashed it on Logan Street in Millvale on a delivery.

Long story short, my car is sitting at Wright Suzuki in Wexford, awaiting a water pump, thermostat, new belts, oil and coolant changes, and other related shit. My total? $150-200. I guess it could have been a lot worse.

Isn’t that shit box under warranty? Isn’t that the whole idea with having that shit box? Or are they refusing to cover it since it was smashed up? Your ins. should cover it if it was “something in the road” though I don’t know what your deductable is. Aren’t you at all worried about motor damage (probably a blown head gasket) from running it that hot? Eh, then again it is just a shit box.

Pretty much unrelated but my little brothers friend said he was Terri Schiavo’d the other night. I’m like what do you mean. hes like " you know when you are soo drunk, that you sit back in a chair with your head to the side and you cant move, thats what i call being Terri Schiavo’d."

My deductible is a lot more than $200, or I would have called Progressive.

I parallel parked the Econoline last night.

The Reno is going to feel like a fucking go kart when I get it back.

After riding in the Econoline all day yesterday, it sucks.

But your Suzuki isn’t Terri Schiavo.

Your Suzuki overheats, but Terri Schiavo is hot.

Congress is overstepping its boundaries to interdict on the fate of your car?

i haven’t replaced anything on it other than tires, oil, oil filters, one set of brake pads, one air filter (K&N), headlight bulbs, and the two fuses that my power inverter blew. In 42000 miles.

The water pump was damaged, not defective.

Try again, lad.
