    Angry Bad Luck And Summer Has Just Started

    so heres how the last 3 weeks of bad luck goes.first it starts off by leaving my house to goto work only a block away from the house i manage to hit a car as i was making a left hand turn - oh did i mention that there was a mini school bus turning onto my street and when i was making the turn i thought i was clear but some lady was driving on the blind spot of the school bus.grrrrrrr - strike one.now i dont want to go through my insurance company because i dont want it on my record so i tell the lady i will settle it out of my pocket.she gets a few estimates and they range from 850 to 1600. well she tells me she is going to take it to a place that quoted her 950 which is very kind of her i must say but still its coming out of my pocket - strike 2.well i have already gotten a new bumper and its painted the same week this happens.i put on the bumper a week before the rpm show everything seems fine so far right?so today shadows and i jack up my car to drain some radiator fluid so i can put some water wetter in there.guess what happens as shadows goes to put the jack stands under the car the jack gives and to make a story short my bumper is folded on top of the jack and its not looking pretty at this point,but at least shadows didnt get hurt that was probably more important! STRIKE 3 YOURE OUT!

    Don't worry I crashed the project were working on the first time it went on the road. The damn side mirror on the thing cost $1300. It's going to be a pricy repair.

    Hey Peter, Ya it was good seeing ya for a quick second. We will meet up again.

    What happened to the mirror. We purchased a new ride. Weve been getting some work done on it. It was out of the shop one night. I borrowed it to go to the clubs with some friends. After leaving we were side swiped by a drunk girl.
