That blows

This weekend the power steering started acting up on the explorer. By saturday morning, it had completely gone on the left side only (weird!).

Who the hell do I know in Slovenia?!?

Looking at the map tracker I installed, I have a few hits from Slovenia, Poland, Australia, and canadia. Huh? I mean, it could be rerouted traffic, BUT THROUGH SLOVENIA?!? Anyway, if you're that bored, perhaps you should comment, or even [gasp] follow me on Twitter.
