barf!!!

I agree that boycotting the Colorado Dept of Fish & Wildlife is not the solution to this stupidity.

I still have relatives living in the Denver area and I was there last week visiting them.

While I was there, I picked up a nail in one of my car's tires. My tires are Firestone, so I went to a Firestone tire center there. I asked the guy behind the counter if they fixed flats and he says yes, it will be $20. So I told him that I have their "Road Hazard Warrantee." He looks it up on his computer and confirmed that I did and told me the fix would be free.

I then wait for 40 minutes for them to look at my tire. The guy finally comes back and tells me that the nail is in the edge of my tire, and they don't fix flats there, so I needed to buy a new tire, but since the rest of the tires are partially warn, I should buy 4 new tires. He said they would give me credit for the unused warrantee miles on my tires so the new set of 4 tires would only cost me $770 dollars.

By that time I was a little upset with them and had decided not to buy new tires from them, so I asked him how much of that price was tax. He replied that the tax in Lakewood was 6 1/2% so the tax was $50. I then told him that I wasn't going to give the liberal idiots in the Colorado government $50 and asked him to please just add air to my low tire.

I then drove down down the road to a Big O tire shop and in 20 minutes and for $15 they had my tire patched.
