A couple days ago I got a letter in the mail from alberta justice. Not something you wanna see in your mailbox. I opened it and it was a refund for a ticket that I had paid, they spelled my name wrong so it got quashed. So I think hey this is gonna be a good day, NOT, then I go to work where I have two quads on a trailer parked behind the shop, except they weren't there anymore. Some punk stole my trailer and my two quads. The quads were insured but the trailer wasn't. I'm pretty choked because I just put a bunch of money and time into fixing them up. So i'm probably not gonna get much money for them, lost me trailer, and have to pay two deductibles. God I hate people that steal!!!

I realize it could have been much worse, and I could be rotting on the side of the road with about 4 other people that happened to have been walking near my car when it happened but I really think it was a pretty crappy day, not to mention if I lived in a country where people were shooting me for what I believe I'd say it's a pretty good day, because I'd be dead so it would no longer be a problem. Whereas, it was still my problem when all this crap happened wasn't it.

I'd say I was having a worse day than a dead person, what are they worried about there dead. Yea, ok there's people dying(sp?) there having a worse time than me, but at least they aren't coming close to killing other people(hopefully) like I did. To die by yourself is one thing, but to take others with you is a totally different story.

I don't care what anybody says, it was a pretty sh*tty day.

It didn't move very much, he was standing just in front of the truck, plus I have bad aim and it wasn't exactly a tape ball either, it had a small steel ball bearing in the middle to give it some weight.

Regardless it hit the truck, dented it and I got in sh*t for it.

Tape ***** can be heavy. At work we made one that was about 6" diameter, we played baseball with it, and I hit a beauty of a shot (right off the end of the broomstick! the sweet spot!) and it flew up and left a huge *** dent in our prefab building's wall. It made a lot of noise.
It never occured to me to put a ball bearing in a tape bal though...

Ahh man, that would bite.

I'd be sueing, the company AND the other guy, then I'd laugh in both their faces because I'd win.

Imagine all that happening but coming home to a wife and screaming/crying kids. That would be worse. This isn't my situation but just letting you know IT COULD BE A LOT WORSE BUDDY. I can think of a lot of things to make that situation suck harder.

Just ride it out and see what happens. Things cycle and nature balances out. IF things are bad, that means you either just had some good things happen or you're due.
