Ooooooo! Oh NO! Not THAT situation. My youngest sister and her husband had a very similar situation with their truck a year or two ago. They had taken their truck I believe to get the Power Windows repaired. As I recall, removal of the dash was involved to find a short. Well, after their truck was returned to them with the Power Windows declared repaired … now the Power Seats wouldn’t work.

Hopefully they don’t pull on you the stunt of, “Ohhh, that is a totally different problem. It is completely unrelated to anything we did. We’ll fix it, but we’ll of course have to charge you separate labor.” [img]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/–9ySJk6JJp4/UnwD_qo6riI/AAAAAAAAALQ/8d7UDDjwSSw/s1600/Insane.gif[/img]
This reminds me of my incident back in the 90s when I took my GMC Jimmy in to Western Auto for a simple Oil Change. Well, I don’t know what went down, but I left there having to be given a ride home and my GMC Jimmy having to be towed to the Dealer because mysteriously after the “simple” Oil Change, now it wouldn’t start. It would crank strongly, but it wouldn’t start for anything. That had NEVER ever ever happened before. The Western Auto personnel of course claimed the problem was not related to anything they did.
With it being a Sunday, they only had the absolute Moron Crew there. No one with any actual Auto Mechanics knowledge was there. That’s why no one there could remotely troubleshoot my Jimmy to see why it suddenly wouldn’t start after the Oil Change.
Luckily, on Monday when the Dealer Service Department looked at it, they were very honest. They told me it was just the ECM Computer Module FUSE that had blown. They could have easily claimed it was some other expensive part and tacked on some labor also. But, as I recall, I think they just charged me for the Fuse and for the Towing. I don’t think they charged me any labor.
How that ECM Computer Module Fuse wound up blowing from an Oil Change? I’ll never know.
My heated seats aren’t heated anymore either. EVERYTHING was working when I took the Jeep there and they’d better make everything work again!!!
I have to wait for the ‘crew’ who worked on my Jeep to return to work on Thursday. Apparently, they only work Thursday, Friday and Saturday. It’s really cold here. I’ll really be mad having to ride to and from work on those COLD leather seats. Also, I have a massage appointment on Thursday, so unless they offer me another Courtesy Vehicle to drive to my appt., I will have to wait until Friday. 🙁
Maybe you can temporarily put a big towel over the driver’s seat.
Hopefully they fix the problem without giving you any guff.
Hey, I saw the movie Tombstone this evening.
I was at my younger brother’s house today and he gave me a box full of VHS Movies Tapes. For a while now, he’s been converting his movie collection from VHS Tapes to DVDs. He had given me some more VHS Tapes previously and he gave me some more today.
Anyway, Tombstone was one of the movies in there. So, I slapped the tape into my VCR this evening. It was good. I enjoyed it. Dana Delaney was some very nice Eye Candy … even in Period Piece clothing. [img]http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Gsds2RhmxlI/UnwAv2rR5RI/AAAAAAAAAJw/D9bWia26T38/s1600/Drool.gif[/img] Very pretty.
I feel much for westerns too. The music, the landscapes and the saloons. They are my favourite movies. Wish you both, Summer and Carlos, a great time watching films. 🙂
I love Tombstone. My favorite part of the movie is when Doc Holliday/Val Kilmer says, “I’m your huckleberry.”
Hopefully your brother has Young Guns and will pass it along to you soon. It’s about the guy who claims he is Billy the Kid.
Willie Nelson played in a Western called Barbarossa. Gary Busey played his UNWANTED side kick. It’s good and really funny with Willie always trying to get rid of Gary.
Hi Jean. Great to see you here.
Have you watched any of the Westerns Sunny and I have talked about?
Uh Oh! Looks like you’re going to know all the lines in Tombstone by heart like I do the ones in Office Space, Annette. I can’t remember the context of when Doc Holliday said that.
