Accident

Well - it happened. On Friday, I was almost into the Lincoln Tunnel. The person in front of me stopped hard and so did I. Unfortunately the person behind me did not. The result was >$2,000 of damage to my bumper and rear deck lid. At least that's what Allstate appraised the damage to be. Adding to the mess - my coffee cup decided to vent all of the contents all over the inside of the car and down my back. Fortunately the Big Green Clean Machine was up to the task and got all remnants out of the carpet, the seats and most importantly the headliner. Should be a week or so until it is back in order.

Oh no!!! Crazy New York drivers! Well, at least it wasn't your fault and all the coffee came out. Oh, and I believe it's que sera sera. ;-)

At least no one was stuck in the truck seeing if the light stayed on.

Post about the SuperBowl, you know you want to. Because our team won you know. Oh that's right, they're not your team anymore because you're a TRAITOR! I recall you telling me on the phone one day, "I'm a Giants fan now. I went to one Giants game and now I LOOOVE them!" (OK, well maybe I made up that second part, but you still are a traitor) Ha, so take that. Giants are losers, Steelers are the BOMB!

Your ever loving daughter,

I'm sorry to see that! Ouch! If it's any consolation, I was in an accident this past weekend in Lake Tahoe, although fortunately it was in an insured rental SUV. Poor Beamer! I took collision off mine (to save on insurance and because I wasn't driving it while in India). Maybe I should reconsider...

By the way, what is the deal with the Post-it note covering your license plate? Is this an attempt to preserve your privacy? this coudl be one of those too-little too-late kind of things since you name is displayed on this blog.

'Oh, and part of your address is there too. Trust me, I am not trying to be critical here, as I would be OK if they want to put a chip in my head. After all they can listen to all of my phone conversations, monitor my activity at libraries and book stores, and do whatever they please. Our privacy in this country is pretty much gone. And just so they know that I am a good citizen, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11. I can never forget that I no longer need any freedoms or liberties from the past because of 9/11. Am I allowed to hate these people? No? OK, thank you. Oh no, out of Vaseline, again? Please wait, no, no, please be gentle, no, no, OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!
