• Well yes the $#!% just keeps hitting the fan. As many of you may or may not know I no longer have my car. And some of you have asked why so I will put everythign into retrospect.

  
  

  last tuseday it started makign a rattling noise in the enging so I decided to stop driving it and on thursday morning I broguht it to mazda for a checkup. 8:45am I hear a loud bang  and my car is on fire infront of the service bay at the dealership. Theres screaming and someone yelling to pop the hood and another guy saiying that he woudlnt do it. So i run back to my car and open the hood..... The enginge is on fire....

  
  

  They used up 3 whole fire extinguishers but it only seems to make things worse. by now the hood is closed and the flames are flying out the front grill, hood scoop and the weel wells, its not long before the fire completly engulfs the front end and melts the hood completely as well as the licenceplate, front bumper, headlights and windshield. At 8:50 I call the insurance company and they siad to call back after i get a report formt eh fire department. 

  
  

  8:55 The fire department finally arrives and sees that the flames are shooting higher than the dealership building causing the windows of the building to crack from the heat. Everyone on the premises is order to exit the building for it may catch on fire... The fire department use there giant hose and at 9:05 they finally put the fire out.

  
  

  9:10 I get the report number from the fire department. By now i can see the total extent of the damage. everything from the steerignwheel to the side mirrors to where the front licence plate use to be has decenigrated from the fire. nothign is left. the dvd nav was melted, the dvd changer was submerged in water, my ez pass looked like something resebling a fire roasted marshmellow and at first I thoguht it was my black garage remote but then my dad found that inside the new lake the fire department made. Pretty much everythign eletrical was destroyed. and well anything that was infront of the front seats. The heds up display compas was definately melted away all that was left was a cord runnign up to where it use to be. I also found out carbon fiber doesnt burn. The resin that is used to keep it in a sold form however burns very well.

  
  

  9:@3 i get a hold of the insurance company, They said that in 3-5 days they will send a claims representitave to assess the damages and extimate the cost of repairs for the vehicle... Since they have not yet seen it they dont know that all thats really left is the rear end of the car. The service department manager told me that inorder to fix a $20k car that badly dammaged piece by piece will cost $30k in parts and $50k in labor. all in all a little more than double of what I've invested and spent on the car... I salved eveyrhtingthat I possibly could from the car. dunno what I will do witht he stuff. I still want another 3 but I dunno. Its jsut not the same.

  
  

  The service manager also said that It wil proably take a while before I see any money from this incident, mainly because theinsurance company will try and say it was a defect and mazda will say prove it. and well since there is nothing left there is no way to prove what cause the engine to explode.

  
  

  So basically I watched the sum of everything i worked and sacrified over for the past 3 years burn to the ground before my eyes. all those days spend in a dark lit kitchen for a evil menichal company with only non english speaking mechicans as company missing out on find, birthdays, parties, semi, amusement parks, halidays, PISTAHAN, and pretty much all my weekends ever. Everything vanish in a meer 10 minutes. And all I coudl do was stand there and watch it burn. The one and only thing I woudl never want to see on fire. The one last thing left in my life to bring a smile to my face is dead.

  
  

  Aside from this, since the nav is gone I will get lost and more often than ever before, and wont be able to find my way back. I dont even know how to get back to sunshine place. And the only way to get to mengmeng's house is through the navigation since its a brand new development thats not registred. And any cross country trips this summer will be a bitch.

  
  

  My printer also died today...

  
  

  Everythign that Is near me or close to me dies breaks or goes away... ><

  
  

  Is this carma? am I not doing enough to better the world, isnt there anything enough. Is it a crime to be happy to live happy.. or is it jsut a privilage that i am not entitled to. Or is this all the preminisions that mengmeng warned me about the year of the rooster being bad luck for all those that are roosters. And yet in the end I could have still been stuck inside that car and burnt to a crisp. or maybe simply my lick has jsut finally run out. Or maybe its jsut another day.... Anyways Come to Pistahan Friday May 6th.

  
  

  Red Out.... Like the fire that engulfed my car....
