Captain Art's thought for the day - saving bucks

A little bit more on saving bucks:

Today I had to revert back to an old ability of mine which I really didn't want to do: automobile mechanic. I have a Blazer which needed lower ball joints and with the price of fuel being what it is I chose not to let the local automotive shop do the work & did it myself.

Instead of doing just the lowers I chose to do the upper ball joints as well. Savings: about $400 big bucks. I'm sure everyone can find a better way of cutting corners than doing automotive work. Maybe you won't eat out as often......maybe you won't buy that new suit or major appliance you were looking at.

One thing is certain.......for the average person cutting costs somewhere to be able to put gasoline in your tank is a certainty. I'll still pray that God will bless America while our short sided politicians are running around with their heads stuck up their behinds.

Until then, good friends, calm seas and great fishing........God Bless America, Captain Art
