Was this man in the right? Should he have been more polite? I know this one guy and he's a real work of art. He's a guitarist and he's very competitive. I am the same age as this guy. We're both 34 and we both jam on guitar together. The problem is that this guy is a redneck and he's pretty egotistical. He invites me over to his place just so he can play guitar real loud and he'll say over and over, "Hey, I am real good. Right? How did that sound?. I am real good, huh?" He'll do this for hours. He's quite vain. He'll also play guitar real loud or turn it up while I am trying to talk. He also plays real loud when I am trying to tune up. He also goes around to bars where bands are playing and he unplugs the guitar of the guitarist and then he plugs in and starts playing and the band members see this and they stop playing. He almost got his butt kicked a few times because he did this. He'll also play the jukebox real loud while bands are already playing. He almost got his butt kicked doing this, too. This guy also acts a fool when he gets to drinkin. He'll pound a shot or a beer and throw the bottle or shot glass on the floor and he'll break it and yell real loud. The bartenders say stuff like, "Get outta here, you MF'er." And then he'll run to the bathroom real quick and plug up the toilet with too much toilet paper or he will poop on the floor. | | He's a "ME monster" so you are around him why? | Is 198,000 miles on a 92 Honda Prelude to many miles for $3,900? the cars apperance is on point nice paintjob and body kit butt his is all the work thats been done which will ultimatley lead to my decision to buy the car or not

is their any thing else that should be done or looked upon before the purchase or what should i approach him with for the price | www.kellybluebook.com. use the web site to input the cars year, make, model, mileage and condition. do not take into account the aftermarket accessories. the web site will give you a good person to person private sale price of the vehicle and this should be your negotiating price.
the aftermarket accessories, even though they may be nice, do not apply to car sales unless you are a dealership and this is a new car. if you are selling this car (im unsure by the way the question was phrased) then you can include the half cost of the accessories and add on, but expect the customer to balk at it and want to come down. if you are purchasing the vehicle, the same rules apply, if the seller wants to add these costs to the unit, offer half price and if he doesn't budge, walk. there are many fish in the sea. | Does this seem like a good chapter or a good book? Well, first off, let me state that I do not own Percy Jackson & The Olympians and that I am simply borrowing ideas from Rick Riordan. If this book ever does get published, I'll make sure to have complete permission from him.
My book follows the adventures of Brian Campbell, a 13 year old son of Poseidon from California, as he attempts to get safely across the country to Camp Half-Blood. It sort of takes place around the same time as The Lost Hero, but mine takes place in September-June, whereas The Lost Hero might take place during summer.
This chapter is the first one of the book. Notice that it's short. That's because it's a rough draft. Don't put that in your answer. I will make it longer once I have everything for it. If you have a good idea for it, tell me. Everyone in the book is my real life friend, I do go to that school, I do live there, and I do help take care of the chickens.
Chapter 1: A Broken Hose Talks To Me
Let me give you a few words of advice. If you think you are a half-blood, stop reading, get rid of this book, and don’t ever think about it again. You’ve been warned.
I started out a normal 13 year old in a pretty big city near Los Angeles. I wore glasses, had a few freckles, I was a bit chubby. I had a normal house in a normal neighborhood with some normal dogs and a normal sister and normal parents. Well, that’s what I had thought. If I could choose my biggest mistake, it would be going to Grove. See, Grove was a Jr and Sr High School. The High School was normal enough, but the Middle School was, well, a farm. I mean, that wasn’t the problem, but it should’ve tipped me off. I stayed out of trouble for my first two years, but 9th grade was trouble. See, unlike most schools, 9th grade was at the Middle School, so I had one more year to last through before I would be just a bit safer. I had a few friends. Isaac was one of them. He was sort of weird, but very serious as well. He was 15 because he had waited a year to start school, so he was very intelligent, but at the same time still acted like a guy when he wanted. Another one of my friends was Stan. He was only in 7th grade, but I’d known him for longer. He was really cool and was pretty popular, even though he walked with a limp. He could run pretty fast but walked slowly because of some muscle disease or something. My other friend Peter and I fought a lot, but always seemed to stay friends. He was pretty stubborn, but then again, so was I. I had another friend named Leo. He seemed really interested in Greek mythology for some reason. I mean, he was the sort of teenager than should never be given as much as a freshly sharpened pencil. He was nice at times, and wasn’t usually violent, but when he needed too, he could some serious butt. He was sort of a rule breaker, but had a way of staying out of trouble. Whether it was playing poker till midnight on a school campout or playing games on his iPod during class, Leo could get away with most anything. Well, that changed soon enough.
