That didn't ping me because the last car I had blew up at 13 years and 205K and blew up due to a bad oil change and me driving in DC traffic with no oil cap, not usual wear and tear.
I'm going to be doing 2.5 to 3 jobs in the next coming weeks. falls down

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I've been looking into the administration's plan to help borrowers because I seriously don't trust it, but I found this.

I just find very little this administration does to be "encouraging." Though they keep thanking me for doing the job they won't.

Hey, everybody. Just thought I'd check in. Things are going fairly well so far, knock on wood. Just dozed on the couch, am about to eat dinner and get ready to go back into town. Sigh. Anybody want to come down here to go to a high school football game with me?

Jilli, do not click this [link] and plan on never ever going to Wills Point, TX.
I like the Jilli-scaring-things, and even so, this is a wee bit much.
