Got my new Smart Car today

and, a kinda funny story. Was mostly thru the closing, and really appreciated the fact that my brand new salesperson, Patti Trujillo, who happened to be less than 5 ft and under 100 lbs, not that that had anything to do with anything, agreed not to try to 'sell me' a bunch of accessories. Anyway, about 3/4 way thru the transaction, there was a big disturbance on the street, right in front of the dealership, as about 8 cop cars and 12 cops, with guns drawn, hiding behind their cruisers, hauled 3 perps out, threw 'em on the hot asphalt, cuffed 'em, with knees in their backs, and drug 'em off to jail. Bottom line, Patti, the new salesgirl, FORGOT to have me pay for the car, and I forgot, too. Was on my way home, when I got a call from her, pleading with me to come back and pay for it. Messed with her for awhile, then turned around, went back and paid for it. Am actually really happy w/the new Smart car after I drove it home at 75 MPH on the turnpike. Pretty cool little car...

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store

where we picked up asparagus and baby back ribs. Carol and I went for the same stuff (serarately, today), cuz it is so good, AND a great price. Had it for dinner tonight. WOW. One of my fav dinners, as the ribs start out in the crock pot, then finish on the grill, with fresh asparagus. (and bread pudding for dessert) I LOVE this time of year...
