Is this your first NOTHING violation?

I'm home from work. Well actually I never made it to work and my husband would probably beg to differ with your assessment of me being on the ball today.

As I was driving on the interstate to work I had a blow out on my front driver's side tire. Yes, the same place the darn deer are attracked to and while I was driving in the hammer lane no less. I actually had no idea what was going on. I heard a strange noise and as I was proceeding to slow down to move across 3 lanes of traffic to get onto the berm, I thought my brakes weren't working right at first. Once I got control of the car and got it off the road to take a look, I saw my tire was torn to shreds. I was expecting NOTHING like that because my tires were not that old and still in good shape! My next thought was to cry like a girl from the scare but I pulled it together called AAA first then my husband. I pondered calling the police too because I had no idea how the guy from AAA was going to take care of my tire without getting killed - the berm was not very wide, the traffic was very heavy, and the wind was blowing like a son of a gun today. In fact the other side of the interstate was all backed up because a tree had fallen across all 3 lanes. What a day - so I called into work with a case of hysteria. Anyway, all's well that ends well - nobody got killed and Costco took excellent care of me as usual. Now if I can only stay out of trouble on here........

Oh, and by the way, the tire that blew out was NOT from Costco - don't want to give them a bad rap. In fact, I think I'll be getting my tires from them from here on out.

Sorry, fw, that you're still having NOTHING but trouble over that desk. What a frustrating situation. My husband and I went to small claims court twice - once over an issue with the restoration of his Corvette and the other over tenants. Of course, it was up north here and so long ago that I don't remember how costly it was to do so. Hope you find a way to get your money back. It seems like it would be a pretty straight forward case. I'm surprised the furniture place would even let it get this far. Bad business it seems.

It's NOTHING but crappy not having a keyboard drawer. I should have refused delivery of it but did not want to wait another 3 months and believed that they would take care of it.

I think that car is NOTHING but cursed. Time to turn it in for a Yamaha Quite Tech.. Glad you were able to get off to the side of the road safely.

I was going to watch the Procrastinating Video but decided to do it next week.

I am outta my NOTHING but flipping mind about tire pressure. Every Monday almost without fail all tires checked and adjusted as needed. It's only because we are all betting our very lives on a simple issue. Drivers side rear 30 lbs last Monday, 16 lbs today, could have been tragic.

Those Stinkers upsetting FW just suck. How dare they take the money and not complete the mission. I'm NOTHING but ferclempteded.

All well here. Got Best Buy to take back the Bozo Toshiba Television in record time. Truthfully I can't believe they did it but when I mentioned that The Verifiable fact with proof in hand that The Geeks Disconnected calls without help and then Toshiba never answered the phone (No Proof) and I tried daily for over a month. They acted as they did me a favor. NOT. Anyway, I am settling all family business and it feels great. 3/4's of my desk is clear. Got a Sharp.

Glad everybody is good. How're things elsewhere? Haven't looked since noon I think!

It was on my list to watch a couple of hours ago but it hasn't happened yet. Nothing good comes to he (or she) who waits.

Why do today what you could put off until tomorrow? If I finished everything I had to do today I would have NOTHING to do tomorrow..
