Warped Drive - General Discussion

This place has been deader than an out of business morgue the past week or so.

Someone PLEASE start a new thread so I can be mean, crude, etc...

So, how are you enjoying filling the tanks lately?

Bought any defective tires lately?

We are in the need of a very cool new thread.

please no more crummy tire threads..... or handicapped kids either.
I don't think my cholesterol laden heart could take it.

As a matter of fact, I bought 4 new GOODYEAR tires yesterday. $1500

Fuel? It's not bad. Gas isn't bad either. The current prices will hopefully keep the handicrippled people at home and off MY road.

We had a massive misproduction at the plant this week. Somehow, we built 8,000 bad tires with treads that just would not cure out. They are going to send them out to be recapped, and then sold at a lesser price. It won't be a total loss for the company that way.

We did have a couple of people fired over this.

Ohh yeah that's me again to wonder how could that happened 8.000 bad tires.
I hope no one can't be blamed of fired for this big misproduction.

I have a serious critter problem in and around my house.
Inside the house I found out we have a mouse, no not one to use your computer, but a real with with a long tail and 4 paws.
He is sneaking through my kitchen at night.
Now I hope this critter is soon poof gone.

Second critter problem is in and around the pond.
It seems the froggies in the neighborhood have chozen my pond as Kintergarten for the toddler froggies.
They hip around my pond, they swing in the leaves of the water plants and let me jump 1000 feet high to remove when I walk around the pond.
Now I wish I could drill those toddler froggies to a world famous froggie orchestra.
The toddler froggies are not a problem ... but their big parents are. The walk sneaky on the terrace or move when I am around.
It's not easy to teach a toddler froggie how to play guitar, drums and guitar, some are able to do the leads.
Now ... do you think I can create a froggie metal band?
What do you think of the "Frogg Hoppers"

Like I said, there were a couple of people fired due to the misproduction. But, when you do the math, you can see why.

8,000 defective tires multiplied by $300 (production costs) equals $2.4 million dollars. We will spend even more having the defective treads removed and recapped. Then, they will sell those tires BELOW COST just to keep from losing the whole $2.4 million. Yeah, somebody's gettin' fired! Actually, they are already gone!
