Cash For Clunkers Turned Out To Be A "CLUNKER"

Sounds really good! Don't you think so?

Thinking about the whole "Cash for Clunkers" passed by Congress and signed by President Obama, there will be (In My Opinion) a unwanted effect to the part of the country where we reside.

Here are a few of the problems I foresee:

1. Auto parts stores will eventually see a slack in business due to less used automobiles in the market.

2. There will be less used vehicles to purchase especially for someone who simply needs another car and yet they can't afford the price of a new one.

3. Need a used part? There will be fewer of these also because the government is having them scraped. Junk yards will be getting slimmer.

I understand that we need to change some unwanted consequences to our dependence on foreign oil. I believe this is a noble cause. The solution is simple. Drill here in our country for oil!

With the recession the way it is and also the unemployment rate is high, we probably need to keep some of those "clunkers" around. We may not be able to get the loan to purchase that new clunker to be.

A Coin Flip Vacation!

My wife Tammy and I took a crazy vacation using the direction of not a GPS, map, or compass. We simply did something different. We flipped a coin and took off with a tank of gas and a cooler of cold cuts.

We had talked about it for years. Taking a road trip not knowing were we would end up. When we were at the end of Blackberry Lane, (The road we live on) we took a coin and flipped it! That would tell us the direction we would head. Heads to the right and tails to the left. We went left. Every time we came to a intersection, I would flip the coin. If it was heads, we would continue to go straight. Tails meant I would flip it again to see if we went L or R.

We ended up in Chattanooga, TN. The next morning we took a tour of "Ruby Falls". Ruby Falls is a cave that starts out at 260 feet below ground at Look Out Mountain with a temp of 60 degrees farenheight year round. As we took the tour, we were lead to a water fall that was the most beautiful natural sight I have ever seen!

The man who sunk the shaft to open the cave back up, (the mouth had been closed by the government years earlier) named the water fall after his wife "Ruby". She would often go there to rest her mind from the cares of this world.

It cost around $16.00 for each adult and it was worth every penny of it too.

Find you a coin and flip it. May be the best trip you have ever took. It has been for me.

This is Wrong (CLICK ON THE WORD "WRONG").

No matter what your opinion is, what happened here is truly wrong. No one should be subject to any violence for their political vies in this country be it Democrat or Republican!
