Tolls in our zipcars are free.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Bah. Each city is different, and in San Francisco it's strictly by the hour and we pay the tolls upfront (actually, it looks like Boston and NY do too; you just have EZ Passes in the cars that run you through without paying the tolls in cash, but at some point they do get charged to your account).

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

That's too bad - sounds like it might have been a workable solution otherwise.

zipcars

you are correct. I just didn't realize. I use it so rarely.

ION, the movers are about halfway through moving out the stuff that is going to storage. The basement storage unit is now empty and all they have up here to move is 90% boxes, so that should go fast. I had like three loads of stuff in the basement that I had to pull up here to still go through or get rid of. TOO MUCH STUFF!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hey Hec - I talked to my boss about your car.

Are you sure the smoke was coming out of the tailpipe? If so, the possibilities are pretty much all bad. If the smoke was coming from under the car, it could be a coolant or transmission fluid leak.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

(actually, it looks like Boston and NY do too; you just have EZ Passes in the cars that run you through without paying the tolls in cash, but at some point they do get charged to your account).

It took YEARS of emailing before they put those EZ Passes in - I don't understand why all rental cars don't have them. (I'd also love for Zipcars to have GPS, but I'm guessing the theft rate would be too much for them to handle.)

You could just buy your own. Some cost less than a 100 bucks and you just suction them on and you're good to go.

Hey, I am trying to talk myself into going to an old friend's wedding in Santa Cruz on May 15. (My hesitancies are $$ and having to rely on friends & complex logistics for local transport, plus being a HUGE GIANT DORK.) Does anyone want to tell me how lovely it would be to visit NorCal in May?
