I never worry about Halloween trick or treaters..I just keep my lights off and take bong hits..

I think it's the weirdest thing that kids go trick or treating on the 30th in New Hampshire. In Vermont the day before Halloween was called cabage night....the night the older kids would go out and wreak havoc with toilet paper and eggs. If it weren't for the Ct river, things could get ugly on the border :lol:

I have a friend in PA who went trick or treating tonight with her kids. She thinks it's weird, too.

As for the ski shop... doubt they'd get me new skis. But they will be hearing something. Wish I had said something when I got them back, but I was so burnt out from the kids and I was afraid of making a big deal out of something that wasn't... At least he didn't screw all the way through, right?

Right now... sitting in bed, drinking a Sam Octoberfest, watching TV, procrastinating doing homework. I'm feeling lazy tonight. Long day with the kids.

What ski shop was that? Bummer that they did that. What a drag.

Did you buy the skis there? I don't think it's unprecedented to ask for new skis if a mistake is made in mounting bindings. Didn't Greg do that last year with his Cabrawlars?

I bought them (as a new 06/07 leftover) at a tent sale in NH, and the bindings came from Tramdock. I don't think it's out of the question... but it's just a dimple and it was the owner who mounted them/claimed they would be just fine. I'm not sure I would get far with that complaint. Though I do resent the fact that I paid $50 to have them mounted, they didn't do them when they said they would, and didn't even test the bindings. GRRRRR.

ETA: Geez, am I getting a rep on here for being a complainer? Really though, when I'm wronged by a retailer (or feel so), I get irritated about it and vent. In this case, it was a big wrong.

yeah, it's been a quiet week at home

 

[deadheadskier]

You should definitely get your money back at the very least. An owner should always 'own' up to his mistakes.

Dimple, not too big a deal. Crappy service, big deal. Especially from the owner.

You know we should have a shop and boot fitter review section on the site.

The bindings B ordered had lifter plates and I wanted them flat mounted. So the dude said he could, he'd just have to grind down the screws (for an extra $10). I dropped them off 1 week ago and he said they'd be done today. I showed up at 3:30PM (shop closes @ 5) and right away he says "Oh yeah, we didn't get around to yours yet. Do you want me to do them right now?" Uh, yeah. "Oh, but I need to grind down the screws so it will take a while...do you have any errands you can run?" Uh, no. I spent all afternoon doing that and now have 2 cranky kids on my hands. I'm not putting them back in the car. So after waiting a while, he comes out...and says that there's a dimple in one of my skis because he didn't grind the screw down enough; but no worries, he shortened it more and reinserted it...and the dimple will not affect the ski function at all. Oh yeah, and because I told you you didn't have to leave your boots, you'll have to check forward pressure when you get home.

:angry:

Not going there again.

What's the name of the ski shop???????

catching up on the last two weeks of entourage

Right now I'm trying to regain some form of composure as my business partner walked into the office about 10 minutes ago wearing a full sized Scooby Doo costume which is about 3 sizes too small for him! The site of him trying to figure out where to put his tail while he's working is priceless!

Coffee, oatmeal, economic news, headlines. Gotta get my phat azz to the gym today.

 

[severine]

Hopping in the shower... then I need to wash dishes, do laundry, bake cupcakes (for tonight) and chocolate banana bread (because the bananas are a bit too ripe)... then get the kids dressed up to bring them to my sister's work....

 

[RootDKJ]

Sitting in my office for the first time all month reading the numerous posts I've been missing all day.

Going to do my monthly vehicle mileage report then leave early today.
