Random Rants

The title is misleading: the money I think is buried in Fargo, but the majority of the film takes place (and is shot) in Minnesota, in Brainerd and Minneapolis.

It is–but they are also offended by the char(icatures)acters, especially the Brainerd hussies! I think they're hilarious!

All scores in bar one… Straights A's across the board.... One more and I'm ready for summer break
well done lad! now pass the last one and reward yourself with some IH
Done! 4.0 cumulative GPA still!!! And… I rewarded myself a little early (2 days ago my Banglu came in and i ordered my type III brown duck
), I knew that no matter what I got on the finals that there was a minimal chance I would not make all A's. <--- this is not me being arrogant, I just have busted my ass all semester to make sure I was set. If I had to pick my weak point in school, I would say it is test taking.. I get test anxiety bad sometimes no matter how well I know the criteria. Thanks for all the kind words everyone! -
Thanks again snowman, raf, g&p, seancono, rocket, seul and everyone (hope I remembered all the well wishers!). Really appreciate all the positive vibrations!

Excuse the ferocity of the following rant but anyone else had any experience with Fedex or DHL? What a bunch of useless c**ts!!!! I got a card through last thursday saying they'd popped by at 11am and no-one was home (not an unusual occurrence I would have thought). I telephoned to rearrange another delivery for the next day saying i'd be home 'til 2.15pm. At 11am the next day I checked tracking and it hadn't left the depot. Rang (again - at 10p a minute) to ask where it was. Response: the depot hadn't heard back from you?! Can't pick the parcel up from them…can't see when they can deliver (I work in the week and they don't work weekends and can't tell you if they'll be passing in the morning or afternoon). The worst is that you have to pay extra (via telephone 0800 number) to solve their fuck-ups...ie they make more cash providing a shite service than they do a good one. Unbelievable.
Why can't shops send via the normal post???? I had even worse problems with DHL (driver signed in my name and left the IH jawns in front of a neighbors gaff on the 3rd floor, having opened the package?!). UPS seem the only service worth it's salt. Long live the normal Postal service and FUCK couriers I say!!!! -
I could rant all day, and all night about Parcelforce.

fuckin fuck fuck….
wifeys cars clutch thrust bearing gave up... got it back from the shop after almost 1000€ bill, Included oilchanges...After 80 km's that's about 50miles similar noice fom engine compartment, drove it back, tehy checked what's wrong, new clutch is OK, but A/C compressors magnetic clutch and pulley assy has gone south...
the whole fucking compressor was replaced 3 years ago... found new pulley assy cost only 210£ express shipped to me...then to find a shop to change it...fast, need to car to move daughters stuff from her school apartment back homeand not the second without third.
Yestrerday I received my new tank for my Indian...it was delayed only 3½ months,ofcourse paid in advance. I took a look right away...what the heck, there's no oilreturn tube though we agreed that it will be added.
Pissed, but got it sorted by calling a buddy.
Went to garage to check how it fits and if the mounting boltholes are in correct places, yup, they are, fine.
Decided to tweak mounting plates in frame before the tank is painted....so decided to look inside of the tank, just out of curiosity. WHAT.....there is no inbuilt oilcomartment at all, though these tanks always have that.....I'm totally fucked...what a bummer...Sending the tank back today for fix up, and so I'm going to miss karate training as I need to hurry to the postoffice to get the tank to germany as the seller will be traveling from 27th and he needs to get the tank before that....
Sometimes when life sucks, it sucks really hard....
