First you're telling me to go hit the casino, now you're telling me to roll my cars? Geez .

I had considered getting a pickup this summer and putting the 300SD and Buick on a summer/winter program (the MA RMV allows this -- $25 to switch registrations between cars), because the Buick is really good in the snow and i want to keep the 'Benz away from salt. Unfortunately, we just got news this week that my father will be receiving zero pay for at least a month and maybe more (contracts at work haven't come in), so I am assuming that any money that I make at a summer job will probably go to supporting us (he has already been working on 75% pay for the last many months...). If that changes, I may get a beater pickup.

Im just testing your advice filter. The best option is to roll the car on the way back from the casinos. If you are going to be naughty, better to pack it all into one incident. Then it will always remain "that one time", not a trend.

Shame about your dads pay, hopefully it works out ok.

Interesting point. I'll try doing it that way. Hey, can I borrow your 240D for that? I know they'd be even more upset if I rolled someone else's car, and that way all of mine stay intact.

On second thought, I'm staring at a really big bag of really tasty corn tortilla chips. If I ate the whole bag now, I could probably achieve almost the same level of irritation. Maybe I'll just do that.
