Happy Birthday Nutty!
Sorry to hear about your car, Theodosia. Hopefully your insurance company will get the fixing process to run smoothly.
I worked at breakneck speed until almost 1 am to get a couple of badly overdue page proofs out. Now I find that my motivation and work ethic didn't wake up when I did this morning.
If you shop for a used car several months from now, you might want to give the carpet an extra close sniff.
You could be purchasing a dried-out casualty of Hurricane Katrina.
Whether acting as entrepreneurs or scam artists, wholesale car dealers soon will be scouring the ruins of New Orleans, Mississippi and Alabama for flood-damaged vehicles. They will obtain the cars for pennies, refurbish them and then sell them to buyers, some of whom won't be told of their purchase's waterlogged history.
...
The problem is not necessarily the practice of refurbishing the cars; it is whether the cars are identified as being salvaged.
It begins when insurance companies rule cars a total loss and make settlement payments to dealers or private owners. They, in turn, sell the vehicles cheap at auction, after which the car's title is branded as a "flood" or "salvage" vehicle.
But some opportunists will take those vehicles to different states that don't require the cars to list its previous condition on the title. With its history wiped clean, they are moved again, ending up for sale in places such as Chicago.
Happy Birthday, Nutty!
I'm so sorry, -t. This has to be one of the worse times ever for this country, and now it's compounded for you. My heart goes out to you and your family.
-t, I'm so sorry. I'm glad you're safe and with your family, and you're all in my thoughts.
Best wishes, -t, and many sympathies for your grandmother.
Best wishes to you and your family, -t.
Now people are asking me grammar questions about technical stuff. If something is extended "until a certain date", is that midnight of that date, or midnight of the day after that date?
HOW THE HELL SHOULD I KNOW. The person who requested it in with that phrasing is ESL to begin with and notorious for weird grammar.
And I'm having a weird moment where I'm hyperaware that my limbs are ....limbs. It's very strange.
I'm so very sorry, -t, for your grandmother's passing and for all you've had to endure. All sympathies and punctuation to you and your family.
-t, much strength to you. Much, much strength.
I'm very sorry, -t.
