I got in a car accident last night.
Holy crap it's YOU!

I'm fine, the guy I hit is fine..... everybody's fine..... my truck however.... not so much.

My brakes went out on the interstate... ended up hitting some guy's truck...

Oh and by the way guys.... uhh tow trucks are fucking expensive.

It cost me $248 to just get my truck home.

And Tea, I'm really glad that at least you're okay. Really sorry to hear about your truck, though....

When I first moved down here my roommate's car broke down.... Five days after being down here. He called triple A to get a tow truck and the tow truck guy ended up not hooking up his car right and when the flatbed stopped... my roommate's car didn't.. and slammed into the back of the cab.

I was talking to the tow truck driver that picked up my truck and I mentioned the company that my roommate used (American Wrecker) and as soon as I said the name he started laughing. He said "Yea, just about all those companies that work with Triple A are sad companies."

...Would you trust a company named "Wrecker" to take care of your stuff?

Vid may very well be coming. I might have somebody tape it during our presentation.

By the way, this and the picture I requested are for a group research project on 80s Pop Culture. Fun!

I hate to burst your bubble, but from what I've seen the picture actually came from 1991.

Regardless though, it is a good example of the 80s at it's best. (or worst depending on your mindset.)

Well the other day the tow truck driver that messed up my roommate's car (Shane) text messaged him and said that his car had been stolen.

My roomie got in contact with the cops to file a police report... what looks like what ended up happening is that Shane put the car on bricks in a strip club parking lot and left it. He told my roomie that it was being fixed but he was just waiting for it to be taken. Shane removed the licence plate from the car too.

The cops told my roommate that the car had been impounded back in April.

We did some research on American Wrecker Towing and Repair LLC and found out that it's a business that Shane's aunt owns, Shane is her only employee.

And even after all of this we're going to try to abuse my roommate's situation to get them to send a tow truck for my truck to get it to a shop. The front end of my truck is already messed up... so I'm not too worried.

Damn, that's a pretty messed up situation to say the least.

Well, back a couple of months ago I mentioned my workout program to prepare for the PFT. Well, there are a few updates I've done to it.

Upper Body:
Pyramid Pushup/Pullup system: Ascending from 1 to 7 decending back down to 1.

Abs/Core:
Ab Ripper X program using 40 reps instead of 25.
160 standard crunches
160 bicycle crunches
2 minute Ab Plank (Warning, this ab workout program is psychotic to the point where those who don't build up to it barely can stand afterwards.)

Lower Body/Cardio:
Rotate between biking, long distance running, sprints, and DDR!
