Anyone want a [explitive deleted] car?

Well, my car is in serious trouble, and it's gotten to the point where I don't feel comfortable driving it anywhere (even the Blazer didn't get to that point). I actually went down to the place that's handling the transmission repair today (it was supposedly fixed yesterday, but no one told the car that) and told them about the problems that are currently there. The people, who swore up and down that their work would be covered and they'd fix any problem, proceded to tell me that since I've "got the new transmission", I should "take the opportunity to sell it or trade it in now, before it ends up costing any more." Point taken, guys, but the idea is to make the car dealership think that the vehicle is worth anything, and giving them a car that may lock up mysteriously driving down the road probably isn't going to get me top dollar. They referred to all the problems the car currently has (some of which I already heard), but the point remains that before the transmission went down the tubes, it ran well. I just want it back to the point where it was before the transmission died. If they can't give me that, that's their problem, and has to do with their work, regardless of other problems the car may have. The problems were there before, and the car was "fine". Now I can't drive it.

Also (yeah, I update this late), it appears the Lakers lost tonight, and are out of the playoffs. I really don't like pro basketball anymore (I was never really a big fan), but I do enjoy seeing teams like the Lakers lose, especially since they're a major team (like an LA or New York) that just begs for bandwagon jumpers. It's one of those things that made me dislike being a Yankee fan. Once the Yankees started winning, every New Yorker jumped off the Mets bandwagon and suddely became a Yankee fan, despite the fact they couldn't name four players on the team. If you want my NBA pick though, I guess I pull for San Antonio, for two reasons. One: they have on their roster Craig "Speedy" Claxton, the only first round NBA choice out of my beloved Hofstra University. Speedy gets playing time too. But the main reason is the fact that it's San Antonio. It just says something about the NBA where their world champion can be from a city that has no other major sports franchise. San Antonio! Home of the NBA World Champions, and AA Minor League Baseball!
