Walking back to the bus, a check, a copy of the slavage release, and a licence plate in hand, I found it odd that a big metal machine could be so easily reduced to a few slips of paper and a metal plate.

It's a done deal.
Yesterday, among all my running around, I stopped in at ICBC (insurance company) to sign the salvage release form and to pick up the cheque for my totalled car. $1440.10 isn't gonna get me very far, but at least it's a start. I wonder how they pinned the value down to the nearest ten cents? I picked up my plates, too. Well, my plate. The front plate came off in the accident, something I didn't realize till the day after on my way to work when I saw it lying in the middle of the intersection. It was sad to sign that form, handing the Beastmobile over to ICBC. It was like a final farewell. I know I shouldn't be so attatched to that silly car, but oh well, what can I do?

That IS funny, that little dime tacked on the end. And they say you can't buy anything with a dime...
Life would be easier if those agencies would learn the concept of ROUNDING.
So, what kind of car are ya gonna get?
yes, rounding up... like they could've rounded up to 1500 or 2000
I see you are from British Columbia. I visited there back in the late 80's and found it to be beautiful! It was the first time and only time I had ever been to Canada and I hope to go back someday.
