Default Grape Crusher is back

My pickup was hit in the rear by an 82 year old non-english speaking woman. She had insurance to pay for the $7,000 damage. The custom shop gave me a gift and paid for some pinstriping. Today I drove the rig home very gently and am pleased with the repair work which makes the pickup better than when I did it. Professionals are worth using.

Ya', just think of how much damage might have been done if she was driving a car.

You're lucky she had insurance. Just wait until they start to issue more licenses to illegals in this state. The inmates are in charge of the asylum!

Same here in Vermont TJ, kinda makes me wonder what the legislators definition of the word "illegal" is. We're going to run out of people with income before long!
I never met a Barner who didn't know what a days work was, even after "retirement".
Glad it worked out Roger. I think you're very lucky.

They should be required to read and speak English and pass a drivers test with signs written in English.

Watch the special on Cuba on Public TV and see what this administrations Tax and give away policies will eventually lead our country too. Detroit is a good starting example.

Fortunately nobody was hurt except I got a nasty bump on the head. Had so many of those over the years it was no big deal. The poor lady could only respond with " what happened ". she kept repeating that over and over again. She should not be driving. Am glad I was moving or it would have been much worse.
