Why of course we would have to have an endowment for the board to keep it running for perpetuity. 10 mil or so...No chance of it ever being shut down... plus it would allow the board to trustees of the board to aquire certain automobiles... to be used as the selling dealers intended... of course! The board would need to get non profit status though so there would be no taxes on all of the "new" assets!

Now certified. The little woman gave in. Hope the car is still available.

I won't even get it until next spring or summer. That's OK. Everybody needs a little something to look forward to. Also must convince the little woman every garage space should have a car in it.

However you talked the wife into it, you'll have to share your methods? . I could never seem to win those arguments so she said choose....and I did! . On that thought, here's a Friday afternoon ditty. . Have a great weekend fellas! ~ Pete

-

The wife's finally left me,
fancy dishes and all.
Now there's DZ's in the crock pot,
and BE's in the hall.

She told me she gets everything,
and I get the junk.
like that stupid thing in the garage,
that says Dana on the trunk!

She took all the pillows,
all the blankets gone too.
But I sleep better now,
with my L72.

Life would be better without me,
now it all would be fine.
So I pawned my gold ring,
bought aluminum, sweet L89?

She said I'd be sorry,
and had me over a barrel.
Just lucky for me,
she's never heard of Dick Harrell.

She emptied the bank,
and took all of my dough,
it's just me and the dog now,
.......and 9560!

~ Pete

There are several ways to get your way with the little woman. Depends a lot on the woman...they vary you know.

Never approach a woman with something she will consider "bad news" when she's not in a great mood. This, of course, may take quite a bit of time. Never hit 'em with a full frontal blow. Kinda sideswipe the issue on the first approach. You are planting a seed, not planting the tree....yet.

Next, you start the build-up for your purchase. You've got to make this car (it's always a car) sound like the greatest thing ever. A once in a lifetime opportunity (like the last one you bought). But, but, but, poor you will not be able to take advantage of this rare opportunity. Poor you. The next step is critical......time to stop....more later. It's cocktail hour!
