surprised it wasn't more than 5k damage considering it was bad enough to crack your windshield. Ins Adjuster estimated my damage at $3500 and I don't have a dent larger than a major door ding (of course there are about 60 of those). Think i'll pocket the money and try the DIY route with dry ice as best I can. The roof of my house is another matter entirely though, I think i was shorted a bit on that adjustment (especially considering roofers are charging a premium atm).

Quick somebody with l33t photo forensic skills zoom in that last pic and pull out details invisible to the naked eye like they do on TV shows and figure out where Lum is working before he takes it down!

There's nothing in that picture that would tell you. But I would like to point out the 30 foot tall reflection of his hand on the next building over. And 40 foot tall head. Man, those buildings are haphazardly placed.

That's not how it works on TV!  You can zoom in on the reflections on the building, "enhance" the details, and reveal some reflected signage or other identifying marks that'll tell us where Lum is working! |

THE EYE OF LUM WATCHES US ALL.
Seriously the reflection is disturbing.

Maybe Lum really is 50m tall? Can anyone refute this hypothesis?

Everyone's so focused on the vulture and Lum's eye they missed the subliminal "KILL" message in the brown reflected bit.

Got another thousand out of Statefarm. It only took a weeks worth of work. Looks like I'm getting a bit over $11k for my vehicle before deductible and all of that. So, I'm decently happy. I guess. Would still rather have my car.

And the irony of ironies. I went to 30 car dealerships yesterday and 5 more today (walking, ugh, many, many miles in 90 degrees and jeans, i r stupid). SO.
One block from my house is a black celica GT-S. $7500. Gonna walk in with $7,000 cash tomorrow and tell them it's theirs if I can have a mechanic check it out and get an OK. Apparently it was not hit with hail. I suppose I can suffer through it being an automatic.

Not knowing how far you drive everyday or if you even go anywhere for a job...
What about getting something really really cheap (1500-2000 range) and pocketing the rest for the next hail storm a rainy day?

As I told the car salespeople. I'm kind of a prick. I've been spoiled by decent cars. |

Surely that's just for gas money and hookers.

Gas requires a car, and I'll warrant hookers do as well if you have any sense of hygiene.
