Well, nightskyre is awesome and took my car into the brakes place again - turns out, the brakes just needed to be bled again, and they were nice enough to do it for free!

I swear, if I have any more problems with the brakes in the next couple of months, I am going to hurt someone. At least this time it didn't cost me anything.

Ok, I jumped on the "avatar" bandwagon. But at least now I have one user icon that actually looks vaguely like me... or even like a person at all!
