now is love, sweet love

Day 2 of the things I love series:

I love where I work! Today is my one year anniversary -- I can't believe it's been that long! I feel very privileged and fortunate that I work in a place that helps kids. I'm very thankful to be where I am. Now, that being said, feel free to send any and all donations to my place of work as you feel so led! It's tax dedcutible, since we are not for profit! =) We're about to hit a crunch based on the morons and what they are currently up to in our state's capitol. Keep Amy employed, cash and checks will be accepted! =)

love to you all,

Ames

Why do some car companies feel the need to place cheap, tiny little tires on big trucks? I mean, I know they use cheap tires for monetary reasons, but some of this stuff is out of control. For example, if there's room to place a concrete block between the top of your tire and your wheel well, then you need bigger tires. The Ford Ranger is the king of this crime. Click here to see a picture and believe me, it's like a 2 foot gap in person.

Now obviously, you've got to have some space there for the wheels to actually spin, but come on people -- don't underestimate the value a nice set of tires will add to your ride. You may have a nice vehicle, but little matchbox car wheels just make it look like a toy. Do yourself a favor, get for real wheels, bling them up with some 22's that still spin when you're stopped and you'll be the coolest g on the block.

Have a good weekend, homefry!

Yeah, I've got a scar I can talk about ...
But some things in this world
Man, they don't make sense
Some things you don't need until they leave you
And then they're things that you miss

9/11 -- I remember.

But the fact is
It's not enough to pay my taxes
And I can't cry anymore

There's been plenty of debate in our state lately about the governor's proposed billion dollar tax plan. Anyway, I'm not one to talk about politics at all. So, we'll leave this one be. I just thought that the coalition against the tax package should have used that song in their spots.

On to really important news --- Football is here! Roll Tide, Roll! =)

Drown 'em Tide
Every Bama man's behind you
Hit your stride
Go teach the bulldogs to behave
Send the Yellowjackets to a watery grave
And if a man starts to weaken
That's a shame
'Cause Bama's pluck and grit have writ her name in Crimson flame
Fight on fight on fight on men!
Remember the Rose Bowl, we'll win then
So go roll to victory, hit your stride
You're Dixie's football pride
Crimson Tide, Roll Tide, Roll Tide!