The first of many good parts that I liked was when there was that mean, obnoxious, dirty, “Potty Mouthed” [img]http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_tZqIzB1bTk/UnwS6d9Ha6I/AAAAAAAAAQk/gGY-5FxB-5E/s1600/Whistle.gif[/img] bully Card Dealer in the Saloon and Wyatt Earp nonchalantly goes over there and stands there. The Card Dealer goes, “You got something on your mind, boy?” Wyatt calmly goes, “Yes, I just wanted to inform you that you’re sitting in my chair.” The Card Dealer goes, “Is that a fact?” And Wooooooo! Wyatt then proceeds to administer the Card Dealer a mega slapping attitude adjustment. [img]http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6fKvHMuCALU/Unv6KR0A2KI/AAAAAAAAAHA/seBhSrXzeXE/s1600/Big+Eyes.gif[/img] [img]http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mgVHX8PvCB8/UnwJIQRLdTI/AAAAAAAAAM0/uzsRPrheWAA/s1600/Norris.gif[/img]
I kept wondering … Isn’t Tuberculosis contagious? If Doc Holliday had it, wouldn’t that woman always with him and everyone who had contact with him have gotten Tuberculosis as well?
I found it hard to believe that Doc Holliday could have still handled his own in the shootings here and there while being as sick as he was. Especially when he beat that Ringo dude to the draw.
Heyyy, Yoda! [img]http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6gYTm__ywq4/Unv-nhOyWTI/AAAAAAAAAI4/yE1QQPoNcUE/s1600/Cowboy.gif[/img] There were no more Westerns in that collection of VHS Tapes that my brother gave me. So, this evening I watched – Crimson Tide. Very good movie. Very suspenseful.
I must have missed it somewhere. Why were Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday friends if Wyatt was a retired Lawman and Doc Holliday was … well, otherwise?
Was Doc Holliday supposed to be from somewhere other than the USA? Or why did Val Kilmer play him with that voice? Was it supposed to be an accent? Or was it supposed to be his sick voice?
The[b] obnoxious, dirty, “Potty Mouthed” Card Dealer in the Saloon[/b] was [b]Billy Bob Thornton[/b]. Yeah, I liked the attitude adjustment Wyatt gave him too!
This site will answer all your questions about Doc Holliday. http://www.legendsofamerica.com/we-docholliday.html It is 5 pages long, but IMHO worth the read.
Doc was a Southern Gentleman from Georgia. I think Val Kilmer was trying to project a sickly southern accent.
THERE! YES! BINGO! That’s who that was. As soon as I saw Potty Mouthed Card Dealer, I had been trying to figure out who it was. He definitely looked very familiar. But, it just never came to me. I guess it didn’t come to me that it was Billy Bob Thornton because he is a little bit heavy set in this movie … and my last recollections of Billy Bob Thornton were of him being thinner in Pushing Tin and Monster Ball.
Ahhh, a Southern Gentleman from Georgia, huh? No wonder you take a liking to him.
I guess it wasn’t just a “sickly Southern” accent that Val Kilmer was trying to project, but also a DRUNK one.
As I vaguely recall, Val Kilmer was The Saint. Not that I saw that movie, but I’ve seen several episodes of The Saint TV series on the RetroTV channel. On there, The Saint is played by Roger Moore. Isn’t Roger Moore and the character of The Saint … British? Why would they cast Val Kilmer as The Saint? Ehhh, I guess he had to do his best impression of a British accent. Unless they made The Saint character in the movie be from the USA.
Since you didn’t read the 5 pages on Doc Holliday, I will try to post the parts that will answer your questions.
“I found him a loyal friend and good company. He was a dentist whom necessity had made a gambler; a gentleman whom disease had made a vagabond; a philosopher whom life had made a caustic wit; a long, lean blonde fellow nearly dead with consumption and at the same time the most skillful gambler and nerviest, speediest, deadliest man with a six-gun I ever knew.”
