The average age of our two cars is seventeen years. I might buy something newer if my finances dramatically improved, but I’m also leery of all of the “features” in the newer cars. When I look at new car prices, I think about what I could do with the (2000) BMW if I put two or three thousand into it, especially given how new stick shifts are an endangered species.
I hope that SCOTUS will force a rollback of all the illegal mandates coming from Washington.
“There are countries that do not tolerate speech critical of the government and its institutions. There are countries where citizens who publicly disagree with the actions of the government and its institutions are condemned as disloyal citizens, investigated and tried. There are countries where people with political views that differ from those of the governing authorities are subject to governmental abuse and ruin just because of their political opinions. We have a name for these countries. They are totalitarian.“
Like the 4th of July, too many of our holidays have lost their meaning, becoming just an excuse for partying and a three-day weekend. When you grill your meat, think of those who lost so many holidays so that you could have yours.
Mine has been gone for almost a quarter of a century now, but if you can, show yours the appreciation she deserves. None of us would be here without them.
