It's Alive!

The van is running again and starting better than it ever did. It was indeed just the starter. It took 15 minutes to pull it out and 10 minutes to slap the new one in. I love Chevys! And it only cost me $40 for the starter. Now I have to get an alignment and replace my front tires because the assclowns that did the alignment a fe months ago did a lousy job. I noticed when I was under the van replacing the starter that the inside of my passenger front tire is nearly bald and there's a good deal of wear on the inside of the driver front tire. Bastiches!

I listened to the local radio station yesterday, which is pretty rare for me. I heard the new Nine Inch Nails song. CRAP! I'm so disappointed. It sounded just like any other band on the radio these days. I miss the days of "Pretty Hate Machine" and "Broken." Those were good albums. Granted I know I shouldn't judge an album on one song, but it's one very shitty song. Can you blame me? I guess it's the same with Queen being judged as releasing a crap album with "Hot Space" based on the song "Body Language." It was a pretty crappy song.

Yeah. I should work. Gotta go. I have a meeting in 12 minutes. Budget stuff. Yay!

That's ironic about the starter. When we got our new car last night, we drove to the dealership and turned the car off and tried to start it again and... nope! didn't start again... I believe that is probably the starter also because we've already changed the alternater and battery (twice on the battery)... Sometimes it started, sometimes it didn't.

Luckily we have the new (used new) car now and it starts... yay!

In other news... my brother is giving me a car... a '92 Cadillac... apparently a "pimp mobile"... I'm going to try to drive it up from Maryland this coming week.

I'm glad to read your car is working again! I hope the Cadillac runs well for you. That's a pretty sweet ride!
