Beep-beep, yeah

Okay, remember a few months ago when I mentioned that my Tribute was the spawn of Satan?

So on Monday, I was driving home from work when I noticed smoke coming out from under the hood of my car. I said to myself, "Self, this can't possibly be a good thing." Fortunately I was in close proximity to the dealership where I used to take it for warranty work, so I pulled into the drive and had someone look at it.

As I suspected, my radiator was leaking, and in such a manner that it needed to be replaced ASAP. I remembered that the radiator had to be replaced from an accident I was in back in August of 2004; a look at my service history at the dealer told us that the radiator was replaced AGAIN in November of 2004. And now, here it is, October 2005, and I've just had installed my 3rd radiator in a 2002 vehicle.

I am so buying a new car.

I like your Tribute, it makes me giggle. And why don't your ever reply to my emails. Don't you love me anymore? We had a good thing! Remember when we watched 28 days later?! How can you throw that away?!

Why does (or should I say DID - aw yeah, new car!) my Tribute make you giggle, Tom? What did it ever do to you?

As for e-mails, I'm on that same 6-week response period plan that you are. My primary responsibility here is entertainment of the masses. Once I've gotten that down, then I will certainly try to find something witty to write to you, personally. Preferably something not involving creepy zombies.
