I feel your pain brother. $3.03 in my bank account. I should really invest in a job one of these days. But yeah, I'll make the cross country trip and come and help out.

runs me about $40 down and back to Baltimore. I can avoid tolls coming down by going through Delaware, but coming back is a different story...But since you are in Baltimore, it should be less in tolls coming back...From MarineFiero's place to mine, its $19 for tolls on I-95 one way.

If you could cover my trip, I'd be more than happy to come by

I might be able to help on Saturday... PM me contact info and will be in touch. I live near I97 and RT 32, not worried about fuel cost as I have a company car (Impala with a 3.5, so feel free to nose around under the hood if needed).

Technically I'm not living off your taxes. Unemployment Compensation is paid for by the employer and the employee. And you think I don't already know I need a job? You think I don't want to be working, to be out of the house doing something? Its not as easy as you think numbnuts...

i wish i still had access to a garage, or my own backyard, atleast with that i could just keep the car cover and the tools inthe shed, living in an apartment, gota pack everything up and take it back inside anytime you leave it for more then like 10min

oh well, i was approved for a "first time buyers" home loan, all i gota do now is find a house that i like thats worth buying... cant find anything in my price range w/ a garage.... houses in baltimore are overpriced, if i moved to PA, i could get like a 5br with 2car garage for the price of a rowhome here..

Move up around Gettysburg. 20 minutes to Westminster, and you get bang for the buck, house wise. Trust me...I know!
