So let's review. A few months back there was cash for
clunkers program. Many Americans traded in their monster
SUV's for a certain Japanese import that has been in the news.
Critics claim the clunker program was a failure because it
was suppose to put cash back in the coffers of the Big 3 auto
makers in Detroit Mi. not in the pockets of foreign automakers.
Now many of these folks have to hassle with going to a dealer-
ship to have the problem fixed. Believe me it is a total hassle to
have to deal with car dealerships on any level. A friend [at the time
of the program] told me it would come back to bite us on the ass.
So is it poetic justice or just cruel irony that this would happen to
your new imported car after you snubbed the big 3's catalog of
automobiles? Nope just another pain in the arse bump in the road
of life. I see the CEO of said automaker on the tube saying his
company would work 24 - 7 to fix the problem. He said they
would not stop until it was fixed. Hmmm, not stop, that's the
problem from the get go. Poor choice of words on his part.

Groundhog Day. No Bill Murray sightings. Guess
We'll be safe until spring. Actually I sat through the
film of the same name with my 12 year old. She was
totally amazed by the story of a jerk who has to relive
the same day over and over. The film is a totally quirky
adventure with some very hilarious scenes. Another cool
thing about having kids, getting to share funny films with
them. We laughed all through. Then when it was over
we noticed it was on again, and again and again after that.
We laughed some more. Happy Groundhog Day Bill.
