    What a day...

    First, I find a puddle of ATF under my car, turns out my steering rack suddenly decided to spring a leak the size of niagra falls...

    Go to pop my hood, and I see someone has been so nice as to redecorate my hood with some nice key marks up and down both sides and the middle...

    Later in the day, I reach to my back pocket for my wallet and.. what the.. no wallet

    I seem to have lost my wallet with 200 dollars and my social security card in it...

    After back tracking over everywhere ive been today, i still have no wallet...

    Im going to bed, hoping Ill wake up and this will all be a bad nightmare...

      you on a job interview or just carry every card you get in your wallet? never carry your ssn unless you're going to the bank, dmv, job interview or somewhere you need it.


      How can I protect my Social Security number?
      You should treat your Social Security number as confidential information and avoid giving it out unnecessarily. You should keep your Social Security card in a safe place with your other important papers. Do not carry it with you unless you need to show it to an employer or service provider.

        so, my girlfriend just called me
        turns out the wallet was turned into the police
        someone found it on the side of the road
        i apparently dropped it when placing signs for a garage sale today

        anyways, they brought it to my girlfriends house because her ID was in my wallet, and it was found near her house

        the reason i had my SS card in my wallet was that i recently had to apply for a new ID, because well... because i lost my old one...

        anyways, this doesnt fix my other problems, but it definitley made a horrible day into a pretty good one

        im just amazed someone turned it in, with all the money that was in it

        really restores my faith in people

              Damn never see the money still in it anymore...ur lucky. Shoudn't be a hard fix due to the simplicity of the system so don't fret. And with the hood it just gives you a new reason to get a carbon fiber one or a fresh new pain job. But seriously should just come out with some rubbing compound and a nice buff. Things will get better:D

                  WOW. That must be one hell of a steering rack. Give me your address, I will come punch you in the face for 10 bucks.

                    Is it your time of the month, or do you like to enlarge your e-penis by randomly raging a guy who's had a shitty day?

                      thanks for the suport

                      havent figured anything out with the steering rack yet
                      anyone know of one for cheap?

                      as far as the hood
                      me and my dad have been talking about just respraying the whole car
                      the car is in overall pretty good shape
                      but ive got alot of lil dings dents and scratches
                      and itd be nice to just get rid of all that
                      and im pretty confident we can do a decent job of respraying a white car

                      thanks everybody
