Daddy's Home by Tony Rubino and Gary Markstein for June 12, 2016

Time to buy a new car. (I don’t even wanna know how the man got into a wreck THAT badly and survived unscathed.)

I agree, his clothes are torn, he is scratched up. Wail til his wife finds out.Did he really think that could be fixed?

Well, there’s your problem…The warranty expired.

Tony asked

Do you have a car?

X …Yes, actually. Yay!

What x_Tech is referring to is that last night my car started making a horrible loud, squealing noise….like some metal part was dragging in the street… but I couldn’t see anything underneath.

Today I arranged to have it towed to my mechanic. When the AAA driver came, I asked him to please tale a look first.He came out with a big piece of dark grey plastic, that I’d missed.“Here’s your noise..”a section of under-body shielding that had fallen and was touching the ground on one corner.My mechanic laughed. on the phone…and said I should probably replace it some day…. if he ever finds one.

The revenge of the stop sign?

@TonyDo you have a car?I use to but then I didn’t drive it for a long time. The insurance company I was with went out of business. The tires on the car deflated. The DMV said the car didn’t exist in their records. The highly valuable cassette tape deck disappeared. And then one day I noticed that the car just wasn’t there any more. Oh well, at least it didn’t stain the parking spot.

I have 2 cars.

@TonyNo. Don’t drive any more.

why yes, I do.

I have 2 but after the insurance payments twice a year and the tax payment once a year and the inspection ritual once a year, I begin to wonder if I really own them.

Well, now, THERE’s a Diagnostic Wiz.

@TonyDepends on what anyone who asks me that has done…

thats your problem. it looks like it was a kia

@TonyDo you have a car?

Why yes, two at the present time…

Yea I have a car: a 2004 Mercedes ML360, Sound luxurious right? No, it’s a truck. Rides like a truck, drives like a truck and people get outta my way (like a truck).I know old ladies drive little old lady cars, but I feel safe in my red……truck.

QOTD #2Nothing at all, Nothing. At. All!

@Tony: 2008 Mazda3 hatchback. It’s a great little car and amazing how much it can carry with the seats down.

Between my husband, me and our 2 sons, we have 2 cars, 1 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and a pick-up truck.
