Re: Ever have a dream car?

That's right, Tom.
Just like I'm jealous when I pass bogus "will work for food" people on the
street. I grew up poor, worked my way through school (while driving beater
cars), became president of a large manufacturing company at age 26 and
bought the company before I turned 40.
 I was wired with a work "your ass off to get what you want" mentality, not
a white trash, "let other people pay for my life" mentality. I donate LOTS
of time and money to people and charities for legitimate reasons. We adopt
several families each year at Christmas, and help out families devastated by
cancer, home fires, etc. But I'll be damned if I'll give a dime to a kid
who's looking for an easy way to get a trailer park dream car! Anyone who
reads this, PLEASE donate to your local Salvation Army this holiday instead
of to this "dream car" deal!!!
Sorry for the continued rant!
