currently watching: South Park Season 8 South Park - The Complete Eighth Season

last week when i was signing up with my 4th car insurance company in the last 2 years, i started thinking about all the companies i’d never do business with again. 

1. Southwestern Bell  (they still owe me $50, i dont care if AT&T bought them out)

2. Geico (totally botched my claim this summer)

3. Country Companies Ins. (screwed me out of any $ when my car was stolen)

4. Tires Plus (they lost in their computer the fact i bought a lifetime balance/rotation for my tires)

5. Firestone (i’ll never forget when they tried to charge a friend of mine $30 to install a freaking car battery-a service most do for free)

6. Valvoline Quick-Lube (they installed the wrong oil filter on one of my cars)

7. Discover Card (they falsely advertise 1% cash back when it is not a true 1%)

if i think of any more i’ll add them.

in other news i should have my new car in the next 3 days.  i start my job in 2 weeks, but i’m a little worried because i haven’t gotten my new hire packet in the mail yet.  in fact, i haven’t heard a thing from union pacific since i was hired.  but they told me all is well if i hear nothing.  so i’ll continue to wait.

Was in Manhattan this past weekend for “Madness in Manhattan”.  K-State kicked off their basketball season with a lazer show, a dunk contest, and a scrimmage.  They also unveiled new unis which look tight.  Here’s what they look like:

first game in 3 weeks, pretty excited for that.  i do have season tickets, although with the new job i dont know how many i’ll make it to.

  1. you should switch to CITI card. They offer 5% on gas, groceries, & pharmacy and all others 1%. I’ve calculated it. We use it just for gas & groceries and get at least a $50 check every 2 months or so.
