What a trooper! Shia LaBeouf talks about his
return to the set to finish filming Transformers with a broken hand that
had to be written into the script.
Anyhow, I took the sergeant up on the deal he offered. After
three months with the 101st in Dak To and Tuy Hoa, I was sent on a
temporary duty assignment (TDY) near the DMZ to learn field station
operations from the 8th Radio Research Unit at Trai Bac Station in Phu
Bai. From there it was off to Pleiku where we worked first in support of
the 25th Infantry Division and later the newly arrived 4th Infantry
Division.
If you are one of those
hard-working people who like to drive in style in their trucks, then
here is one just for you. Previously the GMC Sierra Denali was only
available as a luxury light duty pick-up. That has now changed with the
Heavy Duty line slated for 2011. It features a four-bar chrome
perforated grille and ride on an all new chassis. There will be chrome
accents on the doors and door handles. Inside will have a Bose audio
system, power-adjustable pedals, 12-way power seats and brushed aluminum
trim. This is the first time the luxurious Denali trim will be offered
on one of GMC's toughest trucks. http://www.infoplease.com/ipka/A0883578.html&rct=j&q=&esrc=s
This didn't happen over night. My wife and I separated
seven months before she filed for divorce. We stayed together though. We
still had a sex life, we still did things with each other and we still
took care of one another. Just like we did when we lived together. We
both liked the option of having our own space though. Sure, we missed
each other but it was nice for both of us to have the option of saying
to the other, "I just want to chill at home alone tonight" and send the
other home. The dark
figure standing, staring by the street, is noticed by the two men in the
front seat of the truck, they stare but keep going, --trees blowing to
his right and left, the waves of the Great Lake of Superior, makes a
humming sound, and everything else, as if you were in the middle of a
hurricane, the stranger stands erect yet, never moving. He sees the eyes
of the passenger in the Ford-truck, a small figure, a man of about
forty, the driver calls him Skip, and he hears that. The taller man at
the wheel, his arms are solid, and frozen to the wheel, is called Amery,
for some reason you know he knows that.
Linda moved to Florida and got a job as a,
school teacher, here in the area. She wanted to buy a house so that the
kids could have a home. Lo and behold! She gets a notice that Ford Motor
Credit is suing her for the deficiency balance on the
buy
truck new that they repossessed from
Outdoor Bob. The deficiency was over $5,500.00 Even though the Judge
instructed Bob to make the payments, he didn't. The judge never thought
to check with Ford Motor Credit to see if they would accept Outdoor Bob
as the new guarantor on the loan. They of course wouldn't have done it
anyway. After all, Bob's credit was terrible. He tipped his hat a bit, raising it off is forehead
and when he did I noticed steel eyes. Eagle eyes that I imagined could
spot a leaf hopper miles away. He screwed up his mouth, flicked the
straw out the window and opening the door, said, Well, let's go. The end of the story is
we were able to get the lawyer for Ford Motor Credit to accept a much
lesser amount because he was trying to get a default judgment on his
fees. That was illegal here in Florida, so with his hands in the cookie
jar, he just wanted to get it over rather than have his name placed in
front of the Florida Bar Assn. The situation might sound like a win-win but some
people say "Cash for Clunkers" is a speed bump, slowing customers who
might want a used car. Used car dealers at Naff Auto Sales told WSLS the
program could force people into buying a new car. Another possible
problem, Clunkers traded in with the program have to be destroyed,
meaning they won't end up for sale on a used car lot. Better for the
environment, bad for used car business. But many say it's a trade we
need to make. Many don't want to put the brakes on the program. In an
interview with WSLS, the president of Berglund Automotive said close to
40 people have taken advantage of the government program so far. They
say "Cash for Clunkers" is giving customers the kick they need to get a
new car.
