Default What a mess!
Some jerk removed a political sign from a front yard and threw it in the street in my neighborhood. I didn't see the damn thing until I was right on top of it. One of the spiny little legs was bent up and punctured a radiator hose. Arghhhhhhhhhh! Son of a witch.
I could eat razorblades right about now.

So, I'm guessing you're sending him a bill ??

Or just not voting for him ?

Now that's a strange one. Should be an easy fix if it's just a hose.

I never realized how much debris there is on the road until I started driving a Corvette. I just missed some kind of major road kill yesterday.
