Valet Parking

[B O N Y]

Yeah, Bony, it's often better to probably just run it through insurance and let the adjusters and auditors have at it, but keep a watchful eye.

Based on the facts, sounds like the right thing should happen here. Just make sure you write down the names and parties and promises while it is still fresh in your mind.

Since legal terms were being thrown around, I just wanted to add whatever light I could, in an attempt to help Todd. I didn't want him to think he might have an unobtainable standard to meet, if that might not be the case.

I am no fan of certain aspects of the system. Just trying to help.

Since there is so much general hatred and mistrust of lawyers, it's often the case that many remain silent...

Hi Randy,
Many of my closest friends are members of the bar. I just think often times lay people jump the gun and charge out of the gate screaming "lets sue the bas-turds." Todd's case is pretty simple, damage occured in front of witnesses, we know who drove the car, we know he did not contribute to the damage, we also know that the casino is not governed by state or federal laws oustide a treaty they agreed to. Sadly, Todd will waste time and money and will never be 100% whole. Have I missed anything?
God Bless America,
daniel


p.s. yesterday a young kid covered with pimples drove the front of my car over the edge of a curb at the car wash. I spotted the spoiler and air dam making contact, pointed it out to him and the manager. When I back up, the spoiler was damaged. Cost $600+ The car wash is owned by a friend, I already had an estimate. They will pay for a pos loaner and the repair. The time I loose getting the estimate, bringing the car back for the repair, and picking it up will be for my own account. So is life.

Bony, tell me it wasn't your GT?

Yes I agree, life isn't fair and then there are TAXES!

Let see, work hard, be sucessful, make and save some money = pay more taxes. Be lazy, don't work, be a loser = the government gives you money. What are we teaching our kids, do less get more, do more give more? I wonder why we have such a hard time finding good help.

No, my Volvo V70R, hardly take the GT to a car wash

Thanks Jeff and Bony, excellent advice to Todd!

I agree with both of you. I'm sure Todd will be grateful for the help.

I hate to see people waste valuable time and money with the legal system too. Good for some things, not so good for others.

Todd, here is so sound advise. Get the baddest mofo attorney you can find. Then nail the driver of the car, the owner of the Valet Co, the contractor of the parking lot, the casino, the tribe that owns the casino, everyone who has posted on this thread in general and Syco in particular for his thinly vailed disclamer, DBK for allowing this to go on and not banning me when he had his chance, your insurance co., and finally Mrs Todd for working over your tired old bones for a substantial up-grade in a replacement car. GT500KR:eek who does she think she is???:bs
Then, you and I can spend all rewards on such items as 3.3 blower upgrades and new wheel/tire combos etc...!:thumbsup:banana
And yes I should get something for being the only real bitnessman here on these boards.

Bony, I think you meant members in a bar. Todd, let your insurance handle it. Hope you had uninsured or underinsured riders. I'm sure your insurance company will love to talk to the casino. Personally, for a small fee, I'll give you all kinds of legal statements about your state of depression, moroseness and lack of consortium. I'd even testify you wanted an autopsy done on yourself! Your buddy, Frank

Todd.... lack of consortium?eek:eek
This is serious, if your unable to take care of Mrs. Todd, you have lots of friends here on the forum... Just bought another case of Old Spice Cologne and Aqua Vella After Shave,.... we are here for you, :cheers:lol:biggrin

Dr. Frank has sucessfully installed 'the pump'.... it works from a power take off ran off your FGT to an air compressor your pull behind it. Three hundred feet of garden hose is included that you run into the window of the marital chamber.
Attach that to your "winston" and you'll be back in the saddle.:banana:willy:banana

Now, if the problem is that Mrs. Todd isn't interested in....
I would head down to the neighborhood Jaguar Store and get her a nice XKR.

Let us know how we can lend a hand,
your pals at the FGTForum,
bony

I thought you were talking about the GT also.

The V70R must be a riot. I test drove one of those and it was fun! Cool gauges.

I spotted those ben franklin printing machines under the tarps when the GT Guys were working at your shop.

Your henchmen were using the forklifts to safely store them out of sight, but it was too late to conceal your diabolical plan of world domination:eek...

Dr.Frank,
I think you forgot to mention that you also volunteered to do a frontal lobotomy on the so called valet. While he was strapped to the hood of Todd's Mustang. With Todd driving of course. Angeles National Forest re-do of the Rally II route. I'll loan you the surgical tools for this procedure - 6# lead mallet and a very dull wood chisel.:smash

[B O N Y]

Todd,
Do yourself a favor, go through YOUR insurance company, that is why you pay them.
The amount of time you will spend on this is not worth it. It is a loose, loose situation.
Been there more times than I care to admit.
Feel for you, MAKERS MARK on me next time.
Cheers,
daniel

Todd,

I don't want you to sue anybody either. Again, I think we are all in agreement that you should proceed with insurance.
