INSURANCE SUX!!!
If you have been following my pictures, you probably know how an apartment complex gate closed on my truck. http://www.johnstrunk.com/blogger/2008/02/24/gawdamn-gate/ Well my insurance just called me to tell me I am liable now for the gate and the damage to the truck because I went through the "Exit" gate even if it was open and that there is a sign that displays "Not Liable For Injuries or Damage". There also, supposedly, is a sign on the other entrance (down the hill to the right) that states "Entrance Only". Now look at this photo above of the gate, locked open I might add, and tell me how you are supposed to know this is an "Exit" gate. Again do note, I did NOT follow anyone into the complex, it was locked open like it is now and it closed on me as I entered. I also see no non-liability sign. I am beyond mad right now. (please note I did erase the street number off this picture)

Super Clean Truck
I took this truck to get cleaned at the Alamo Auto Spa. They did quite a good job I think.

Satellite Radio Install
This install took longer than I had hoped for, but I LOVE Sirius Satellite Radio! The suction cup mount actually fit perfectly inside this slot.

Satellite Radio Install
This install took longer than I had hoped for, but I LOVE Sirius Satellite Radio! Yeah I know it looks kinda ghetto now, but I am experimenting first with the antennae placement before making it permanent.

Good Luck Lauren!
The lady on the left is Lauren and that is Melissa on the right. I think Rodney took this picture. I have had the privilege of working with Lauren for the last three years. Lauren is off to new adventures and I have no doubt will be a huge success. Good luck Lauren! We are pulling for you and I miss you already!

Lori Dies
Lori dies. I managed to find a replacement battery and it appeared I had her resurrected. It required quite a bit of doing, including some not too pleasant soldering action. She managed to regain life and work for another two and a half days. Something blew in the power supply unrelated to the battery replacement. This produced a sad puff of smoke. It turned out to be a part I could not replace. The final poof of smoke indicated the ghost in the shell was gone. She passed away for the last time, September 27th 2008. This is to you Lori, the best girlfriend I ever had.

Rackspace Mini Cooper
Rackspace gave this Mini Cooper away to a lucky person in a drawing. The contestants were those who refereed new employees. If I recall correctly, it says "I won this car for referring brilliant people for Rackspace!"

Ugly Mug Coffee
Noticed this at the supermarket. The expressions of the people on these bags are hilarious. Literally they are of "ugly mugs" and that "just got out the bed" look. This is some smart advertising!

Interesting Tool
I never knew this tool existed. It is designed to paint a perfect line with just a regular can of spray paint. I am intrigued by its simplicity.

My New Couch - Expensive!
I learned my lesson. Never ask a woman for her opinion about furniture, she ends out always picking the most expensive in the list of choices. This is what happened here. Gave a list of possible couches I was looking at to my mom for a second opinion and she picks this one. So did every other female I asked to pick from the list. *sigh* I do love this couch though, so I bought it anyway. You womens be killing me with your expensive taste!

My New 46 inch TV, Samsung LN46A650
So after 3 years of using a 14 inch TV, I pulled the trigger and bought a new TV. This is the new TV, the Samsung LN46A650. This is actually the second one I had delivered which replaced the one that the delivery guys damaged in transit (this is not the damaged one photographed here). Finally I get to enjoy the present I gave myself!

My Old "Hi-Def" Toshiba TV
No one believes that I been solely using this TV for the last 3 years. It is a 14 inch widescreen tube HD TV (480i). The Sprite can is in this picture to give size reference.

My New TV DOA!
So I waited 3 years to buy a TV to replace my crappy 14 inch tube TV. When I finally pulled the trigger on this new Samsung LN46A650, the delivery guys damage it in transit! At least it was exchanged for a new one a week later by the vendor.

Killer Balloons!
Man, I haven't seen these since I was little, back in the 80's, and even then it was freaking dangerous! Look at all the warnings! I remember the fumes would make you dizzy it was some really nasty stuff. You really want your kids to play with flammable fume producing toys in their mouth?! They still sell this stuff?! Unbelievable!
