Random Scrap:
It was going to cost me 300 dollars to exchange the radiator but I decided that trying to somehow glue the hole was going to be sufficient. The man working at a garage showed me a pile of broken ones from exactly the same model lying in the corner but I preferred not to believe him. My bank account was running low again, every dollar counted and I decided to keep the money I got from my parents. Later, when we stopped about 100 miles from Las Vegas it would remind itself through a hissing sound when we parked somewhere in the sun of the Nevada desert near cactuse for a toilet. We would then spend the remaining distance stopping at every exit or the side of the freeway filling in the water after driving while watching in panic the turning pointer of the temperature gauge. Praying that the whole car is not going to explode but insisting we should keep going. The AAA was free only for eight miles. Eventually we made it to the Monte Carlo hotel and in the morning I found a mechanic who exchanged the radiator on the same day for one hundred dollars more.
