CS has presented me with a man who can hold a conversation.
I don’t even remember who wrote who first.
Whilst driving along the motorway the other day, I felt the vehicle was steering ever so slightly to the left. Whenst I was checking the relative positioning of my testicles I noticed the one on the left was sitting slightly lower than the right. By positioning a cigarette packet under the left testicle hence raising it, I noticed the vehicle started tracking in a straight line again, which was lucky considering I was towing a car trailer at the time. And it saved me valuable money on a wheel realignment.
What's going to happen, if you're at the supermarket and you see salami is selling two-for-one so you get two. You've already got four grapefruits in the trolley. As the trolley goes over a bump, the salamis bounce around and settle in a crossed position. Which we all know what that means. And so hastily you try to cover up things with some zucchinis, which unfortunately sends out a message to a different crowd. And so, in exasperation, you try to cover the whole thing up behind a French loaf of bread. Please help, I'm so confused right now.

Support our tax dollars, buy local...
In a technology and futuristic driven world, choices of patronizing high quality products is getting easier (or more difficult depending on where you are).
Putting my hard earned money on material things that are of importance in our daily lives is one of my struggles. Yet the place and manner on which these material things are made matters most to me.
I only buy those that lasts forever, so durable the money I spend is so worth it.
Where am I going with this blog? Just to lolly gag on our attitude towards cheap versus expensive products. The lowering of our consumer standards and sold to the cheap goods flooding the market even more pervasive now in the first and second worlds. A most rare practice until 15 years ago.
So I hardly bought any foreign products since I lived here largely because of QUALITY, but even more compelling reasons are due to patronizing these goods and put our citizens to work. With the exceptions of German, Swiss, UK, Italian and Australian products, most goods produced today are of pathetic quality.
My specific reason for being a loyal local consumerist is that safety and durability.
Last week for the first time I bought a European SUV, the X5, and now I'm lured into the powerful statement of "the ultimate driving machine". Not that I've not been sold to the great performance of these vehicles just that I defended the need to support our local products. So with the exception of this, I've been driving all American made cars, my favorite of course is the Corvette and my Cobra, both has all provided me with the adrenaline pumping thrill every time I needed to beat my blues. Those 400 HP, and equally, capable pound feet of torque was just enough to make me feel alive. What a thrilling experience, my only true addiction. Driving fast and performance oriented vehicles with dedicated manual transmission.
Well my town car is parked as it can't handle the demands of the deep snow and brutal iced up roads in cold Minnesota.
My children are now sneering at their mom for having bowed down to abandon my hell bent support for my local products. Well I'll just have to apologize. I have to admit, I'm loving it, even better than my 2011 SRX and Equinox leased for two years.
Lately, I have been wondering how products can be described as one thing in marketing, and be something different in reality. Of course I am talking about baked beans. A more accurate description would be beans boiled/stewed in a tomato sauce, as they show no signs pf being baked as such. I never heard anyone say "I'm baking a cake, and I only used 2 bottles of tomato sauce", and at the supermarket the tomato sauce is nowhere near the other baking ingredients.
The electric car revolution is in full swing, and these vehicles are now more mainstream than ever. However, there are still drawbacks to owning an electric car which is why the market is still developing. For gas-powered vehicles to be fully replaced, an electric car will need to function in almost all the same ways.
In addition, an electric car needs to have an affordable entry-level option. The marketplace for electric cars is quite expensive, and repairs can be quite costly as well.

Further details on each reason:
i was thinking: there's not a lot of romance on CS. it would seem like the original CS members can't find a spark in this tribe. then i was thinking: maybe if we tag ourselves CS and MD, we can try a different tribe. then i was thinking: maybe gather some volunteers for a search party, head hunt or perhaps kidnap members from eharmony or penty of fish...to be tagged accordingly.
or, we can focus on what's really important, Trump
i just thought of it. rather then build a wall, why don't the people complaining, switch places with the ones who want to cross our borders illegally? then the complainer can put their mouth to work on the country that is being fled and maybe work for a change making those people not want to leave? it costs the government no money if both pairs of shoes fit agreeably
Have you ever sent a personal email to the wrong recipient? Lol. I did. Just now. Waiting for any fallout. We work together tomorrow
The subject line read : A good size
For real. This is my reality I’m not a scammer.
