120,000 miles, give or take. I hate putting tons of miles on Winston Mini, but I guess he'll go to work with me tomorrow, and to take Mom back to Chesapeake on Thursday. Hope all her luggage fits.
The other BMW, the brown Roadster, was in the body shop last week after B hit a curb trying to park. I think we need to move someplace with a functioning rapid transit system.

Re: The Official "Good Morning" Thread
I backed in to my landscaper's trailer just before Christmas. The bumper worked, but it's got one huge dent in it. I need to get it fixed, but I'm scared to think how much the body shop is going to charge me.lawgrad91 wrote:Thanks!CathyCA wrote: Sorry to hear about the Saab.

I managed to back into my insurance agent's car in my old church's parking lot during a rainstorm. Backing into my agent saved me a phone call, at least.CathyCA wrote:I backed in to my landscaper's trailer just before Christmas. The bumper worked, but it's got one huge dent in it.

The Saab needs a fuel pump. About $600. It could be worse, though. It'll be ready tomorrow. I'm not ready to drive Winston Mini to the varnish zone five days a week.

Many times, when having a water pump replaced, a new belt is in order since it's off anyway.

One of my eyes is almost open, the other is waiting for the first one to say everything is ok.

Hello. Yeah, it's afternoon here, but it's still morning in DA's neck of the woods.
Back from the funeral. Query: why does a 5'6" man who is cremated need 13 pallbearers?

There were 12 guys escorting the one guy carrying the urn. A motley crew-mostly judges and lawyers.