– Wyatt Earp speaking of Doc Holliday
One night, while Doc was dealing Faro in the Long Branch Saloon a number of Texas cowboys arrived with a herd of cattle. After many weeks on the trail, the rowdy cowboys were ready to “let loose.” Leading the cowboy mob was a man named Ed Morrison, whom Wyatt had humiliated in Wichita, Kansas, and a man named Tobe Driskill. The cowboys rushed the town, galloping down Front Street with guns blazing, blowing out shop windows. Entering the Long Branch Saloon, they began harassing the customers.
When Wyatt came through the front door, he came face to face with several awaiting gun barrels. Stepping forward, Morrison sneered “Pray and jerk your gun! Your time has come Earp!”
Suddenly, a voice sounded behind Morrison. “No, friend, you draw – or throw your hands up!” It was Doc, his revolver to Morrison’s temple. Doc had been in the back room his card game interrupted by the havoc out front. “Any of you bastards pulls a gun and your leader here loses what’s left of his brains!” The cowboys dropped their arms. Wyatt rapped Morrison over the head with his long barrel Colt, then relieving Driskill and Morrison of their arms he ushered them to the Dodge City Jail. Wyatt never forgot the fact that Doc Holliday saved his life that night in Dodge City. Responding later Wyatt said “The only way anyone could have appreciated the feeling I had for Doc after the Driskill-Morrison business would have been to have stood in my boots at the time Doc came through the Long Branch doorway.”
And that is how Doc and Wyatt became friends.
Actually, I did read several of the different articles there in the various links within the link you provided, Annette. Interesting stuff. I did come across that first paragraph that you posted. But, I don’t believe I came across that Long Branch Saloon incident.
Yeah, that Doc Holliday was a trigger-happy trouble magnet with a long trail of bodies. But, with Doc having saved Wyatt’s life like that, I can see why Wyatt would consider him a great friend if not his best friend. Well, that and the fact that apparently Doc didn’t hesitate to have Wyatt’s back in whatever dangerous task Wyatt tackled that would almost assuredly involve guns firing and their lives would be on the line.
I read on there that aside of Doc dying of Tuberculosis, so did his mother and his sort of brother, that kid that his father had brought over from Mexico.
For a while there, when I was reading that article about Doc’s father having brought that kid from Mexico, I thought it was going to turn out that that was Doc and thus, Doc would turn out to be Mexican.
Remember how you commented that you were born 100 years too late, Annette? Well, I sure wouldn’t have wanted to live in that era of the extremely dangerous Wild Wild West. I mean, you would accidentally brush up against someone or randomly look in someone’s direction for longer than a second and BAMM! You were challenged to a gunfight. If you refused, you’d be killed anyway.
Doc’s life would have been totally different had he not been dying of Tuberculosis. Since he was already dying, he had NOTHING to lose by getting involved in Wyatt’s gun battles.
If I had lived in that era of the extremely dangerous Wild Wild West, I would have wanted Doc to be my best friend too.
Ssss SO … [img]http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-r5PNlOqmV48/UnwXTh8q0BI/AAAAAAAAAR4/V9g6w3tuBXw/s1600/Left.gif[/img] [img]http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KBE0YbU85L4/UnwLWvwCS7I/AAAAAAAAANs/Adi-GX1_9SE/s1600/Right.gif[/img] did you tear anyone a new one today … like maybe a certain eavesdropping-happy Service Manager? [img]http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pBdFzu4oO6A/UnwNLw28URI/AAAAAAAAAOE/TdBiB7AC_Oc/s1600/ROFL.gif[/img]
How’d the rework on your Jeep go?
The second girl I talked to called my cell on Friday, but had already left work when I got her message and called her back. I called her twice today, but it went to voice mail both times.
Service manager is supposed to call me when he gets the ‘fix’ from 5 Star. Hopefully, I will hear from him soon. If not, I’ll sic the girls on him. 🙂
You should have gone like Bill Bixby’s David Banner on The Hulk — Don’t make me angry. You wouldn’t like me when I’m angry. [img]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/–9ySJk6JJp4/UnwD_qo6riI/AAAAAAAAALQ/8d7UDDjwSSw/s1600/Insane.gif[/img]
Hey, Annette, have you watched the movie Cast Away?
