So go Zanio your car some more and step off old timer..
Obviously a member of the "give me, give me," instant gratification generation. Like all infants, they tend to whine if not spoon-fed.

I suppose I could go into the fact that I've accomplished all I've ever hoped for in my life. I guess I could try to explain that I'm at a point where, if I went tomorrow, I'd be content and have no regrets.
However, going into and trying to explain all that to someone living their own crybaby existence would be a waste of time so I won't.

We have hijacked this thread enough. We are all Vette Dr loyalists here, so if I were you I would make the call. They are very busy, Carmen just doesnt sit in front of his PC, (the table is another thing). You will be happy with any work they do to your car.
Cant we all just get along

At least I'm not living in the existence I used to have, you're not a state trooper anymore, but you're still calling yourself one. You're saying NOW it's not worth your time? It wasn't your business in the first place, don't try to pull this holier than thou **** , I don't dive in a pool then say swimming isn't worth my time. You're a ridiculous person with a ridiculous perception of a life well spent as a dog to the system who's life was devoted primarily to giving people **** and now you obviously can't get out of the habit.

Crybaby? That's a good one, it was good when I heard it in 2nd grade too. What exactly is a crybaby existence too? I complain because I want CUSTOMER SERVICE that's been replied to over the very same medium he used to communicate it in the first place! Is this somehow ridiculous?

Thanks a lot for your interest, but if I could just get a price quote - the diahrea of the mouth by some has been, that'd be great, have a fabulous day!
