einer's Journal: Stupid damned car...

Unfortunately in the wide open spaces of Nebraska, a car is necessary if you need to go anywhere.

Well my starter just took a huge Honda crap. Why isn't there a manual push start option? How hard would it be to make an automatic transmission roll startable? How infuriating. I can design, build, run and maintain an enterprise wide web app, but I can't get my car started.

That this weekend is Labor day is only more salt in the wound. The plans are shot, and I have to wait until Tuesday to even get my car in the door at a shop. Since it's a honda, multiply the expected cost of replacing a starter by 4, and that's probably what I'll be paying.

Looks like another weekend spent playing morrowind.
