Dual Rants
[ed note: Sorry, but I am in a really bad mood today, and the doctor prescribed two rants per day on the blog to minimize my misery...]
Rant 1 - How come car repairs only come in $300 increments? A radiator leak prompted me to take my car to a trusted individual who moonlights in such things. Strangely, every time he calls me to give me an update on the progress, the price has gone up $300. Head gasket? $600. OK, that sucks. Having the head milled at a machine shop? $900. OK, Looks like I'll be selling some things on E-Bay. Cracked timing chain guide? OK, Now we are at $1200 and I now have his number blocked. That should at least keep the price fixed...
Rant 2 - Does anyone else *get* Paris Hilton? At least Brooke Shields appeared in one movie and a Calvin Klein series of commercials before we called her 'famous', and she spent the rest of her life Doing Nothing Being Famous. Paris Hilton shows every lack of talent that Brooke Shields has (or is that 'doesnt have'?) but she hasn't done anything except look smarmy. She just oozes Self-Ritious-Pretentious-Bitchiness. If there was any justice in the world, she would be living under a bridge, begging for scraps. I wouldn't screw Paris Hilton with my neighbor's dog's penis, although I wouldn't mind screwing her out of $1200 to get my car fixed...
