I could not possibly hate the rotten state of Illinois more than I do right now. Filling out the paperwork to get my truck titled and registered.....I paid $15,225 for the truck. According to the tax tables, anything with a purchase price under 15K has a set tax depending on the year, in my case it would be $25 owed to the state. Anything over 15K owes $75. So if I had paid a whopping $226 less for the truck, I would owe this rotten state $725 less in tax on the truck

House of Wax- I wonder whether any Dealers take that into account when setting prices. Sounds like a good negotiating topic/tactic to me.

Bought from a private seller. Our bank just took care of putting it in our loan on our last two vehicles. This time I went through our credit union and didn`t even think about it and neither did they. It`s just a load of garbage the state pours the coals to ya like that

just some more graduated taxes (or progressive if you like), you should feel lucky you are one of the lucky rich.

Finally a decent enough day to detail the wifes car and try out the goodies I picked up over the winter. It was like Christmas!

I always find it peculiar the people that don`t go to church all year long yet feel compelled to go on Easter and Christmas

It seems the Justice Dept was able to extract the encrypted files from the San Bernadino terrorist`s phone without Apple`s help. I guess we know that aspect can be thwarted. Now it is computer crunch time to decrypt it.

If you hear and see it at the same time you may be in trouble. Of course that may be intermingled with feeling it.

Actually the huge amount of negative ions released with lightning in a thunderstorm leaves the air so beautiful and clean smelling... It seems to be the best air one can ever breathe and its outside and its free !!!

Now, I will just try to keep away from the lightning strikes...
