| I saved a lady in a runaway car today...
So as i was cruising around in my company truck, me and my co-worker passenger stopped off at the new Price-Smart foods to get some stuff for work.
as we parked we noticed an older Asian lady had tried to park her car (corolla or something), but her front passenger side bumper has bumped into a parked, smallish SUV. (Rear driver quarter pannel) and she couldnt figure out how to get her car unstuck.
the corolla's bumper was touching the tire and i guess it was gripping onto the car or something.
she gets out of the car and looks at it, meanwhile we are laughing quietly to ourselves and get out of our truck to go see if we can help.
she starts PUSHING on the corolla's front end in an effort to unstick it. i look away for a sec as we're walking over. I look back and to my surprise, it appears she had freed the car AND was pushing it out of the parking lot....
I was like WTF!!?? she can't be more than 80 lbs and she's pushing this car like its a toy....waitaminute...she isn't pushing it it pulling her!!!
SHE'S TRYING TO STOP A RUNAWAY CAR WITH HER BARE HANDS!!!
the corolla has its wheels cranked so its goin in reverse in an arc, meanwhile this poor lady is beeing pulled along in a circle towards a concrete wall.
My buddy shouts out "LET GO!" in cantonese as we race toward her. Of course she doesn't, and is now in danger of getting crushed between a car and a wall.
Stangely enough the reversing corolla doesn't hit a single car on the way out of the lot.
by the time we get close enough to grab her away, the car has made almost a complete circle and rolled onto the grass/sidewalk and towards the wall with about 2 feet between the wall and car with the lade in the middle.
i manage to dive through the driver window (thank god it was open lol) and pull the ignition and stop the car with my legs hanging out and the lady still holding the steering wheel from the outside.
Tah- DAHHH!
apparently when she got out to try to move her car she neglected to take the car out of reverse and pull the e-brake
< insert obligatory Picard face-palm picture >  
so how was your day?

I can't remember what I was trying to do (looking at the tires?), but I do recall stepping out of my car after putting it in D and releasing the e-brake. It proceeded to head straight for my parents' house! 
Luckily I jumped back in to slam on the brakes before hitting anything.

went to drop off other car to get an alignment done. was told it takes an hour, didnt get a call till 2 hrs later. then was told alignment cant be done because 3 of the 4 tires need replacing and rear brakes need replacing.
i know the rear brakes need replacing, because i have the new brake pads sitting at home ready to be installed.
tires have a little camber wear on them, but had them flipped, and are no where near the wear indicator.
sigh.

Turbo E,
I skipped most of what you wrote but I'm sure all we want to know is - is she an Asian MILF? If so, pix or GTFO. | |

Good job Turbo! 
I spent my day pressure washing my fence and tent trailer and deciding whether I felt up to figuring out why my bike isn't getting a spark.
Anyone know of a MC mechanic who can diagnose for cash?
OH and I watched the Jay's blow a 5 run lead going into the 8th and a 2 run lead going to the bottom of the 11th. 9 game losing streak =(
cho - sounds like you need to drive your car harder or you're only taking it on really short trips and not allowing the engine to get hot.
SG - you need a set of wheels to borrow for your alignment?
