:-O The streets in New Orleans are killing me...
or at least my wheels and suspension. I have to drive through a Katrina stricken area (if you kept up with the news, directly through the area of the 17th Street canal breakage, across the bridge at the top of the picture below), and the roads are filled with potholes, cracks and dips from the water and truck damage. And, it doesn't look like they'll get fixed anytime in the next few YEARS, based on the progress of everything else. As much as I want to drive the TT, I may have to commute with the X5 with 17MPG at 80 miles a day!
At least some of the damage is marked with cones and barrels and I get to dodge 'em! ;-)

Be sure to let me know... I'll do both >>
Golf and drinks.
By the way, My cousins have an auto repair shop around Rochester... it's called Scorsone's Service Center. Have you heard of it?<ul><li><a href="http://www.scorsones.com/">http://www.scorsones.com/</a</li></ul>