I just finished watching it. If you have watched it, I have a question regarding the very end.
I watched Cast Away a long time ago. I think I have the movie here in my collection. If not, I could probably watch it on Netflix.
I remember the very end being so sad. After all he went through, you would EXPECT him to get the girl!
What is your question?
Yeah, the ending was sad.
My question: At the end, Tom Hanks goes and delivers that FedEx package way out in the country somewhere in Texas. He then makes it back out to that 4-way crossroads and and is looking at the map. That girl comes over in a truck and comments how he looks lost and proceeds to inform him of what is in each direction. She then says – Good luck, Cowboy or something along those lines.
Tom looks around, presumably in all 4 directions so as to decide not only which direction he wants to go, but what he wants to do next. He finally appears to decide as he looks into the camera.
WHAT was Tom Hanks decision?
Without rewinding the tape to replay which direction was which, I am inclined to think that … that he chose to go back to where he just finished delivering that package … and where that cute girl presumably lives. You know … as in he just lost his wife … and so now destiny has thrust upon him cute Texas girl to alleviate the pain of what he has just gone through.
Would that be your take as well? Or did I just get too creative?
Oh, another question: With that package that Tom delivers to that house, he leaves a note saying, “This package saved my life.” HOW did that package save Tom’s life? As best as I could recall, at best, that package was just where he’d put that Pocket Watch with a picture of his wife.
As he delivered the package, it was sealed.
Or had that package contained the Ice Skates and he put them back in there and resealed it?
MAN! I swear. Several times I considered just up and stopping the movie just because I was so sick of the shameless King Kong Tsunami of FedEx product placement throughout the entire movie. FedEx must have funded the entire movie. I mean, there couldn’t even be a serious / sad scene because BAMM! There’d be an instance of FedEx in the scene somewhere, even if subtly.
Oh, last night I also finished watching The X Men.
I had started it the previous night and gotten bored with it. So I decided to check into the remainder of it last night to see IF it could pick up the entertainment pace a bit and at least mildly entertain me. What utter crap. How lame. The next thing I knew, the ending credits start scrolling. All shocked, I went, “WHAT? That’s it? This is the end? Are they serious? That’s as good as The X Men got? All I saw was them constantly getting their butts kicked.”
Woo Hoo! BAMM! That’s it! I am D-O-N-E … DUN!
I have just finished recreating my last MyOpera post on my Blog here on Vivaldi. [img]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SyT6t5nqUwo/UnvCtabT92I/AAAAAAAAAGA/RVwsyN2HoYE/s1600/Accordion.gif[/img]
I am now current and up to speed with that stage of the process.
I now have to go back through each and everyone of those 47 posts and copy the plain version of each post as well as the HTML version of each post. I’ll back up each one of them on MS Word Docs like used to do on MyOpera.
I’m not 100% sure, but I THINK the HTML versions of each post can be inserted in my BlogSpot Blog’s HTML area. Not that I’m then necessarily gonna rush over and finish recreating all my posts on my BlogSpot Blog. But, I have to be prepared to execute Plan B just in case Vivaldi doesn’t progress and I have to move back in to BlogSpot.
Good idea. BlogSpot blogs do offer more customization. They are prettier.
I took my jeep back to the dealership today and they gave my another loaner car until they get it fixed. Service Manager just called…he [b]CLAIMS[/b] it’s the memory, which is located under the seat. He [b]CLAIMS[/b] Star says when the battery is disconnected to remove the dash, it sometimes kills the memory. Lamest excuse I’ve [b]EVER[/b] heard. What happens when you replace the battery? It [b]HAS[/b] been replaced before [b]AND[/b] it did not kill the memory. He says the memory will cost $450. He says he will talk to his manager about this situation. I [b]MAY[/b] end up having to pay to have their mistake corrected [b]BUT[/b] I will [b]NEVER[/b] take it to their dealership to be worked on again!!!
