In order to keep it classy, does that mean we would have needed to be classy before? I think that excludes me.

I'm a "why yes I will help myself to the left-over half-bottle of wine" kind of guy.

Last weekend I didn't need permission for anything. Did not even ask for forgiveness the next day.

This accident thing is working out pretty good. I'm getting $1500 after scrapping fee but the truck needs recertification to go back on the road. So I'm selling the rad motor and trans and turning it into a trailer. Hows them apples, pretty classy eh.

Sounds like that'll work out nicely for you. That's always a bonus.

I've found I've had great luck when I get a low-dollar vehicle written off. The insurance company always offers a decent value.

Sounds like some things are starting to work out for you. And as for me only three more days of work and I can finally take a week of holidays and get back to the Alberta experience.

lookie what I got, a green cloth lawnchair and an ugly old white fence.

Checked Princess auto online last night and they had engine hoists for a dollar a pound, $230 taxes in and I got a leveler for $30. According to the book value I was expecting to see from 650 to 800 for it so that was a pleasant surprise. Already have a motor lead, selling rad to tailshaft for 600, saves the buyer chasing down parts and pieces that way. I hope it doesn't rain like cbc says it's going to, would make for a crappy week off, but it's better than snow or cold.
