Unhappy MORE BAD LUCK

I bought my 99 cobra a month ago and it threw a rod and blew a hole in my block on the way home. I got it yesterday and it runs great. Two hours ago I was driving to get the inspection done and I was going 65 mph and WHAM! My hood flies up, shatters my windshield, dents the daylights out of my roof, and cracked the hood everywhere. I want to cry. I leave in three weeks with the Air Force. I guess my question is, do I have really bad luck or is this just life?


PS-If anyone wants to give me a hood, they can.

I guess it didn't click shut completely. I know I should always double check. I just really thought it was shut. I'm still kicking myself.

Jonathan, I'm still crying. You wanna punch me? It might ease the pain. I'm still sure it was shut. Check out the other thread I started.

So why is this in the tech section?

Relax I'm joking around... I'm really sorry to hear about your 2 mishaps.

Picked up a saying a while back, "If it was raining p*ssy, I'd get hit with a d*ck"
Guess it applies to you and your luck as well.
