    The second time I done it on my own.

    The only good thing about getting old is no longer having to worry about dying young.

    Re: Random thoughts thread

    We just found out yesterday after taking one of our dogs to the vet that he has severe kidney failure. He is only 3 years old and in the past week his health and energy declined very fast. He was not eating or drinking water, vomiting 3 to 4 times a day, and very lethargic. The doctor said his Creatinine and BUN levels were so high that his machine he uses put the readings off the charts at the highest levels. They are now doing some blood tests and urine sample tests as well to see if it could be Addisons or another infection causing the kidney issues. He`s on fluids and was given antibiotics and anti-nausea medication.

    He`s been with the Vet the past few days for monitoring. It`s really hit us hard thinking that this could be fatal and he may not live but we are going to try to do everything we can to make sure he does that is within our means and will be the least invasive for him. Hopefully the tests come back that its caused by an infection and we can work towards treating that and getting him better. He`s the only dog out of the three that plays with my 1.4 year old daughter instead of running away and he`s normally super energetic and hes my best buddy. My daughter already feels something is wrong too. It`s so crazy how much they become a huge part of your lives and you feel the huge impact and sadness when they get sick like this.

    On a happier note, my wife just found out she is pregnant with our 2nd tonight! Aye yay yay crazy few days!

    Boy, I needed to get all this out!

    finding the second box (from the BOGO sale) of 100 Gloveworks hd gloves you ordered a while back when you just recently found the bottom of the first box - yes! still can`t find that bottle of Tornado I swore I had unopened, maybe I used it already

    that moment of silence when the customer pauses after you tell them $x and up, final price on inspection and they pause as if they were in shock.

    a lifted truck with 20inch rims, yeah I`m gonna say you`re in the and up range of my prices

    I`m sure those mods were not cheap, and neither are my prices.

    I wanted to ask if he chose the cheapest installer for those parts as well Random thoughts thread

    Looks like I found out the hard way the speedo is off in the S10, now I gotta pay the state of PA some money and get some points. Second time getting pulled over for speeding in the truck, think I need to get that fixed, lol.

    I just find it so funny how sometimes I get someone with a 10 year old Focus want the paint polished and interior completely taken care of then the guy with the 2 year old $80,000 Mercedes (never waxed or taken care of) say it’s too much just to WAX it! Random thoughts thread

    Some people just don’t value the art of detailing.

    So lately there has been a lot of BS about a new mtv show about Sarasota. It`s already been trashed by locals and now noise is getting louder since the shark dragging idiot seems to be remotely connected....

    This is a parody that seems to be very truthful v the mtv garbage

    I have the itch (after work) to spray water on my perfectly clean truck siting outside just to witness the coating behavior. Talk about Autopian problems, haha.

    things I enjoy hearing during the course of a claims interview - "this is not an exhaustive damage list..." first time I`ve ever heard someone use that term at work other than myself
