Here were some of the rejected headlines for my last post:
"Memo to self, NEVER use the hood of your car as a table when mixing Mentos and Diet Pepsi."
"Always check the references of someone you hire to paint flames on your car."
"Always make sure the person you hire to paint flames on your car speaks very good English."
"So! How was your day?"
"The celebrations around here when the local youth soccer teams win the championship can get a little out of hand."
Here's the real story, LMFAO. I was driving to Golden Coral to pick up breakfast. It started smoking as I neared the parking lot, so I parked in an isolated corner away from everything else in case I needed it towed. The smoking got worse, and then it started flaming out. So I cancelled my call to AAA and called 911 instead. By the time the fire trucks arrived it was fucking totaled, man. Engine all burned to shit, windshield melted in. They put it out and reckoned it was something to do with the fuel injection or whatever. That and old age. It had 186,000 miles on it.
What really pisses me off is by the time this was all over, Golden Coral's breakfast hours were over. GODDAMMIT!!!

I was a little worried, I admit. I am glad you are ok, I'd be pissed too if breakfast was over after all that mess.
First, I'm glad you were injured..
Second, missing breakfast and still having a totaled car completely sucks!!!

We are happy that you are ok...you should have told the Corral that you had a pregnant wife...always worked for me.
Thanks guys. It was a very weird experience. My first time with uncontrolled fire of any kind.
