    I wonder what they'll do when they find out I cut my own hair. Probably add a line to the 1040CT called "unreported haircuts"

    The roads from New London were clear, but Starbucks is a ghost town. Did I miss the gathering?

    I try to avoid politics to keep my health, but with all of the proposed tax increases inorder, how much overhead spending is going to be cut to reduce our upside down gov.

    They want to make money, STOP SPENDING IT! Wasn't it once said," A penny saved is a penny earned!!!!!" Why don't they try to see how fast the account might grow if they stop shoveling everything out the door.

    Will this be for all cars or just new cars? Either way it's stupid.

    I think its a sales tax increase on car purchases (new or used) if the value is over 50K. Also, it looks like the trade in value amount will no longer be exempt, so whatever you get for your trade, you will still have to pay the tax on the entire value of the car you are purchasing...sucks

    Sounds like the "taxachusetts" disease has spread to Connecticut. Hope the politicians here aren't taking notes. They haven't thought of that here yet.

    Two words.....TEST DRIVES!!! :D

    If anyone wants a calendar...I have one left that was ordered but I can't seem to contact the guy who ordered it. So I'd rather get it into somebody's hands and not get stuck with an extra, I'll bring it on Sunday!

    Very cool, but did I see one driver do a hand-over-hand? When I drive an F1 car my hands never leave the wheel, except to shift ;)

    The weather is looking promising for Sunday. I think it may be nice enough to make it the first run of the season to Glastonbury in the TR!

    I just got back from a trip so I missed you guys this morning. Next Sunday I will be loaded up with the girl scout cookies for those who ordered. If you can't make it I will just keep driving them these on Sundays or make arrangements with me so I can get them too you. I think this is going to be a great spring!

    Sunday looks like sunny and 45 degrees. Time to increase the number of horses getting out of the barn.
    Going to try to make it with the 308 and the TR, and maybe a friend with a 430 spider.
    See you there....

    The TR is gassed up and ready to roll. I was disappointed with the weather last Sunday, but this week is looking good. I'll be there with the F-Car.
