What's for dinner?

Traumatic for the girl?

I was parked outside a shop went inside for milk. Came out got into my car, still parked, did not have time to buckle up and next thing I knew I was flying through the air back inside the shop, me inside my vehicle thinking if my wind shield makes contact with the glass shop front I will be decapitated.

Miracle it stopped short.

Consequently shop was closed for 2 weeks for repairs and my car a write off.

The guy was so pissed he tried to walk away but couldn’t make it.

She’s a beast. Didn’t phase her at all. All the airbags came out like 4 or 5 of them. She didn’t even go to the doctor. X3 has good crash ratings. So 55mph impact and the person inside are fine. The car weighs almost 4000lbs and the panels are steel so its pretty good for crashing. I just picked her up and we went to get some lunch.

The time I sued this same insurance company, a drunk woman hit me head on when I was on a motorcycle, with a huge pickup truck. I went about 90 feet down the road, lost about a pint ot blood, had all my clothes cut off, was strapped to a board, went into shock, got hit with a defibrillator, and did physical therapy 2 times a week for almost 2 years to get my neck and shoulder working right again. Sued the shit out of them. That’s how I got to go to college.

The insurance companies have it all their way. The thing is, if you claim, they up the premium to a ridiculous number.

There was a place on my arm where you could see the bones because so much flesh got ground off me.

I’ll be dealing with the other guy’s insurance. His rates not mine. If they don’t pay, then I have full coverage on my car, and just qualified for “accident forgiveness” like 2 months ago, so no rate hike there. If neither of them can make me whole, I have a personal attorney in essentially a state if constant retainer who would be glad to work with them and sort it out.

Wow! at least something good came out of. I don’t really like riding on motorcycles, but love the sound of Harleys!

What is accident forgiveness?

Its where you have the same insurance for a long time, then one day they say, “hey you’ve never had an accident, so if you do, we won’t raise your rates”.

You are now their poster child!

BMWs are quite solid cars, I am surprised at the extent of the damage.

The man who shot out into traffic was driving a full sized gmc pickup truck. There were no skid marks from the x3. 55mph speed zone with no lights or stop signs. Massive impact.

Garlic chicken tortellini with tomato chunks smothered in Alfredo sauce, salads, and three cheese Texas toast.

Some kind of spice rubbed chicken with a balsamic reduction, polenta cakes, and 2 gimlets.

Gyros and sweet corn on the cob.

Spicy pork chops, baked potatoes, and more sweet corn on the cob.

I had some thing with these little small pieces of crunchy bread that had bacon jam, sliced rare steak and some bleu cheese crumbles on top, and then I had some little chopped bits of pork rolled in some glaze and some applesauce. Then I went to another restaurant immediately after and had a baked brie.

Chicken thighs and diced potatoes smothered in portabella mushroom gravy and macaroni and cheese.

Hatch green chilis and provolone cheese hamburgers, broccoli and cheddar cheese rice, peaches drizzled over sweet biscuits.
