I don't really think they have matinée prices anymore. The tickets were $8.50 each +tax and I didn't bother to check on pricing. I know they do have senior citizen discounts but not how much.
Our little local cinema has 5.00 tickets every day! Whoop!

Not the compressor. The receiver/dryer wich must be replaced when the system is opened up. Filters any moisture and dirt that gets in the system and keep the system dry. Water is a big no no in air conditioning systems. You actually vacuum all the air out of the system to around 30" hg. This causes all the moisture and most of the solvents used to evaporate and be removed by the vacuum pump from the system. Ok maybe too much information but just wanted to give you all an idea what I'm doing. ;):)
When you're done there you can come tell me what's wrong with the crazy steering & braking on my truck.

Ours is $8.50 for matinee and $12-15 for night time and then the special ones are more...

You know that is a representation of _______ ________ and a Red Nose left over from Red Nose Day .. ?? ;) I suppose I could put the White Hair Kabuki Gene Simmons Shih Tzu up .. which scares even me .. ;) (forever in your debt, Gary .. ) .. and yes, my face is behind the mask .. pay no attention to the man behind the curtain ..

It's just a load of Shih Tzu .. ;)

.....I've seen much scarier avatars used...;)

A bit of coincidence going on? Yesterday somebody had a Kabuki for sale in the classies, and I was telling somebody in the HO that I wondered if the people who named it had any idea that Kabuki was a very old form of Japanese theater and dance....

You'll have to grow your hair much longer Willie to play the role of the white lion ......;)



for those unfamiliar with Kabuki....that is make up, not a mask on their faces...



Congrats to anyone (aside from the person I was talking to yesterday) who can tell me the name of the Mexican actor beneath the nmakeup and costume here.....

Kenna, on a serious note, I don't know if it's a good idea to drive it .. a tie rod or a strut issue can develop into a dangerous scenario, especially if you are placed in an emergency driving situation .. it could possibly be a sway bar as well .. just my :2c:

    On a side note, unrelated to any particular discussion taking place, discussing known issues with a vehicle, assuming those issues might lead to an accident, carries a whole host of legal ramifications in the event of an accident. If you ever see someone doing so on a forum it would be advisable to NOT quote their post.

    Just an FYI in case such a discussion were to ever come up on the porches. Wouldn't want to help lay the foundation for a lawsuit. Hoping everyone gets my point?

    I hear that Alaska has that problem a lot...
    It's mostly the Moose that ramble out in front of us, but ya. ;) :lol:

    And yes, seriously, this ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ;)
    Since I'm not layin' on my back in your driveway, I can't say for sure but (and we've discussed this before) The likely causes of the issues you describe are an alignment issue (as well as possible tire pressure issues. Although I know you just had those replaced. ;)) in regard to the steering and worn brake pads/rotors or a bound up caliper piston in regard to the braking issues. Bottom line, get it looked at asap. ;)

    With all the rain we've had lately, I sure wouldn't mind coming down there and laying on my back in your driveway to help ya out! I could use some sunshine! ;) :D

    Because of course they can remove the evidence if you haven't yet quoted them, but once you do they can't. I'd hate to see anyone here hurt, but I'd hate it even worse if we assisted a greedy lawyer by leaving a trail that proves they knew there was an issue in the first place.

    Yet Car Talk and Auto websites too numerous to count dole out advice on safety and known issues 24 / 7 .. I don't know if I understand what you're saying .. ??

    Well my Grand SIL took his test for Staff Sergeant but won't hear the results for 2 months. He says he is not getting his hopes up in case he didn't make it but he's been studying a lot so I'm pretty sure he will make it. Makes a difference in his re-enlistment bonus and of course his pay.
    My Grandaughter got a really nice official letter from his Commander telling her how much she was appreciated for supporting her husband on his deployment and how he is greatly appreciated there. It was probably a form letter but still nice. Made her feel really good.
