a small accident...

    well i decided to let a freind try and drive my jeep. she never driven a stick before so we went to a school parking lot. she did fine for someone starting although i was moving the shifter for her, but she panicked and ran straight into a dumpster. the right side of my bumper is basically at a 90 degree angle inwards luckily the leaf spring did not come in contact but the fender and the front part above the fender is all dented up and the passenger door wont shut the right way and i dont know if this is a big deal or not but it drives fine thou.

    Ouch, that sucks.

    Hey you better get some nay nay out of it or something. I was at at friend's last weekend and some broad I hardly knew thought it would be funny to take my XJ for a spin around the block. I was stupid and left my keys in there. Hell no, that's no joke to me. Anywho, no good man, have fun with that.

    Why'd someone have to go and put a dumpster right where she happened to be driving?! That was pretty inconsiderate. Hope she's good looking. FYI, I happen to be selling a bumper in the "for sale" forum.

    When engaged in conversation with a fool, be sure he is not similarly engaged.
