    You are learning quickly.



    So - besides Keith being sick and a couple of gun parts shipping today? Anything else happen today?

    Robert - how's your Mom doing?

    Thanks for asking. She is doing good. She has slight back pain, so she'll probably go to the dr.

    Now just the insurance and body shop. Does anybody know about compensation for the diminished value due to the wreck?

    Hell yeah I know about diminished value.... I got a $1k check from All State because my truck lost value from being rear ended. That was just because I called back and asked for it. If I had went through the entire second check and re-evaluation process I might have gotten a little more.

    Either way it is worth the effort.

    Pass on the Kimber. What are you looking for - a 45 ACP 1911?

    Cool thanks for the info, glad someone had experience With it, seems like nobody trys to get the value. I've been telling my dad about it for my moms car, because I'm sure resale value is gone.

    how do you get the rear shocks to stop squeaking? they are OME, but I dont think that matters. I think its that rubber washer on the top that is making the noise.

    I'm not familiar with the STI; but I know I'll never own a Kimber. You should be able to get a real nice 1911 for $1k.

    Tell him to call or text me when he gets a chance; it is a pretty easy argument with the insurance company. Think of the mods you could get for the 4Runners with the extra cash! :D

    Just got done with the first night of Citizen police acedemy. Was pretty cool. Did you know you can do ride-a-longs with any police department if you signed a waiver and they scheduled it ?
