The Official Status Update Thead: Part 99 - Fight Club

[churchmouse]

I have only owed the state once, I vowed never again. Made the necessary adjustments to withholdings and haven't owed since.

I usually break close either way with the feds. State I do not care if I owe. We had issue with them one year when I closed out a business. They said we owed "X" and we payed "Y".....I disputed their figures. They raided my bank account for what they "Thought" we owed. Turns out I was correct and had to fight them tooth and toenail to get my money back. I truly dislike them.

My car leaks antifreeze, oil and power steering fluid. 2 of the power windows don't work right, the gas gauge doesn't work, the A frame bushings are shot, antilock brake system doesn't work but it still runs and gets me to where I am going

MY car is pretty awesome except for the transmission leak that is now fixed. A few minor things (passenger window only goes up from the passenger side switch, climate control is out so I have no vents or defrost, sunroof switch is a story that deserves its own thread), but all in all I love it. HIS car, even though it's my car's twin (same car, same year, different color) has TONS of problems. I can't turn the wheel without creaking and popping due to the bushings. And the shocks/struts are so bad that I feel seasick when I hit a rough patch in the road

That sucks. I had my battles with them before. I sent my return to them (this was in the 80's) via USPS and 1 month later got the returns back. They were shredded and had an oily substance on them. By the time I got them back and redid them I was considered late. My small return turned into a debt. Took forever to get it straightened out.

Oh and the gas gauges on both of our cars work as long as they are between full and 1/2 tank. Once it drops below that they always read full....it's a Riviera issue

If you let mine sit while idling it will read true unless it's below a 1/4 tank. Then it reads full. The odometer doesn't work either. Damn digital read outs. I could fix both things but don't want to spend the $$ or time.

Jeebus, it's late/early. I have to get to bed so I can deal with more bull at work tomorrow.

Goodnight

One more thing about the Buick, the stereo wont work right unless the sun is shining on the car. Its crazy. when its not working right the only sound I get comes out of the front left speaker and its distorted. When it works right the stereo sounds great.
