Scary trip to Lowe's today

Came out to one of their large flatbed carts (like in the gardening area) rolling across the driveway directly towards my car

I broke out into a dead sprint knowing I was too far away to do anything. I was the first car in the aisle, but there is an island with a curb protecting my car. Luckily, I was pulled up far enough, and after barely scraping the edge of the curb, the cart passed behind the Z. However, the Santa Fe next to me wasn't so lucky. The lady was loading the back of her car (she had backed in - or pulled through) and ran up to the front of her car to catch the cart just as it smacked into her front bumper. An employee was also running to the scene and immediately offered for the lady to come back inside and file a claim with their loss prevention department. Though clearly perturbed at the incident, she made the decision that filing a claim to fix the damage (it ain't gonna buff out, trust me) was not worth her time. You can be damn sure I would have been all over that if it had been my car. That's what I get for parking in close to the entrance

Me too! My heart skipped a beat when it scraped by the curb - I was just envisioning the back wheel catching on the curb and causing the whole cart to turn towards the Z.

Best Buy has an excellent return policy! Lol.

Things going on right now have sucked away my interest in photography.

I have plenty of ballcock thingies

I was buying some washers for the install of my new bench vise and some Simple Green to deep clean my air filters this evening while I do the brake rotor, pad, and fluid change
