Default Look Ma!! No blood
Just got done doing and oil change and rplacing front pads and rotors. And, I managed to avoid the family curse of bleeding any time we touch tools!!

The brakes were shot!! I can't believe I let them get as bad as they were. Put in Raybestos PG rotors and ceramic pads.

I share your shame, I let my brakes get like that, once. never again.
Now that I have the wife'* safety to worry about I keep up on even the stupidest of things on the cars.