WHAT? No No NO … that sounds like crap.
Are they talking about that supposedly disconnecting the battery can sometimes kill … some RAM Memory under the seat? IF that was true, then that would be a design flaw. THEY disconnected the battery to remove the dash. IF that really damaged some RAM under the seat, I’d say it be the responsibility of the Dealer or the Vehicle COMPANY to pay for the replacement RAM.
That would be BS to expect the customer to pay for new RAM every time the battery has to be disconnected for whatever reason.
I talked to some of the guys and girls at work today about my never ending dealership service department nightmare. They convinced me NOT to let the dealership do the repair, but to contact Chrysler’s Corporate Service Department. While the dealerships are privately owned, they represent Chrysler and have to answer to them. What the dealership has done is wrong and I hope and pray the corporate office feels the same.
When Service Manager called today, the price of the repair had gone up to $480, but his manager had authorized him to give me a $125 discount. I told him I had NO intentions of PAYING to have something fixed that worked when I left it with him for something else to be repaired. I told him I would be by as soon as I got off work to pick up my jeep and would be calling Chrysler on Monday.
Excellent advice. That’s the ticket.
Heck, the threat alone of you calling Chrysler might make the Service Manager blink.
Their explanation is just so ridiculous. There are just so many reasons why the battery might need to be disconnected during the life of the vehicle. It is stupid to suggest that any and every time one disconnects the battery, you’re playing Russian Roulette with that under the seat RAM … IF it even exists.
Heck, just last week my Dad replaced the MAP Sensor on his 88 Dodge Dakota truck. Since the instructions were missing in the part’s box, the guy from AutoZone told my Dad that to clear any Error Codes … [b]just disconnect the battery[/b] for a couple of minutes. Not that my Dad’s truck has RAM under the seat, but the point is that disconnecting the battery is not some huge throwing of the dice gamble.
Exactly! I will call on Monday and hopefully the person I reach will take notes as I bring up the things you have mentioned. If allowed, I plan to walk them through the whole nightmare. 🙂
How were your Birthday Celebrations? Hope you had all your favorite foods and got the presents you were hoping for.:D
A little over a year ago, the Starter on my Isuzu Rodeo was really acting up. So, my Dad & I replaced the Starter. And guess what? That’s right. The battery of course had to be disconnected. In fact, the instructions most definitely stressed as the 1st thing … to disconnect the battery.
If you were to decide to install a Monster Stereo System in your Jeep, I guarantee you the battery will HAVE to be disconnected.
If the Fuel Pump, which nowadays they are always inside the Gas Tank, had to be replaced … the battery will have to be disconnected.
And none of these cases should stress the living daylights out of you that there is supposedly a 50 – 50 chance that you’ll wind up having KILLED some $480.00 RAM under your seat.
Have you checked your Owner’s Manual in the section for those Power Seats / Heated Seats?
MAYBE with a battery disconnect … the Settings get disabled / defaulted … and you just have to RESET them. I’m having this very foggy recollection in my head that my sister encountered something like this with her truck.
So, maybe that RAM is not fried, but rather, whatever is down there just has to be reset.
That thought came about because I remembered that with a battery disconnect what WILL happen is that you’ll lose your Radio Stations Presets. Unless you have some higher end radio that has the capability to keep that from happening.
As to my Birthday celebrations? Well, I already mentioned on my Blog what I ate that day.
