And don't monkey around with the last train to Clarksville.

I see what you did there Al.
I was going to head to Boston, but I was too late.

Is she a railroad lady? A little bit shady?
I think I can, I think I can.

Not exactly a train wreck, but close enough.
My Mini Cooper's at the dealership having the FRM, aka "footwell monitor," replaced under warranty. Service guy texted me saying one of my front parking lights is out, which I already knew, and offering to replace it for $58.35. I've replaced it before. Its a regular sort of bulb and about three minutes of labor. I politely but firmly declined to have them do the job.

I hear you.
After two weeks and two pretty handy dudes looking at my very simple yet very clogged kitchen sink plumbing, using snakes and bladders (sounds like a board game!) and nasty chemicals, I had to finally call out a plumber. I think his price for unclogging the very deep blockage was fair, but then he offered to replace one of the little PVC connectors and a gasket since it was leaking a little (destroyed due to being taken apart 500 times in two weeks lol).
I said nice, how much?
$210.
Two hundred and ten effing dollars, I asked.
Yes.
No thanks. I went to the neighbors later for a beer and he had the parts lying around in his garage. Free fifty free.
Even if I'd have purchased them at the hardware I couldn’t have been looking at much more than a couple bucks haha. I tell ya...
