11. I spent $220 last month and it didn't even fix what I took it in for
Mechanics are just like doctors. They practice their trade. If that don't work then we'll try this...

15. As soon as the repugs start strip-mining the Rockies for oil shale...
...they promise gas will instantly drop a buck and then we can go drive and see the mountains one last time before they're gone to waste

17. Quite. Given quality of recent, it's cheaper to walk to the local grocer...
to buy the smaller quantity, rather than to throw it out. (Jul 29, my butt. Half of the lettuce was already spoiled. I'll let you know if I vomit later on.)

18. I was gonna guess you spent it on a vet bill!
those surprise vet bills can sure be heartbreaking :cry:

Try to think of the insurance as saving you money in case something big goes wrong and you have to use it.

19. That would be cheaper than some of our vet bills
2004 was a very sad and very bad year for us as far as pets. We spent $3000 that year on vet bills for all our pets and we lost our big lubby-dubby dog too.
