Oh here we go jumping to worse and worse case scenarios. Let's start with checking the choke and then move on from there.
Oh wait! I know. He needs to change his tranny and diff fluids. How could we have missed that after all those threads.

Oh, yes, if the automatic choke fix or the idle adjustment doesn't fix it up .....since his old carb sits unused a lot ....... we can get into it further .....

I'm sure the landlord would pay for a lock set and allow him to install it ......

Cole in action .........

She pays over a thousand dollars a month in rent. I'm not lifting a fucking finger to fix ANY issues in this shoe box. Her landlord is a lazy piece of shit.

Well, that $1,000 would get you about 2 weeks rent in these parts.

I hope your GF's renters insurance is paid up ....... now that you have advertised to the world, how to get into that apartment .........

Reminds me of then time, back in Missouri, that I sat up all night on the couch, with my 30-30 and .45 waiting for this ass hole to show up, that said he was on his way to kill me.

I must have polished off a quart of whisky that night ......

That is what you get for living in the Canadian version of Beverly Hills. My mortgage is a little over half that a month.

Well, in her words, "if I want to be successful, I have to go to school here" my response was "if you were going to be successful, you wouldn't need to go to school, you've already missed your shot"

How long ago did you buy your house though?


My mortgage is only slightly more than his GFs rent.

14 years ago. Houses in London are way cheaper then where Cole lives. My house cost $115K here when I bought it. In Cole's neck of the woods it would have been $400K even back then.

I'm looking at buying in Sarnia. Still need to decide if I'm going back to school or not, though, before I buy a house.
