Thanks for the coffee, but I'll pass on the pot. It's warming up a bit. Just came in from checking out my sister's car.
She lost control on some ice and was trying to avoid a van on her way to school, nose-dived right into a ditch, and the passenger side swung around and slammed into the ditch. She's fine, luckily. She's got tons of medical problems, so she wouldn't recover quickly.
Her car, however, seems to be totaled, in my amateur opinion. The front bumper - plastic, not metal, thankfully; it would've likely sliced her tires if it were metal - is severely cracked, and barely attached on the passenger side. No extensive damage to driver's side; just a front turn-signal light broken out. There seems to be a great difference in the wheel-clearance between the front and rear tires, as well as differences, though not as large, in all of the tires. That, to me suggests either that there's no suspension [bad] or that the frame is bent. [worse] I'm thinking it's both; pushing and rocking the front end has no movement whatsoever. | | Distinguished Member with 28,046 posts. | | Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: uk Experience: Chocoholic |

#26 | Wow a all new coffee shop. I can still smell the fresh paint but the small of my great coffee will take over in a day or two.
I knew Lu was having some trouble but guess it was worse then I knew so glad to hear that now she has gotten what is needed and seems to be doing well. We are all praying for you you Lu.
Prays for your sister PCG342 too.
Ok now lets see where is my best coffee at I was hiding in the other shop? Looks like it is not around here anyplace  but that is good news because it was in my hiding place so I will go over and get it and make a fresh pot of my best coffee and then find a new hiding place here. | | Account Disabled with 786 posts. | | Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: The far side of my skull Experience: Intermediate |

#27 | Thanks, folks, but as I said, she's doing just fine, and as sarcastic as always.  Welcome to the new hiding place, Hewee. | | Distinguished Member with 54,744 posts. | | Join Date: Oct 2001 Location: *Random People Pleaser***Sacra Experience: Having fun |

#28 | Well if she is her sarcastic self then she must be ok.
I think you got the hiding place mixed up. I am not talking about the coffee shop but where I hide the best coffee beans at.  And only I know where they are at. | | Account Disabled with 786 posts. | | Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: The far side of my skull Experience: Intermediate |
