Yeah there is a place. I have not been there in a while but I seem to recall it being over by Hawkeye downs on the SW side. Off the 33rd st exit, right, left just passed the taco bell, on the right side just passed the junkyard. I might be remembering wrong though.
I'm working tomorrow...but then I get another weekend. ;-)
Fair enough... I suspected tie rods.
If the battery is going, that will get you on the first cold morning... that's worth a trip to Sears at the Lacey mall. I don't think you can beat Sears for batteries.
I just bought all sorts of cool stuff at BB&B. Now I have to decide what to make for dinner. I stopped at Target for another of those spinny cabinet things and checked their grocery section... they have almost all the ingredients I need to make stuff in the Chinese cookbook. Like wonton and eggroll wrappers... I think I will try something out of there tonight. Sweet and sour chicken maybe but I don't know how well that will reheat for lunch. Want me to just make one dinner's worth and we can have a sandwich or something together tomorrow?
Also BB&B did not have the mixing bowls I wanted, but Target had the perfect set for $10 - they're ceramic and everything, whereas the ones at BBB were three times that much for plastic. Go figure.
Cool! Great loot. I got some too. The company technical library was giving away massive amounts of books and I have several piles of old engineering texts in my car.
The dinner plans sound good to me.
We had a Sears battery once that went out on us. My Daddy joked that it Died Hard. *snort*
Neat! More books huh. We are going to need more bookshelves soon.
Going to run some laundry now and see how the drain does.
Well, they replace them though, if that happens :~)
SirKit has always like their tools; the Craftsman brand always had a lifetime warranty. I don't know if they still do, or not.
They do, on both counts...
Sears killed it.
Maybe they'll give us a replacement.
I'm just goofing off and waiting for Goodyear to call back.
I can't say just *how* happy I am with the idea that I may be able to drive without fighting the vehicle at all times! What a concept...
Is that allowed? You'd better check... driving a vehicle easily? Whoa.
That is the problem with problems that sneak up on you. You just learn to live with them and they have to get really bad before you fix them :P I hate that. I am too good at procrastinating
What makes me cranky is that this one has been a problem since right after I got to Fort Collins. And the guys there kinda mislead me about how hard it would be to fix, so I've put it off.
Oh well. It will make driving a far less tiring and aggravating experience. I should have done it sooner, though.
Well, it's done now, so get yourself a couple of those little side-view mirrors, and you'll feel much more confident on the road! They are just peel and stick, so you could sit in the driver's seat, and Hair or ecurbh could hold them onto the big side-view mirrors so you can get just the right view, then they could stick them on for you!
It detects the infrared coding scheme used by a particular TV, and then lets you take control.
For $14, I may get one just so I don't have to be subject to CNN News while waiting for my mom in the doctor's waiting room.
Heh. A sign like that has lots of potential. Lots. Might put one on my office door.
