Was thinking about this last night, did you get a new rag joint? Pretty sure they did away with it in the '87 model change. That certainly sounds like the problem.
As far as alignment shops you could go to Strong Alignment on Silver La. in E.H., just around the corner from Cabella's. Or Flanders in Hartford on Franklin Ave.

Next step is dropping the heads off to E&G on Dudley Ave in Wallingford to be decked and magnafluxed. The manifolds will be getting decked as well. May as well do it right.

miles- if you watch the clip we saw, he definitely hit one guy, look like iin the arm. then after that he just started whipping the gun while pulling the trigger. almost like he was throwing the bullets at them. kudos to the woman who came in and hit him with her purse, her ***** were biggest out of them all. unfortunately she was not certain what to do after the purse swinging. also, the other mary's in the room didnt offer any backup for her.

andy and jim, and any other person slightly educated in general carpentry.......you would die if you could see the trim work in this hotel room. i cant get a good picture in the dim light, but they used 3" nails to hold 1 1/4" worth of wood together. they were very liberal with the nails, so there are about 50 1 3/4" spikes poking out the back of the header board in front of the curtain.

Aaron, Just how did you figure this out? 
Were you laying on the floor?
Production carpenters don't want to take the time to switch nails when they have 200 suites to finish.
They're hanging crown using long nails, they can't see it from their house.
Me, I usually have at least two guns and a hose splitter...

greg, its actually a nice place. marble bathroom, sleep number beds, big rooms. i thanked him by sending a craigslist "lady of the evening" to his room. dont tell him, its a surprise.
andy, i know they were thinking "nobody is going to look here", but the nails are casting shadows that struck me as odd, so i looked, and saw the meat hooks waiting to snag some poor maid that attempts to change the curtains.
