    Just found out our new governor is pretty intense about enacting California rules here. I can't imagine I'll have a problem very soon, but it's something I'll need to think about.

    Man, what is it with body shops? Pretty much everyone I've ever known to bring their car to a shop to be painted has had some kind of MAJOR problems and have ended up using more than one. You don't have to recount the story, but it just seems really typical of that industry!
