    I don't care what they ask me to do. If they are paying me, I'm doing it. Sure I'll have my moments, but the reality is..they are giving you some hours. While it sucks..it's something.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Didn't make a lick of progress with Bank of America. For one the entire foreclosure and mortgage department is over the phone, so we can never discuss this with someone in person. And if we were to have a representative make the phone calls for us, it would restart the process over, according to rude *****.
    She was the rudest heifer she just made me sick. She just said to wait for figures in the mail and go from there. I explained to her we only have 22 days until we go back to court and they take the keys pretty much.
    This is all a huge misunderstanding and Mike's house was just taken by the bank like it means nothing. Im so disgusted and depressed..

    ff to the hurricane sandy, she gets this great idea to have the car totaled by fema, all she needs is a letter from a dealer saying its dead due to flood damage.

    she dropped it off at least 2 weeks ago, they call her up and say its out of gas and wont start, ( thats whats wrong it wont start) car had gas. first sign this place blows.

    yesterday they called her up and want to,,, get this, hold on to your hats.......charge her 1300.00 to change just a distributor cap and rotor.

    i told her not to have that done as i just changed it. i then told my friend/ her boy friend ive been grossly under charging her for working on this car lol

    every thing ive found points to the coil and or cam sensor being bad, dealer just cant figure this out???????

    and this would be a 2000 sebring. what a pos!
    to continue lol


    so i met up with my friend today and it turns out the dealer wanted 1300 for just a new distributor, installed was another 5 to 600 they told her.

    so it looks like in getting a rebuilt one for about 160 with discount codes, and installing it in the next day or so.

    dealers are something else i tell ya.

    That's crazy. I feel I'm undercharging people to but most of them need the work done but don't have the money. People think i'm crazy when I can do a brake job for under $100

    whats this cycled? fill tank, add chlorine remover, dump fish in lol thats how my set up happened. or if i want to i could use water from another tank to fill the new one 1/2 way.

    i had 5 at one time going. glad them days are over lol i used to hook up the hose to the wash room faucet, let it run till it got t0 78 deg's, pinch it off let it fly right into the tank, fish and all swimming up stream into the hose water, add chlorine remover, all was good, all 5 tanks got this treatment every week.

    oh and the vacuum went into a garden hose, and then outside to the garden lol why waste the fishy stinking water. more like pond.

    I chose to cycle fishless. It's about getting the beneficial bacteria developed in the filter media and putting the tank thru the nitrogen level peak without the fish in the tank. You can do it either way, fishless is just easier and it is less water changes and less stress on a fish.

    Don't worry, I never did a cycle tank until now and always had good luck. I joined a fish forum and realized how much i was doing wrong. I felt so bad for my fish

    That's how it seems to work with car forums, too.

    I've got friends with a fish tank tarantula tank, three snake tanks, and they are meticulous with them all. I'm sure the electric bill is less than thrilling.
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.

    i picked up feeder gold fish to use for all that in the past, really seamed like a waste of time.

    being that 95% of my fish out lived my liking of them, and the care for them. they all lived for at least 10 years or more with me, ( i was doing something right) and were sold or given away. along with the tanks.

    as well as my iguana Kramer. and his 55 gallon set up. i got him at 8 inches, gave him away when he was 48 inches long, head to tail. and i can add the damn coolest lizard ever! he liked to be handled, petted, hand fed. and sorta potty trained, as he had full roam of the house lol he only went to the bathroom, in the bathroom, being it was a vinyl floor it was a easy clean up. damn thing only crapped maybe 2 times a week.

    Wow, just wow.

    So yesterday, I loaded a 20' container for a customer in Venezuela. Once loaded I finish up things like Commerical Invoice and Packing List and whatever else is required and send scanned copies to my freight forwarder and to my sales rep.

    Anyway my sales rep emails me today with a DHL account number that I will have to send documents to once I receive originals back from the forwarder. He also added to the email "I forgot to tell you to add 5 Toyota tailgates to the container. I hope you did it."

    Seriously?????

    I guess I am supposed to be psychic now.

    USPS is loosing money on this shipment. I just packaged up 2 large flat rate boxes. 1 is pushing 120lbs and the other will probably be 70-80. I sure hope I don't have to be the one to drop them at the post office.

    Hey, if it fits it ships anywhere in the US. We take that seriously here.
