Who replaced my Dad with an evil clone?

[duane_kc]

Called Dad & told him what happened. No anger, no disappointment, just "Are you OK?"

Then he offered to send me ANOTHER $3 grand!?!?!

This is the man who all through my childhood could pinch pennies so hard Lincoln screamed. I don't know who replaced that man with his evil clone, but I want to kiss them.

"Evil" in the sense that this is totally opposite of the man I grew up with (and in terror of...)

Dunno, but do you think we could clone his brain and put it in my Dad's head?? Life would be peachy then.

That is WONDERFUL! I'm glad he realized how lucky you were and was so thoughtful and supportive. Phew!

Well, I'm sure he's realized that money is material and life is not... Anyhow, do me a favor and put a down payment down with the three thou versus buying a piece of crap or fixing the van. I know you don't want the car payment, but it'll be worth it in the end...

It's not a matter of wanting a car payment, it's a matter of being unemployed and not being able to make one...

Well, if you purchase a car that you're gonna have to fix often you have the same payment going... So, perhaps save it until you get a job?
