I have heard this, and I think I'm fully prepared for whatever the fallout may be when OM tosses her to the curb.

I'm just hoping he waits until the divorce is final. Because Plan B->Plan D means I never have to entertain another word from her.

Fred,

Since this has already ruined your day, why don't you see if you can ride along with Mr. Repo. That could be loads of fun!


BS - me 56
XWH - 57

12/25/06 - Dday - WH promised NC. Plan A in effect. Thought we were in recovery.

6-3-07 - Dday#2 Found out NC never took place and A never ended. Found MB NC promised again, but WH would not write NC letter.

9/07 - Dday #3. Still lying and sneaking around. Plan B implemented
WH wants nothing to do with me

Divorced as of 12/09 after 36 years

I don't think so, Chai.

My attorney said that since I had a key, I could just go get the Jeep myself. But that would leave her with a key.

The benefits to taking this route are twofold: (1) I stay out of it. Even if the guy is seen driving away in the Jeep, it isn't me and (2) They have a lot where they will keep the Jeep for 15 days -FREE- so that if she comes looking for it, she won't find it at my home!

Am I being a coward? Maybe. I say I'm being consistent with Plan B, and staying out of any possible interaction with her.

Besides, the guy says that if there is anything of value in the Jeep when he takes it, that becomes the "bargaining tool" for the return of her key.

I'm hoping the guy is very large with a sloping forehead.

The Jimmy Hoffa Dark Plan B for Life! I am in that. The divorce is final 3-years on June 13th and I have not spoken to Wayzilla for something around 32 months!

Your gonna love it Fred!

Best not 2 warn her. She could park the jeep somewhere 2 hide it.

I live on a narrow, dead end street on a hill in NE LA. We used 2 get people living in one of the big gray box apartment buildings a block away parking their cars on our street (not a lot of room even for OUR cars) and hiking down the hill home.

A neighbor told me recently that when he notified a local repo company where one of these cars was, the guy said he didn't even know our street existed. Now that they do, we haven't had people hiding their cars on our street!

You want a Luis Pizarro. EX-MARINE repo man.

At 8:16pm this evening --less than two hours since I handed my key to the repo man-- I received a telephone call on my cell phone.

"We have something for you."

About the time I was handing over the key, one of the repo man's "scouts" spotted The Leopard driving into her apartment lot, and she and her dog got out and went into a unit.

Likely alerted by the sound of the winch or other "fastening noises," The Leopard came out to see my Jeep already on the truck, ready to roll away. I wasn't told of their conversation, but I was informed that she refused to surrender her key.

Maybe she'll find use for it as a necklace ornament.

In the morning I will receive a vehicle condition inspection report. The repo man will even give me 15 days of FREE storage in their remote facility (you can't even locate it on Google). I think before I put it in the garage and remove the license plates, I'll take it for a drive to the beach this weekend.

I hope OM doesn't mind becoming a taxi service.

Didn't you say you choose your battles wisely and intend to win the ones you choose? Well, you won. Nothing cowardly about that.

Repo men. You gotta love 'em.

I know this is just a show; but with Operation Repo, a recurring line they use is "If you give us the key you can get your stuff out."

So hopefully, some of the Leopard's stuff was left inside, too! stickout
