I guess my bad day could have been worse, all I did was snap a u-joint. Glad you're okay man. Good luck on the job mayne.

You couldve given more details, mark. we're all sitting here confused :lol:

Speakin of bad days: I attempted to change out my u-joints 2 days ago. Didnt go so well. had to make 4 trips to o'reillys due to broken caps and rental tools. the old ones were damn near rust welded on :facepalm: At least the squeak is gone now.

Wow, idiot

...and this confirms why Mondays will ALWAYS suck.

glad your ok man...yeah half of the people in N.O cant fn drive..thats why i cant stand going out there. but wrecks are everywhere an stupid people are everywhere. i hate idiot drivers

I was in the N.O. Area for 10 months(LaPlace to be exact). And yes, they have the most horrible drivers in the whole North American continent. I don't think they know what a turn signal is.
