Woohoo for Saturday
Sooooo.... I have an interesting story from last night.
My friends and I are riding the bus home. The stop before ours (maybe 1/4 mile) is at Wal-Mart which has a McDonald's in the parking lot. So we decide we'll get some of that great food. As the bus is rounding the corner in the parking lot to get to the bus stop, the bus stops, it can't go that way. Why? Because there is a truck laying on its side in the middle of the road. So a bunch of us get off the bus and run over to see if anyone is inside. About 30 seconds later a couple guys come RUNNING from McDonald's yelling "Help us flip it over, let's flip it over." So, we help them, get it turned over, a fair amount of alcohol falls outta the cab. Then everyone gets back on the bus and they leave. There were 5-7 guys associated with this truck. They push the truck over a curb and into a parking spot. As my friends and I are walking to McDonalds 6 cop cars roll up and start circling the parking lot. One of the cop cars stops and talks to the guys for a few seconds then LEAVES! We're like wtf? I think they all left in a suburban and left the truck there.
We think the truck rolled because the guys took the turn too fast, maybe broke the back end loose then it caught at the wrong angle and bam? IDK, but the truck was perpindicular to the curb, so it's weird.

anyone with fiberglass or vinyl pane windows, make sure all your weep hole covers are intact. we were missing one from a window in a spare bedroom. this rain we've been having last week caused some water to get in between the frame and the sill. i've got about 4 hours invested in repairing water damage so far, more tomorrow.

That's a 17" sitting next to it.
I'll sell it to you for $800, retails for just over a grand. (bought it from my roommate so he could pay off a credit card)
