Default F***ing pot holes!

So i live in Alberta, Edmonton to be exact... we are having one god damn weird winter this year (had weather above freezing quite a few times so far). Due to this weird weather the roads are just falling apart... holes everywhere... and as faith would have it one end up being right infront me saturday night, never saw.. smoked it and it hit so hard to my rear passenger side strut went right through the mount!!!

Im sure you Southern people are quite happy you dont have to deal with this BS!! 50$ for the mount, and a few hours of swearing im sure!!

[/align][align=center][/align][align=center][/align][align=center][:-][/align][align=center]Hi `Richard,[/align][align=center]Sorry to read about your damage [X(][/align][align=center]In the State of Florida, we also have `Pot holes caused by the[/align][align=center]heavy truckshauling Pot to the party people,[8D][/align][align=center]and then we have something called Sink Holes[/align][align=center]that appear on roads/property that will swallow your whole car,[/align][align=center]homes, people[X(][/align][align=center]You can be driving along, []and all of a sudden theres no[/align][align=center]more road and just a big large hole. (With no `Pot: )[/align][align=center]That a Super Big Sink`in Hole 4-Sure : )[/align][align=center][/align][align=center]Wish you safer miles on your roads of `life[/align][align=center]`Space[/align][align=center][/align][align=center]
Sinkholes are a common naturally occurring geologic phenomenon and one of the predominant land forms in Florida.[/align][align=center][:-][/align][align=center]
Many of the lakes in Florida are relic sinkholes. Sinkholes can be classified as geologic hazards sometimes causing extensive damage to structures and roads resulting in costly repairs. Sinkholes can also threaten water supplies by draining unfiltered water from streams, lakes and wetlands directly into the aquifer (underground water supply).
What if a sinkhole opens on my property? [/align][align=center]
[ul][*]If your home is threatened, contact your homeowners insurance company.[*]If extensive damage occurs to your house or property, notify the Office of Emergency Management for the county.[*]If desired, the resident may make contact with a private contractor to evaluate the hole to officially determine if it is a sinkhole. [/ul][/align][align=center][:-]

[/align][align=center]The State of Florida has been putting those that have been[/align][align=center][/align][align=center]busted for `pot out on work details to fill in the `Pot Holes[/align][align=center][/align][align=center]along the `highways. LOL[/align][align=center][/align][align=center][:-][8D][:-]

Well its an everyday thing for me as well in the winter, they just seem that much this year.. freeze thaw freeze thaw freeze thaw...

But ive never hit one like that before... i had88 Lebaron back when i was 18, hit one hard enough to move the spring out of location on the rear axle, but that was fairly easy to move back...

I should have her back on the road tonight.. we'll see how long it will take me after work.. at least i have access to 3 garages, so the weather wont be an issue
