motorcrash

[substitute]

So, I did the SoCal thing today and crashed my car. Guy in front of me stopped, so did I, guy behind me didn't, I got to be the cueball in a game of freeway billiards. Total cost to me is $30/day for a rental car for the next 2-3 weeks and maybe $1000 deductible, plus angst and rage and higher insurance. Fortunately no obvious people damage although god knows what I'll feel like tomorrow, that double impact stuff sucks.

I am now the proud renter of an incredibly shitty bright red Neon. If I crash this thing I'm doomed, it's made out of bubble wrap and rice paper and has four-wheel chopstick brakes and an engine that runs on baking soda & vinegar.

Holy Shit Kr0nr4d!!!!!

Are you ok? Do you want me to talk to someone in claims at work?

Whiplash is paying nicely these days.

I'd call you right now, but my phone is out to lunch.
