that sucks! how bad is it?
I drove by it about 4 days ago and it looked fine, but there was also snow on it...

It's cracke in 2 places. Not super bad but will need major fiberglass work. It's still in one piece. One of the nights it was snowing my alarm went off and I ran out barefoot and didn't see any broken glass so I didn't think much of it. The snow covered the damage till it completely melted away. I think it was someone from the school. They hit it and when they heard the alarm decided to park in the lot instead.

Worst part about it is the shop that did the work couldn't match the factory color right so they ended up doing the entire car. I need to find someone who can match it.

Red Robin. When did it get so nasty? Processed chicken and some really nasty beef...like Sam's Club frozen patty beef.

Still my favorite burger. We only go to the one by our house though, so it's possible that other locations are not as good. We're going there Monday actually.

Have you had the $13 burger there that tastes just like the cheaper burgers? I have, lol. I always get the Whisky River burger and endless fries with ranch. Yum.

Just the regular old bacon cheeseburger with pepper jack for me. And of course ranch with the fries. I can't wait for Monday, it's been like 2 months since we went there last, lol.

You and Chris are on crack:lol:

I dunno, maybe its just that location (Park Meadows)? But it was disgusting...like where you feel guilty for even consuming it. Not because you knew it was bad for you, but because you knew it was fake meat (but you ate it anyway, cuz you were so hungry).

Bar soap. Haven't found a bar yet that doesn't coat the shower in soap scum...which its doing the same to my precious milky white skin

As delicate as you are, you really need a loofa and some "shower gel".

They work great (or so I hear; grabs handful of lava and washes undercarriage to prove manliness).

Is it just bred into car dealership workers that they need to lie? Don't tell me you gave me a complimentary car wash when you didn't. Just tell me that my truck was already clean and you didn't need to wash it, or indicate that I usually decline the car wash because I don't want their grimy mitts swirling the paint. But definitely don't say that "We washed and shined your truck up for you...it looks great now!" when you did not. A small thing, but I was already a bit annoyed being the only service appt there, and that it took you over an hour to supposedly rotate the tires. I should've marked them before I went in. Guess I should check to windshield washer fluid they were supposed to "top off" as well. Grrrr.

I know I've complained about the free service before, and complaining about dealers is old news, but man...dealerships in pretty much every capacity SUCK.