And whom I hung out with that evening. [img]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-xJeFUsPsjfQ/Unv6ZiGp3YI/AAAAAAAAAHI/VPY8G2nKGbQ/s1600/BigGrin.gif[/img]
Presents? That state-of-the-art computer that maybe you sent me hasn’t arrived yet. [img]http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-er4qVwx2b9s/UnwHw6Z44pI/AAAAAAAAAL8/fW8lyn4_-bQ/s1600/LOL.gif[/img] Anyway, my older sister took my parents and me out to eat earlier in the week to celebrate my birthday. So, in that event … got a Philly Cheesesteak, Fries, Salad, Pie and Dr Pepper as a Birthday Present. [img]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-k6x9i3mfA7Y/UnwQXuetp0I/AAAAAAAAAPs/97n1LXEt8NA/s1600/ThumbsUp.gif[/img]
Preset Radio Stations are still preset. Tomorrow is Presidents Day, so I don’t know if I’ll be able to contact Chrysler’s Corporate Service Department.
3 other women I work with went to other brands of automobiles because of this same service department. 2 of them were Jeep owners and the other one had a Dodge. All 3 had the same problem as I did. They took their vehicles in to have one thing fixed and they were returned to them with something NOT working that WAS working.
Your state-of-the-art computer is in the mail. 🙂
So, you had great Birthday and Pre-Birthday Meals. Great!
I thought of you when I was grocery shopping in WalMart yesterday when I passed by a display of Ramen Noodle Soup. I picked up a 12 pack of the Chicken Flavor and intend to have it for dinner tonight.
BTW, I have changed most of my Privacy Settings to Friends Only for this blog. That should keep the person with the bad attitude from dragging by blog entry ratings down. It SHOULD keep him from being able to view my posts and comments also. Vivaldi really needs to give us the option of blocking people like him from our blogs.
Yeah, that’s true. Monday might not be the best day to have that Pow Wow with Chrysler.
Speaking of Ramen Noodles, I have a recommendation if you haven’t tried them out yet.
There are these [b]Nissin Bowl Noodles – Hot & Spicy[/b].
As the name says, they come in bowls instead of the squares like Ramen Noodles.
Inside, they have 3 packets. The spicy chili packet … the dehydrated vegetables packet … AND then a Flavor Booster packet that you put that one in AFTER you microwaved it. It’s supposed to boost the flavor since theoretically some flavor gets lost in the microwave process.
They’re very good. NOW … you may or may not find them at every Walmart. Cuz here, at the nearest Walmart SuperCenter, they actually don’t have them. I find them at the smaller Walmart Neighborhood Market. Then again, I can also find them at Dollar General and Family Dollar and other stores.
Ahhhhh! Excellent idea on that Privacy Settings change. Well, theoretically anyway. By that I mean that provided the function actually works … given that right now a lot of things on Vivaldi don’t work. But, yeah, hopefully that Privacy Setting does keep the riffraff out of here. [img]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-k6x9i3mfA7Y/UnwQXuetp0I/AAAAAAAAAPs/97n1LXEt8NA/s1600/ThumbsUp.gif[/img]
I will look for the Nissin Bowl Noodles. Since I don’t do Hot & Spicy, I will just leave out the spicy chili packet.
[b]IF[/b] Vivaldi gives us a BLOCK button, I will change my settings back. He’s NEVER made a comment on my blog. I don’t think he should have the option to rate a blog entry if he’s not commented.
I may venture back to the Forums and ask for a Block Button. I may also ask for the option of removing that Rate this blog entry function.
Well, I can’t guarantee what the TASTE will be with that chili packet being left out.
But, what the heck. Give it a shot. It’s not like you’d be out a fortune if it doesn’t work out. They only cost like 77 cents or thereabouts at Walmart.
Cuz keep in mind. In the Ramen Noodles, what gives them the flavor is in those packets.
Wow!
I hardly ever get notifications for Vivaldi.
But things do seem to be happening here! Five pages that I never even noticed!
If you hardly get notifications for Vivaldi, that’s more than I get.
I get absolute SQUAT. Well … I do get [b]E-mail[/b] notifications, but that’s not what I want.
I don’t want E-mail notifications cluttering up my E-mail … even if it is in my Spam folder.
I want System notifications.
