God Hits A Home Run

Dear Blog:
Too upset to post in detail. Long story short:
Another day commuting with motor-mouth Howie at the wheel.
Charlie replaces the brake pad sensors, and now he's getting consistent readings. The diagnogstics indicated seventeen different errors dealing with various components of the ABS system, leading Charlie to conclude that the entire anti-lock break system needs to be replaced.
Charlie's Estimate: $1,200.
Eff Me.It'll take Charlie another day to get the work done.
Double eff me.I'll need to ask Howie to drive me to and from work one more day.
Triple eff me.On top of all that, I have only received seven signatures in
the petition I started.
Home run!- Bernie
