I think Ian's okay here; it all depends on how completely he cares to cover his ass. Tyler, on the other hand, is really okay.

I don't recommend parking it in Portland and it needs new struts, but I'm sure she'll at least enjoy the cupholders. I do wonder, however, if she will also be concerned with the police faking a breathalyzer and her body becoming possessed by a rogue, resignation-forcing ghost. Damn libelous ghosts... when will they stop forcing resignations from innocent people? If it’s indeed libel, then she can take my ‘92 Civic.
