The gym still has not credited back the $20 they should not have charged.

So I'm driving through a 30 zone, doing 28 behind some d-bag in a little VW station wagon. We both take the next right turn, onto a road that is two lanes for about a thousand feet, then merges. The road is officially marked 35, most people do 40-45. VW goes for the first lane, I go wide and take the second, open it up. The guy realizes I'm trying to pass him, and floors it. We end up neck and neck doing 50+ approaching the merge point. I give up, because we've run right up behind the next vehicle ahead of us, and end up stuck behind the VW... who goes back to a placid couple MPH under the speed limit.

Cliffs: VW driver is a colossal prick.

Conclusions:
1) Both of us were speeding
2) You are not supposed to interfere with passing
3) If I'd had a G, I would've smoked his ass.

There's a contest at a local Mazda dealership. Prizes are as follows.
1) $25,000 cash
2) 2011 Mazda 6 (MSRP ~$23,680)
3) 3 gold coins
4) $100 cash

The car is probably the four cylinder edition, the V6 would go for another 5-6 grand.

The invite I got was a winner... so what the hell, I guess I get something.

 

[MotF Bane]

Scratch that, the V6 is another 8 grand. Over 30k for a Mazda.

I'm sorry, but is anyone going to pay 30k for a Mazda?

 

[MotF Bane]

It's a nice car, I really do like how their cars feel/handle, but they're pricing themselves out of the market.

 

[MotF Bane]

Also, the new Mazda 6 is large and ugly. The older one was more compact and better looking.

 

[MotF Bane]

I can't say the Mazda3Speed is attractive either, four cylinders are not appealing, but I think I'd prefer that to a new Mazda6.

Let's see... vacation for the first week of July. That'll mean taking off 5, 6, 7, and 8. Thus, I'll have about eight or nine days off.

 

[MotF Bane]

Traffic is gonna be a bitch, but oh well.

Then the calculus bullshit.

 

[MotF Bane]

July 25 to August 12, five days a week, 9 AM to 11 AM.

Fuck.

 

[zzuupp]

Dell has decided they have a service appointment at my house from 1-5 PM this afternoon.

They never emailed me. They never called me, until today, at 10 AM, to say the appointment is today.

I can't use online tech support, because my service tag is at home, and because XPS isn't covered online.

They hung up from the phone when I said I couldn't provide my service tag.

 

[MotF Bane]

Dell's site account does not show I have any open support tickets.

 

[MotF Bane]

Guess I need to find out if it was a live call or a robocall that my sister answered this morning, and get my service tag. *sigh* I'm really tempted to just say fuck it and let them screw around, and call when I get home.

 

[MotF Bane]

Got through.

 

[MotF Bane]

On hold again. Unisys is involved.
