$700 for a clutch... is it a Porche?  Wow!  $130 for a tow.  This is why JT is happy to pay for AAA every year.  FMJT has used it for flat tires and such.  But JT really has it to avoid what happened to KR.

Not even close, a 97 Chevy Cavalier.

$351 for the clutch and $350 for labor. Being as how my car was not functioning and I didn't wanna spend any more time in Kentucky than I had to I didn't have much of a choice.


How much is AAA a year? KR is now strongly getting AAA coverage for himself and the Mrs.



Gro',
Here's the irony, just 3 days before leaving for vacation, KR had switched car insurance from Progressive to Geico in order to save $100 every 6 months for himself and the Mrs.
In his infinite wisdom, KR declined the towing option for his car but picked it up for MrsKR's car which is 5 years newer and 100,000 less miles.

WTF was KR thinking?

KR,

JT pays $68.50 for two id's.  Its probably isn't perfect, but AAA shops have to follow certain pricing guidelines.  JT has a copy of the policy in both cars.

Plus if you carry the card in your wallet, you are covered if you get stuck in someone else's ride who doesn't have AAA.

We also figure the other bennies actually pay for the card each year.  The Hotel, restaurant, and travel related discounts.

Agree with JT. Even one AAA call pays for the membership. (tow, jumpstart, locksmith) Almost any hotel will give you  a AAA rate that's much better than their rack or even corporate rate.

Thanks JT and Fins.
I am going to put a call in to the local AAA this afternoon.

one of gro's projects right now is putting a new roof on the facility. I get to supervise the guy who supervises the guy that supervises the actual roofers.  Cake project. Basically gro just has to go on the roof 2-3 times a week and small talk.  So whenever I'm up there, I always think of this old skit from the jerky boys about roofers... and I have this sh!t eating grin on my face the whole time.

"They're up there slappin' eachother with the hot mops!"

KS and MKS also have AAA, we pay slightly over 100.00 per year for the plus.  There is no towing limit with plus.  350 for labor, how long did it take, 8 hours? 

Was it like the old AAmco commercial?  Some big hillbilly swinging a sledge hammer saying "Transmission, I ain't never worked on a transmission before"

11 hours.
KR and Mrs KR are now the proud owners of a AAA policy!



KS,
I think the hillbilly that worked on my transmission was the one from the commercial!

tony kornheiser looks great in HD

Anyone else get a p0rn add in their personal message box?  This a new feature Pat?

['gro]

Re: p0rn
yup... what is this world coming to Pat? I thought you were a family man!  <--- sarcasm, don't revoke gro's posting ability.

Re: monday night football, again.

Joe Theisman is terrrrrible! he was terrible on sunday night. Theisman and Kornheiser were going at it all night... if its gonna be like that, bring in wilbon and just have monday night PTI, it would at least be funny.

My ultimate crappy announcer team would have Joe Buck, Theisman, and Bill Walton on the call. They should do every single sporting event in the world.

[Kilted Rat]

Yeah, definitely got the p0rn PM.
If you're gonna PM KR a PM with a pic in it, please don't have it be a naked asian dood. KR saw enough naked asian doods in the sauna in Hawaii.



*on a side note that experience was one helluva confidence booster 

[PBR...]

KR ...when pbr was in hawaii last november that is the one big reason before pbr got a personal hot rock massages he asked who would be giving the massage and made sure it was no dood!!!

Citizens of monkey stompville (LLPP fantasy football)

Looks like only a few teams have started tweaking their rosters... not like you can guess who is going to be the next larry johnson (I hope it's chester taylor)... but for pete's sake the computer drafted 2 kickers and 2 def's per team, drop them for somebody!!

[finsleft]

Gro-
I'm with you on Theisman. QB makes a couple of plays in a row and it's like "this kid is really going to be great!" Then after he botches a play it's "this kid really has a lot to learn about being a QB in the NFL." One more reason to go to the bar to watch MNF. You can't hear that idiot over the din and the girls laughing at your clever jokes.

As for monkey stompville, why would anybody drop a kicker or a D? Don't you want to keep 2? If not for yourself, to keep someone else from grabbing them?

[JT]

That combo would be sooo bad, it would be great.  Can Theisman ever shut up?  Does Bill Walton actually talk that sloooow? And Buck for comic relief when he tries to be "down".

Someone dig up Cosell.  He's probably better dead than some of the doods they roll out. Dennis Miller anyone?

[Garnet]

Garnet also received the same PM regarding the pr0n.
