Good morning all. It was a busy week had to go to Metaldyne Twinsburg OH. plant this last week its an overnight trip.

Hope to hang with wifey and mom today and just chill. Mom is not having such a good week-end confused and emotional. Wish I could just put her up on the hoist and see what's wrong like I do the Deuce (LOL kind of )

She does have a doctor's appt. coming up (doctor and I will have a heart to heart) Dr. Lassard is a gearhead too so we have some great talks (although his toys are more expensive than mine )

Hope you all have a great Sunday!

OH yea BIG news Ronda is taking the Post Office early out incentive and will RETIRE Jan 31, 2013

Good mornin' all. There's nothing exciting going on around here today. I'm just sitting here sippin' my coffee, watching car shows on TV and checkin' out the forum. Jennifer, how in the world did the inner fenderwell puncture your tire? That really sucks...hope you get it fixed quickly so you can go to the show. Enjoy your day everyone!

Good morning everyone. So I stayed up til 1:00am, having an absolute anxiety attack, watching the Tigers, or "Valverde", blow a 4-0 lead in the bottom of the 9th, then hold out for the next two innings and come back in the top of the 12th with two runs and win 6-4. I can't even imagine if we lost that game but at least we toughed it out and came out on top after all that. I don't know why we continue to use Valverde as closer when he is so freakin' unreliable as of late. Blew a win for us against Oakland in the ALDS. I know Jimmy Leyland stays committed to his guys, and I respect him for that, but there's a point when you have to realize it's going to screw us at some point. Dotel looked great relief pitching for Valverde and Smyly was amazing as closer. Nice job to our bullpen for saving Valverde's mess. And if all that wasn't enough, Yankees heart and soul Derek Jeter fractures his ankle during the 12th inning. I mean, some game that was.

I didn't have fasteners at the time when I did my brakes...the small plastic cover to the engine bay to the left of the fender well was hanging by a string. I'm assuming because of vibration & airflow the small string snapped & let the plastic move.
It looks like my tire rubbed against it enough to make it pointed, and as I turned into work it hit the tire again. punctured it just above the sidewall...
