Good morning.... Every wonder what a blog is? How about a twitter? I do. When I was in high school no one had a calculator much less a computer. We used slide rules! Wow, how things change. The automobile business is really changing at a rapid pace. Senator Corker sent a letter out this week requesting dealers attend a meeting about the state of the industry. I will be going on May 29Th and will let you know what he says. After listening to him in December, I have not been a particular fan of Senator Corker. I do not think the government "gets" it when it comes to my industry. They are paying attention now only because the sales tax revenues that are created by the car sales is in half so their budgets are crashing in on them!

Random thoughts about the business:
Do you think that car dealers are the problem with GM and Chrysler? They do not cost the factory a dime. So how come the government wants to get rid of many of us? I realize fewer dealers will allow the few of us that are left to make more money and invest in nicer facilities. If they wanted fewer dealers why did they always replace the dealers that have left Memphis over the last ten years? Why is Gm sending out these letters now only 20 days before possible bankruptcy? Who decides who gets what and is the criteria they are using fair? Why should it be fair, life is not fair? Fewer dealers means you will eventually pay more not less for cars and trucks.... does the governement want you to pay more for the same thing??? Why?

Random thoughts about life this morning?
Why is getting up to exercise so hard? This morning around 5 it was really hard. My friend Billy says no rest for the weary......... is he right?
