As befitting a government policy, Georgia’s Tax Holiday this weekend is thing of wonder.
You can purchase gym suits tax free, but you must pay tax on martial arts attire.
You can purchase bow ties tax free, but you must pay tax on head bands.
You can purchase lingerie tax free, but you must pay tax on athletic supporters.
Got an email addressed to the Master’s Miata Club from someone offering us a discount on a group buy of roll/style bars. Minimum order of 20. We have 37 cars in the club, I know of 4 that already have a bar, that means we need 61% of the remaining cars to buy one to qualify for the discount. That’ll happen. Maybe they should have taken the time to look at our website. I passed it along to everyone in the Club, just in case mass hysteria takes place.
Not only that I just checked his web site, Frenzy, and the group buy price is $10 off for the chrome style bar. WOW, what a deal. 😉
They have changed to ad for the Buick Rendezvous over to a New Orleans flavored ad as opposed to the last version with the old black & white 1930’s feel. The earlier one had the Edgar Winter Group’s, “Frankenstein” playing in the background and to me it was just a little too true. While the Pontiac Aztec is the actual Frankenstein’s monster, the Rendezvous is pretty much the Bride of Frankenstein. It looks a little nicer, but still seems to be tossed together from bits that fit together, although oddly.
I got progressive lens bifocals about a year ago. Kept misplacing the $15 drugstore reading glasses. But now I find I have become lazy, I look through the magnifying portion all the time. Now everything seems fuzzy without the glasses. Have my eyes just deteriorated over the last year or have they gotten lazy only because they can look through the magnifying portion?
No X-Files tonight. I thought for sure tonight was Skinner’s turn to be in a coma. 🙂 I guess Fox didn’t want to try and compete with the Oscar broadcast. Humph, is the demographic of one even remotely the same as for the other? I could see in the X-Files’s heyday not competing with the Emmy’s, but come on. With the sorry state of the show I would have thought they would be more worried that someone like me might tune in, see they were not on, figure that the run was over and never try and tune in again.
After 8 days of nothing THC sends me an email with the particulars needed to log in and re-upload my site. By Thursday (3/21) the Master’s Miata Club web site is back on line. Not only that the problem I used to have with FTPing is now gone. So why the rant, you ask? It is two days later and for some reason tonight getting to the site is as slow as molasses in January. Should I join my brother rats in deserting THC and taking my domain name and running? My heart says stick it out, things will be fine, but my head says get out….
I started getting the Lockegnome Windows Daily newsletter again. So I tried to resubscribe to the missing 3 using yesterday’s technique and got back three similar messages:
Sorry, but the email address ‘Brian_the_Red@mastersmiataclub.org’ is already a member of ‘lgtech’. Because you are already subscribed, ListManagerSQL did not subscribe you again.
I guess I will have to unsubscribe and resubscribe to get these missing ones.
