Awwwww, mannnnn!

Went to the car after work, opened the door, and the plastic sill trim went with it. It was stuck to the rubber seal. -1 degrees. That probably wouldn't have anything to do with it, would it?

I'm sure there's no way I'll find a suitable (grey) replacement, so now I need to find a way to stick it back. All four (?) tabs are broken off. Liquid nails?

Double sided sticky tape holds on my drivers side as well. Works great! Probably available thru SOA for about $30.00 a strip. No, I'm sorry. That price is for the Legacy double sided sticky tape. The SVX double sided sticky tape is $62.00 per strip and must be special ordered with an 8 week backlog and is no longer available in grey.

Randy ii,

Don't worry about the freezing temp. in Tampa. It's just the state government's way of helping to condition the Bucaneers to paly in northern climates.

Oh, what's that you say; the game is in San Diego.
Well you know how state governments are.... they mean well.

Say isn't GW's brother, your governor.
Chin up, it could be worse. George could be your governor.

He was mine, a few years back, when I lived in Texas. Considering the state, he wasn't a bad governor.

Not sure there is such a thing as a bad governor in Texas, the position can't really do much. Except talk.

Whu'd you call me? I'll have you know I resemble that statement!

I hereby challenge you to a dual. No. Make it a quad. Consider yourself engaged (or something).

Thanks for the pre-frozen orange juice.

If you don't like the way we count here in Florida then pay attention to one of the other 51 states!!

I rather like Drew Carey's rendition: While spraying an aresol can up in the air he says "*#&% the grandkids! I'm cold now!"

Why did the blond stare at the Orange Juice carton??

Because it said "Made from Concentrate"

Just a little bad joke to warm your cold hearts..
