The car passed inspection, and it only took two new tires to get it done. Woohoo! The tires were not in any way, shape or form a surprise, as Harold the Hoopty Car was doing this interesting wobbly-thing when in motion. And, like, the rear passenger tire needed air every two days. Minor stuff.

(This was for a class that several coworkers are taking on "Deviant Behavior" (don't worry, the instructor goes out of his way to make it clear that "deviant" means "different," not "bad"). I told one of them, "If you need anything defined, come find me, because whatever it is, I know someone who's doing it.")
