  1. Thank you sir for your educated accessment of qualifications. Bottom line.. This shit happens all the time. Brake Places are the WORST about this sort of thing. You are correct I havent seen the estimate.. but driving with the brakes grinding for Two weeks usually mean new Rotors.. So add an extra $100 and extra 10 Minutes to change them while changing the pads.. P.S. No I am not an ASE Mechanic.. Just a measly IE that worked in Industrial Maintenance for 15 years designing and building manufacturing equipment. But growing up.. Between My Fathers Race Teams and My Mothers Dealerships.. I just might have been around a shop or two. OH.... And then were those 10 years I raced myself building my own cars. You dont need a ASE cert to understand a brake system.
  2. Same way I sit here as a Master asshole laughing at what Some Mechanics try to get away with. Last couple conversation I had with "Master mechanics" at shop where I took my car when I didn’t have time to deal with myself... were beyond hilarious.. Sorry but $1,200 for a 2 to 3 hour job that just about any reasonably intelligent monkey could do is nuts.
  3. ANY Music. Not just Live. Like I said. as a DJ, Playing recorded music that I bought and paid for.. I still had to pay ASCAP because I was playing it in a Public place. Technically if you have Music playing at your DZ, ASCAP "COULD" come after the DZ. They probably would not but they technically could.
  4. You are too short to even worry about making fun of. Just waaaaay too easy (Kinda like some of the women on here!!)
  5. She just be hatin.. Dont waste no love on her.
  6. Just hit alt-F4 to reset everyting back.
  7. You just shush and bring me my damn sammich Woman. Dont make me show you the pimp hand.
  8. I recognize you abouts to git played!! Now step back before you gets hurt little girl.
  9. I got yo Back Hippie. Take her down!
  10. Not complaining about that at all. Actually we are all (The Georgia Crowd anyway) actually quite happy about that.
  11. Two times even!! yep that`ll do. How long before you get here?
  12. The entertainment factor for today has been about a 3 on a 1-10 scale. The post whoring today is truly lacking. I need to see some of you step it up a knotch. I am getting bored enough that I actually tried to find some work to do. Luckily I failed at that... Sooooo.. Who has a Funny story or Boobie Pic or something that will occupy my mind for a few seconds?
  13. I used to have to deal with this crap when I DJed strip clubs.. Let me guess.. It is ASCAP and/or BMI threatening to sue you?? The reality is "It is against the law" to play copywritten music in ANY public place (whether you charge to get in or not) unless you pay ASCAP and/or BMI for the right to do so. This money is distributed to the original song writers. I know some of the Clubs I worked at had to pay between $1200 and $4000 per year to be able to legally play music.
  14. Get a second opinion. Chain Brake shops will almost always try to upsell you repairs you do not need. If the cylinder is really leaking.. Get it looked at immediately. Just to give you an idea of the Real costs involved: Brake Pads: $30 NEW Aftermarket Rotors: $41ea (Total $82) Driver side caliper - $35 Passenger side Caliper - $35 (Both Calipers have a $18 core charge so you will get $36 back if you return the old calipers to the store) Say 2 Hours Labor at $90 per hour -$180 Toss in a $20 Shop Supply Charge.. Now if is the master Cylinder that is leaking.. ($59 for a rebuilt Master Cylinder from Autozone BTW) Labor may cost a little more. Sounds like they are really trying to take you for a ride.
  15. Absolutely. What kind of car?? And did you take it to a "Just Brakes"?? They are the absolute worst when it comes to rip offs. They were actually Banned from several states because of thier deceptive and fraudulent practices.
  16. Its one sturdy Deck!! Only the BEST Wood!
  17. I just happen to have an Incredibly Big Deck. The Biggest Deck on the DZ. You should come play on it some time.
  18. Come on everyone.... "Hi Cassandra" Welcome to the meeting.
  19. Hi. Your sigline reminds me of my favorite saying: If at first you dont succeed... Suck, Suck, Suck till you do Suck Seed!!
  20. Jump on in.. The waters fine. Just ignore the all the little fins circling, They are completely harmless.
