yes last night I drove to Cleveland to buy/trade hoods with Dan. Its a really nice carbon Fiber hood I love it! However on the way home I somehow got lost.
ok for those of you who live in Cleveland what the heck is a roundabout???????? ok I am going down this road and I see a sign saying 71south turn here so I am like ok I guess I will turn here. Then I see a sign that says ROUNDABOUT with 2 more signs behind it with symbols on them that look like alien corn crop circle things!! I was what the heck am I supposed to do. So I took the first road that i seen that I thought looked the safest LOLLOLOLOLOL right boy was I wrong. I was going down this road and every foot I traveled I knew it was all wrong. A car then is now following me and we go over a railroad track well at least I thought it was a railroad track now I am not so sure. Anyway as I am going over it my tire pops and so does the person driving behind me.So here I am in a scary looking neighborhood with a flat tire and I have no spare since lol I already blew my other front tire out a few months ago so I had no spare or anything I then called my lifesaver Tom "fowvay" he came out there in his Bug in the cold and everything and brought me his only spare save me. Also let me tell you what else happened. After my tire blew and I called Tom he gave me a few numbers of tow truck companys that I could call to get towed to his house. The first one said " there aint no way that Im gonna go out in those parts. Here is a number to another tow truck place you can call. I called them, and got the same response. The gave me a suggestion to "just drive on my flat and get the heck outta there" he gave me a number to an emergency road side tire service. I called them and they turned out to be a trucks only thing. They then gave me the number to national tire. National tire said sorry we are closed for the night and we dont even carry the tire size you need and we cant get it until tomarrow or maybe even the next day but he says well since its almost the weekend it might not be able to get one till monday!!!!! Im like NO THANKS. there was also this one guy who came and tried to help but I was kinda scared of him. Anyway he did help Tom find me and my friend. well that was my night in a nut shell I was was starving and freezing and tired ![]() |

oh yeah also I was 1/3 of the mile away from the house from the movie the Christmas story lol and also the one of the guys told me that the area is know for meth lab explosions and chop shops NICE. I also got a scare from the bridge as well. there was a snow plow truck that drove over the bridge and when it did it threw snow all over it was scary!! ALso there was a building that had a pipe that was blowing super flames. Im thinking that was like a ultra meth lab or something

What a sad story! I'm glad it's working out for you. Good thing you had Tom to help! He's a real go-to man, eh?
Did you figure out what at the "track" crossing caused the blowouts?

OMG!
![]() That must've been soooo scary for you! I'm glad that Tom has saved you So I hope you know what a roundabout is all about? If not, take a holiday to the UK or France. They are EVERYwhere over there.... |

If only if people would signal when leaving the roundabout otherwise you will be waiting there forever.Close to my work is a nice one. When it's dark, it's lit. It looks like a UFO, grounded |
