Leaving New York, $1500 Poorer

So what started out as a $20 oil change eventually turned into a $1500 job to fix my car. I stumbled out of the dealership, pale white and in a daze, wondering if this is what it must have felt like to have the life force vacu-sucked out of you by The Mummy, right before…

How I got snowed by an old lady
