This is like a career ending injury for a keyboard commando.

Lucky you aren't that guy setting some record of pocking his index finger through coconuts.

So are you bailing or just going to deal with the car troubles after the game?

May I ask where you got the furniture? We've been looking for some stuff and the pieces you have suits our taste.

I got it from Overstock.com. I think I earned 6 miles per dollar spent at the time which gave me about ~12K onepass miles :D

It looks like they have everything but the 4-drawer chest at this time.

I have never spent $2k on furniture without seeing it in person before, but all the reviews were great so I went for it and I love this furniture set. It is very solid, none of that Ikea crap.

WARNING… It does not come fully assembled, for everything I purchased it was shipped in something like 9 or 10 boxes and they arrived at all different times, so I could not even start to assemble everything until I received all the boxes. It took me about 12 hours over two days to put it all together.

Axium Espresso 4-drawer Chest

Axium Espresso 6-drawer Dresser I paid $429. Today it's $379.99 :rolleyes:

Axium Espresso 1-drawer Nightstand

Axium Espresso Queen-size Bed

Axium Espresso Armoire

Just called my service guy and he seems to think that I just ran the battery down -- gonna look for a jump before I decide to bail.

Push start the car if it is a stick shift - if possible.

Position the car at the top of a hill, or have people push the car.
Depress the clutch completely.
Put the car in second gear.
Turn the ignition to on (not start).
Let go of the brakes. Keep the clutch depressed. You'll start coasting down the hill or moving due to people pushing.
Let go of the clutch quickly when the speed reaches 5 miles per hour. The engine should turn and start. If it doesn't, try depressing and releasing the clutch again.
