Just an idea, how about surprising your good wife with some flowers to say "hey Thanks".....
Thanks whiplash23T,

It’s usually amusing when it’s over and everything is all right. At the time I was not so amused.

Yes I called my wife at work a few times to say I’m sorry. My wife asked me if I were her would I put up with me? I said absolutely not. She has gone through this kind of stuff with me for over 40 years.

My wife is a real JEWEL and when I’m not being a pain in her behind I treat her nice, it’s just these so and so cars that get me screwed up. I have a love hate with cars. When they are nice and clean running good, people ask about them it’s love, when they won’t start, break down, it’s hate.

I did tell the Officer the colors matches theirs, tan and brown and a lady that works with the Court went on and on about how nice it was.

Tomorrow we go to look at another car, this one is not a hot rod or custom. It’s a 2000 Neon that one of the Sister’s had a head on collision with $1,970 in damages plus maybe a few things the garage couldn’t see. I’m thinking about $400 or $500 since I have 2000 Neon with 185,000 miles on it. If I can take the front end and put it on the other car I think my wife would ease up on me a bit.

PS I see you couldn’t sleep either or there is a big time difference.

Richard
