Men at Work
Electronically, having given up on the flat tire we got on the way to a meeting. The thing was really stuck on there, only giving way after some serious pounding from the roadside assistance guy. Note – a mallet of some sort might be helpful to have in your spare tire kit. Anyway, while waiting for that we booted up and shared the connection (mighty easily on the Mac might I say) from one mobile wireless card. But the look on our faces here I think still tells the story that we’re not entirely loving the situation. Here’s a shot of me taking a turn on the jack while we were still under the illusion we’d be on our way in a jiffy:

Are you guys in the back seat of the Prius? It looks like frozen hell. More of the joys of living in Chicago.
And, um, should we be worried about the tires on our new Prius?
And what’s this LinkedIn thing?
That’s the front seat. I dunno about the tires, but the jack leaves something to be desired.
LinkedIn is all the rage, Pops. Check it out.
Yeah no problem with the tires. It was a combo of the pressure being slightly low and hitting a massive pothole. Bad luck all around. Haven’t had any issues with the tires otherwise aside from the usual (nails, etc.)
It’s worth noting that this photo represents the last time my laptop was functional before taking a dive in the snow. Recovered the hard drive, though, which is the important part!
