Be thankful for bad luck



Hey, Y'all,

"If it weren't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all."

Three weeks ago, as I was turning into my church's parking lot my droF
Ranger was sideswiped by a rapidly moving foreign object.  (The foreign
object was an early 4K - with NO INSURANCE!!!)  Hit and run!!

Believe it or not, I  chased him down with that Ranger.  :-)  He paid to
have the truck fixed.  Not a lot of damage, but it didn't have a scratch
before that.  I picked up the truck from the body shop on Friday morning
before heading to DC for my son's birthday that evening.

Saturday, in Arlington, VA, I stopped for a stoplight behind about 5 other
vehicles in my '89 200TQ (on Glebe Road at Walter Reed for you DC-types).
The three cars behind me didn't stop.  Oh, well...  Here we go again.

Amazingly little visible damage appears.  I drove the car back home to WV
(350 miles or so).  Now we fight insurance companies.
