Default I had a bad F'''n weekend!

Well I had a pretty shitty weekend! I was at a friends 30th birthday party. We were all having a great time. I hadnt been there that long, and his hot *** sister inlaw asked me to take her for a ride in the truck. Of course I said yes ( She is HOT.............and just got the ***** done! ) How many hot chicks are in to fast cars or truck?

We get into the truck. leave the housing addition. The road is a two lane road and they are doing a lot of new housing construction on it. I.E. a lot of dirt next to the road on the side im on. I get about 100 feet and lean into it. It starts to break loose a little and is fish tailing. Nothing new. Well I guess it got into the dirt a little. next thing I new it was coming around on me. Again nothing new. We have all done it. Only problem is this time the passenger's side rear wheel smacked the curb.

I pressed the accelerator and it had nothing. It didnt feel like it had any gears in it and made a noise that made me want to cry when I put it into park. I got out and walked around to the passenger's side only to find I had broken the axle completely. Luckily I didnt damage the wheel, tire, or body.

After a ride on the tow truck to my buddys driveline shop. I headed back and drank myself numb! I went back the next day to survey the damage in the light and so far the damage looks limited to the broken axle, drum brake assy., and one bent cal-trac bar.

I guess the only good thing to come out of it was after killing my rear end the first words out of her mouth were " well at least we can make out! "

If some body can tell me how to shrink the size on these pictures I will post them up. The file size is too big and I cant figure out how to make it smaller.

If you are running XP then put the pics in a Folder. Open the folder and click to highlight one or more of the pics. On the left side of the screen it should say "Email This File". Once you click on that then a prompt will pop up asking you if you want to scale the pics down. Answer the prompt. Email the pics to yourself. Put the smaller pics on your host server and you are all set. Works for me

At least it wasn't a complete waste. And consider the cool story you get to tell people if this chick sticks around for a while. I broke my axle and then I made out with this hot girl. Awesome. Sympathy rocks.

It's much better than the time I broke my axle. My girlfriend didn't care whether i was hurt, she just yelled a lot about me not being able to come over.

I did almost exactly the same thing in the rain a few years ago.

I trashed my rim too though.

I'm sure you already know, but it's a pretty easy repair.

At least you got some *** anyway!

Please post 'em up, and oh yeah, we don't care about seeing your axle.

Ok I am going to try the photobucket route. The chick with the big hooters is the reason for the broken axle. That and I wasnt thinking with the right head!
