Okay, something non-Lisp for you all...
Just took my car in last week for service. The driver's-side door lock would lock but not unlock. Very annoying, as it forced me to keep climbing into the driver's seat through the passenger's-side door every time I left work to drive home. In short, I had to have this fixed right away. So last Thursday I took it in. The service manager called me that afternoon and let me know that there was indeed a problem. "The good news," he said, "is that the part is only about $45. The bad news is that we have to take the whole door of the car, disassemble the door and take out the glass to replace the part. It's going to take us two hours and cost you about $500 total." Me:
Grrrrrr... I hate cars. Worse still, this is a 1998 Ford Explorer SUV that gets 18 mpg and has 125K miles on it. I think it's time to sell it.
