See that kinda pisses me off because half the time I can't even find my car keys and my cigarettes on my kitchen counter. Glad you have better luck than I do.
Maybe you should call your Mom more often.

HAHAHA!!!!!!! I made a shirt for a friend that said "CHECK'S IN THE MAIL" in really big bold black letters. He loves it and still wears it.
I need a boost guage, but now because of my stupidity i have a dent i need to get out of my door, so the dent is going to come out first and then i'm getting a boost guage.

Don't worry, it's OK -- I'm sterile.

I won't come in your mouth.

well, now i have another story to add to this.....

I was driving home last night and WHOOSH!!!! i see something fly infront of my face and i'm like "wtf was that?!?!?!" and i notice something looking really odd and i realized that i could see light behind my light housing and up onto my hood. then it hit me.... my headlight cover flew off. i found a place to turn around and went back to find it.... there it was... laying in 1 large piece, 2 smaller pieces and about 50 bajillion tiny pieces across the 3 lane highway..... the semi that was behind me ran it over... so now i have to get a new drivers side headlight cover, paint, pay someone to paint it that knows how to tri-coat paint (J9 [CYM] is a tri-coat paint) and i also have to go with the embarrassment of having a big opening where it should be sleek..... *cries*

Why does this keep happening, my headlight covers are fixed quite solidly and would never come off.

When i first looked at the title of this thread i thought why has a little story of a headlight cover coming off gone two pages, now i see ....you called the filth and your mom! i just can't beleive the filth came out and helped you like that and you had the cheek to call them! thats hilarious man!

I can just picture it, traffic pigs slowing the traffic while you rescued your poor battered and bruised cover its almost comical, anyhow glad you got it back in one piece.