My trouble really started about two weeks into school. I was doing PE, which at Grove, was farmwork. It was my job to take care of the chickens. I had to feed them, wash their eggs, and make sure their water was filled and not filled with mud and poop. I got some feed and was able to get my way through the crowd of them and to the feeder. There weren’t any eggs, so I went to check on the water, when I noticed the hose connected to it was leaking. I was about to go get something to plug it up, but when I turned around, I heard someone say, “O goddess, accept my offering.” When I turned around, through the rainbow created by the spray of water, an image of a guy appeared. He looked around 18, with an orange T-Shirt that read “Camp Half-Blood” on it. It had what looked like a Flying Horse on it. In his hand was a huge golden sword that had some Greek letters on it that I somehow knew spelled “Anaklusmos.” He had shaggy black hair that was sort of long, like it hadn’t been cut in a while, but it had a gray streak in it. Before I could ask who he was or how I saw him, he sighed in relief.
“Brian! Thank the gods! This is very important and you have to listen!”
I said something genius like, “How did, but the, rainbows?”
“No time for questions! I need your help! You need to get to Camp Half-Blood by next summer! Bring your friends! Especially Stan! It’s in Long Island, so it’ll take a while. Don’t try flying, because Zeus isn’t in the best mood. Just get to New York by next summer! I didn’t want to have to tell you this, but I need to brother. You are the son of Poseidon, so if I were you, I’d study up on Ancient Greece. Oh, and this is vitally important! Don’t trust...” Something came at him from the side, and his sword slashed the image in two and it disappeared. With that, I was alone in the chicken pen, as the son of the Sea God. | | um ..... you spelled some words wrong and you have some sentences that dont make sence and i'm not the best speller either but the small fragment of a chapter i read can be improved a lot , the beginning was good th e warning but you storyline sucks im a writer myself and the half bood thing is too close to the Jackson series and you, dialog dose not make sence your going to use also or oh yah first put as much information and then make it sound like it slipped his mind. my advice start over if you want to use the Jackson storyline then maybe you should make brain a run away tring to run away from something following him and then the thing thats ben following him meet an tell him he is a semi-god which is the term used by the Greeks for half gods. | Is 198,000 miles on a 92 Honda Prelude to many miles for $3,900? the cars apperance is on point nice paint job and body kit butt this is all the work thats been done which will ultimatley lead to my decision to buy the car or not

is their any thing else that should be done or looked upon before the purchase or what should i approach him with for the price | Kelly blue book lists this car in good condition at $2,190.00 for the base model S package and $2,390.00 for the Si 4ws package. these are private party values for person to person sales when a dealership or loan office is not involved.
accessories are not usually included in the price and should not be considered when bargaining the value of the vehicle. from your list of additions, it looks like the only things that are not factory are the "New paint, Body Kit, Performance tires, Custom wheels, Aftermarket Header, Intake and Exhaust. HID Headlights (6000k) Alarm with keyless entry, Upgraded sound system and window tint.
the maintenance is definitely not apart of the asking price, as these costs are exactly what they say they are "maintenance".
the question you need to ask yourself is this... does the extra $1500.00 to $1700.00 seem worth it to you to get a 200,000k mile car that is 18 years old with some good accessories, that may or may not last much longer on the engine that its got under the hood? |
