I am alrite, old man had some chess pains, but he opp not to go to the ER. SO i guess he is alrite.<p>Anyway, i was suppose to be heading to a the only good thing to happen to me in a while, to a job interview for the new plant in Elmira. <p>Last nite i did not get any sleep, cause you know how it goes when you have stuff on your mind, money, Car, School, Car getting broken into by a some JACK@@@. Well i did not sleep too good.<p>So anyway, i got up and had a coffee and got dressed and left to go to my interview. <p>Not even on the road 3 minutes, i got a stop sign, and kinda did a what i like to call the old Quebec stop. Slowed down looked left and right and go. Well I guess i did not see over a high snow bank and not even 2 seconds into the lane and *SMACK* and around in circles i go. Smacked my head off the window and that is about it. <p>Totally front damage. Radiator and fender (KN FILTER SQUISHED) and crap like that. I think it is a wirte off, which is going to #### me over rite now, as i am broke and can't afford anything.<p>Adjuster said that owner of the yard that my car is being held at said it might be saveable depending how much the insurance is willing to pay. So insurance is sending a broker over tomorrow to look and then i will get the verdict. <p>Now on the up side. I talked to a Salesman from them lot next door from the guy i bought the car, he said that if it does get Written off, to come see him, and he will be able to talk to the ajuster on my behalf and explain the value of my car, as he was one the First salesman in guelph to sell the MX-3 when they came out. The black book value might say 4G but he should be able to get me a 7G to 8G. In return though i have to deal with him for my next car, and i told not a problem.<p>My insurance though will not change, even though i will go to a 5 star driver, but if i get a truck, like a ranger or f-150 or s-10, my insurance will drop a lot.<p>Plus i am getting a new stereo and speakers for free also. Cause of what got stolen. <p>So hopefully everything goes good, as i still want the car, but either way if not it looks like i should do ok.<p>
Any way long enough story. I will let you know how things go tomorrow.<p>

Well, the adjuster called and asked the towing yard wether it was worth towing to a body shop and get an estimate and the yard said no, so they sent an adjuster to go look. <p>When the adjuster looked he choose to have it towed to a body shop. So i am hoping, i am going to get lucky. And they will fix it.<p>;-)<p>Iain
