Nice mask DR GEORGE.

Thanks, Jrand!

Battery vibes for MR BK.

I thought you got a new battery not too long ago - or was that the other car?

If it was THIS car, maybe there is a warranty.....my battery warranty is good for a 5-year replacement if it goes bad.

That's what I was wondering. $:-\$

I saw that BJ's gas price was $1.84 yesterday. What did I report a week or so ago, $1.70-something? So it's just about up to what I paid for my March 19th fill, of which I still have a quarter of a tank. And we thought that was low. Now it seems a little high!

Wow. I just got gas a couple of days ago and it was $2.399.

There've been battery issues before but not replacing it - that's been over three years now.

Ahh.

Thank you for the recommendation Cilla, I’ll check it out

I am completely exhausted. I don't think I'm sick, but I have absolutely no energy today.

A flat brown pigmentation on my right firearm has mutated into shades of red and grown asymmetrically so I am going to have it looked at

vixmom · « **Reply #41 on:** June 17, 2020, 10:34:18 AM »

Just in case....

Well, not gonna be here at eleven - while I was doing a phone update they called and said they didn't have the battery in stock. That's because the gal called the same person as last night and I'd told her already those folks didn't have it. So, now they have to do what they should have done originally - call around and find it and THEN send someone - so I didn't have to get up when I got up and I'm sure they'll now tell me it will be after noon IF they find the battery. The problem, of course, is that many stupid people in LA never bothered to start their cars during the stay at home, so there were a lot of dead batteries and probably a run on them now that they can drive places. They should be calling back shortly.

BK, maybe you should release a CD of Spivy with that other bizarre cabaret singer Bricktop?

Bricktop was a friend of Cole Porter’s.

Take as many as you need, Vixmom. That would make me nervous.

Well, this has turned into a really stupid thing. No AAA stores have the battery nor can they guarantee when they'll get it, since shipments are slow. Their alternative plan is to tow my car to someplace I find that has the battery, where it will not only most likely cost me more money AND labor, but will also probably not come with a proper warranty. I did find a place - where I had the engine replaced and they said if I tow it there they can find the battery and have it done in an hour. My concern is they can't quote the price till they have the car and I'm not comfortable bringing it there to find out that it's so much money that I don't want to do it.

bk · « **Reply #51 on:** June 17, 2020, 11:07:34 AM »

Bottom line is - not gonna do it. Which means, I cannot go anywhere until AAA gets the battery, which could be DAYS.

So, the siding man was over to talk paint colors. He brought the two I had mentioned, and of course, they looked nothing like they did on the computer. Instead of gray with a blue undertone, they were green with a gray undertone.

I got my last car battery from AAA. Before that, it was Walmart. They were good. I was surprised.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #54 on:** June 17, 2020, 11:16:21 AM »

Ever since I had a battery cable problem due to a guy at an auto supplies store installing it wrong, I've only purchased my batteries at a dealer, or at a Firestone or Sears type of store where they at least know what they're doing on stuff like that. In all cases, though, I was able to drive the car so I didn't need AAA.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #55 on:** June 17, 2020, 11:25:00 AM »

Do you have to install a Walmart battery yourself? Or do some Walmarts have an auto service area?

bk · « **Reply #56 on:** June 17, 2020, 11:33:44 AM »

I just talked to the folks that were here last night - they're supposed to have it in tomorrow and will call me so I can call AAA to have them come here and install. I'll be fine until tomorrow.

bk · « **Reply #57 on:** June 17, 2020, 11:40:44 AM »

So glad I got up early to deal with this. Not.
