So I come out of work today and try to open my door and it was a
little frozen.  So I give it a tug and the door handle snaps off of my
'99 Hyundai Accent GSI.

What do I do and what's it gonna cost me?

Crazy glue?

Damn Canadian winters!

Wait a few years and global warming will take care of that problem!  :-)

So the dealership wants $200Cdn+ to replace this.

Does that sound high to you?

Also, is this something I could do?

I'm no mechanic but I have used a screwdriver before.

on how to fix the door handle.

I've found a garage that will do it for $150Cdn and I'm just going to
take it there.  From what I hear taking the door apart and putting it
back together is a real pain in the a.s.

I also called around and can't locate a part from a wrecker.

You could always try eBay. $200 for a piece of plastic and labor is
just nuts.

What are you talking about?

Were you offended that I took the lord's name in vain or something?

OH NO....
First you bought an import to support the global warming terrorist asian
economy, then took the lord's name in vain.

What next?  Shopping at wal mart?

Allah will punish you for sure.

Get some Gorilla Glue at your hardware store. This stuff hardens like
iron if you follow the directions. I find it to be much more effective
than crazy glue.

Perhaps he should call the graduate  lady lawyer that ran the Justice
department in the firings of U.S Attorneys from The Reverend Pat
Robertson's Law university that took the fifth amendment to  represent him
for such terrible language as he used .  That is what is the matter with
our country and the whole world for that matter today is that the religious
f****heads have taken it over. May a thousand fles infest his undergarments
or ten thousand camels  raid his tent. Course you religious F****heads
wouldn't drive a Hyundai anyway. More appropriate a Hummer or an Escalade
to  church to show off your wealth.

Yep, the religious fruitcakes have taken over the US. It is fit and proper
to start a war, lie about it. kill people by the wholesale, rape and
pillage, shock and awe, use 3/4 of the world's oil reserves, and then
chastise some old boy (bloak) for saying an expletive. Terrible thing he
did.. He will rot in the fires of hades for that, for sure. The phony a**
ho**s that chastise the guy will stant in church on Sunday morning and
declare what a good person they are, then go out and call the cops pn a
legless person  in the driveway begging for food because he makes the
"Jesus" fold look bad.

You are pretty brave for an anonymous poster.  Funny how that seems to
always be the case...

To My UK friend. Went to your site. Great content for a Hyundai owner.

Now to the content of my other message. Pat Robertson's law school is a
joke. It is recognized as being a farce and a graduate of it is less than
capable about practicing law than I am doing brain surgery on the Pope.

Our Justice department here in order to appease the far right religious
Fundamentalists that run the country has hired an inordinate number of
their graduates in our justice department. There is a scandal brewing right
now in this country that the head of the Department, Alberto Gonzalez fired
at the insistance of Karl Rove, Bush's political advisor, all those US
attorneys that had proscecuted a member of the president's own party for
wrongdoing. (There has been a lot of it too) and that Karl Rove (the
political Hack) had been the one who told the head of the department to
fire.

The 108 from the religious screw loose school were exempt from the
dismissals. You are fortunate in the UK in that religious Christian
fundamentalists do not run your country and have not polluted it with their
crazed interpretations of what is good and what is evil.

Lastly, the Christian fundaments here believe that a Christian has the
sworn duty to use up all the natural rescources of the planet so as not to
leave the anti-Christ any fuel after Jesus returns which will probably be
within a year or two. Hence, there is no global warning and the war in Iraq
is a good and fine thing as long as gasoline remains cheap and plentiful
for their abundance of fuel wasting,  vehicles that get 4-5 MPG of
Gasoline. Some of those churched folks now are questioning the wisdom of
their leaders and maybe think that the scientists may be on to something
with this Global warming stuff. They have been rebuked however as
Blasphemers and it would not be surprising if they were stoned to death for
such blasphemy.

Why don't you take this crap to some more appropriate forum?  Everyone's
entitled to their beliefs on things, but this isn't the right forum for you
to be bashing those who you don't agree with.

Really, I seem to see you dispelling beliefs in another thread about global
warming. Could it be that you are a hypocrite just like you accuse Gore of
being about using all that power in his home? If you had investigated
rather than spewing  the conservative bull you aspire to, then you would
have found that Gore uses purchased windpower.

Course folks like you don't investigate, just spew and utter half truths.
I'll make you a deal. Don't spew your pollution and I won't mine.

The difference is that Mike and I have the courage to use our real
names.  That is a big difference between us and you.  And we are also
civil in our discussions.

Damn, you really DO use your real name!!  You gave the city you commute
from/to in another post recently.  You really do have a long driveway from
the aerial photos (although they are fairly low-res)!!

I think the closest I've ever been you where you live is in Bloomsberg when
a friend of mine went to college there.  That still has to be 0.5 to 1.0
hour from where you live.  Talk about the boonies.  It must be nice though.

Why do you use your real name?  I mean, I use mine too, but not completely.

Well, most folks with any skill at all can track your posts down anyway
if they really want to.  And I simply believe in standing behind what
you say and not hiding behind a tree.

Where'd you see my aerial photos?  I don't remember posting them here,
but then my memory isn't what it used to be!

Good enough, I was just curious.  It seems like an unnecessary risk to me
considering the amount of loonies out there, but you are right that if they
really want to find you, they will.

The aerial picture was from Mapquest, which I believe uses Google.

OK.  The reason I was wondering is that I'm a pilot and have taken a
number of aerial shots of my house and property from an airplane and I
thought you were talking about those rather than the satellite or high
altitude photos the government takes.  I didn't remember posting any of
mine anywhere, but I've sent them to friends so who knows where they
might turn up!

I figured as much because you've said you were a pilot before.  I
believe these were satellite photos, and they aren't too high-res at
all.  Seems your area doesn't get the high-res photos taken often...at
least not for public viewing.  Although the pictures of my house/area
are very old (more than 8 years), I can see the previous owner of my
house in the back yard with his car in the driveway.  One more level of
detail and I could read his license plate.
