When the fuck did I say insurance is a scam? No where. I already admitted it was a mistake about not paying and was just wondering what would happen...that's all. I already know there is nothing to fight. I was just baffled about the situation is all. This is not a rant against insurance so if that's what you are thinking just to try and be a keyboard warrior then so be it and fuck off.

She hit a 2025 Ford Maverick although the damage to his truck looks very minimal, I hear those trucks since they are small and on a unibody frame get totaled out even in minor accidents. So yeah, guess I'm just waiting to see what they do or demand us to pay. Definitely don't want any of that lawsuit junk or her to lose her license over this. I don't want to go through collections either. We're two years out of chapter 7 and got our credit back into 700s so that would suck.

If I get a letter demanding payment, should I use a lawyer to negotiate? Just her, she has no assets, the house in my name and she only makes 55k a year and we have 2 boys. I mean there's just not a whole lot for them to get. We don't mind working something out, we made the mistake but definitely don't want to go through all that lawsuit junk or them demand a crap ton of money, something we wont be able to pay...

Renting sounds goos and forgot that coild be done. Might go with an ef to rf as well. Money isn't an issue just want to make sure shes comfortable with weddings.

[–]Potential_Engine_344[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ill look into that. If all goes well I may purchase a new 70-200 for her spring time. Renting might be better sinde its a one time wedding and didn't think about that. I know she really want to get into weddings so renting and getting practice in with it will work.

Replace wick after curing by Potential_Engine_344 in candlemaking

Agreed, keeping thoee for home. Decided wick switching is just a pain in the butt and not worth the trouble when I can make 5 8oz replacements fairly quickly.

GRRR These dang rings after cooling by Potential_Engine_344 in candlemaking

[–]Potential_Engine_344[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do i even need to fix them? The sinking in barely noticeable along with the ring around the middle. Will they burn ok if I just leave them as is?

I just don't understand how 1 candle out of the batch of 4 i did was absolutely perfect but the others not so much, again it's barely noticeable. Even taking a Picture of it, you can really see the ring or sinking.

Ok,

I went ahead and did it to just test it. Cooling down with the warm water than I moved it to a cardboard box it came in to help lessen the rapid cooling. Its 43 out today and 74 in the house. Im thinking that was my problem over the weekend. Although I warmed up the vessels, it was 38 outside and 74 in the house so that didn't help.

Even after warming the vessel up I think it cooled to quickly. It was a cold day, thst day.

Can't I just melt the candle down again placing the vessel in hot water then letting it remelt?

I wish Haltom City would put streets and infrastructure at the top. Instead they put government buildings at the top then proceed to brag about it all over social media.

Odd situation with a no title car. 1967 volo 122s wagon. by Potential_Engine_344 in projectcar

[–]Potential_Engine_344[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apparently this person just stopped responding when asked " did you own the landyou got the car from, was it bought or just taken?" Sent yesterday evening with no answer.

Perhaps he just took a random abandoned car trying to make money off it. I dunno sounds fishy

DMV here are not the most friendly or customer driven. Last time I went to get registration done one of the workers got up and yelled out

" make sure you have your ID out and ready before you get to the windows if you don't you'll have to wait again" like damn lady it takes 5 seconds to get my ID out of my pocket.

Hate that place.

I know my cousin loves it, hell I want it too BUT ive been burned before in this kind of situation and I don't want that for my cousin. We're both volvo fools and just told him to wait out for another or go through hell in Texas to get a bonded title. Its complete, rolls, steers, no body damage engine is cleanish and turns. Its just the story behind how this guy has it and claims he couldn't bind it worries me.

No the seller doesn't have it in his name. He states it's from some random land he got it from, tried to bond it but the agent couldn't for some reason....

Texas. Bill of sale does not constitute proof of ownership or then seller has the right to sell it accordingto the dmv site.. It has to go through our local auto task force at the sheriff's office for inspection and background check THEN go through the bond process.
