When life takes a %*&^ on you, do you sit in it or get out of it, even if you stink either way?

1. Don't park your car anywhere near the road. Park in the bushes, in your back yard, in the church parking lot, in a dark alley, or in the reserved for employees parking garage behind your work instead of on the street in front of your work

2. SERIOUSLY weigh this though out in your mind ---- If some blankety blankety blankety blankety blankety blank woman with no insurance, five kids, a history of drug problems, a baby on the way, who just got evicted and is on her way down to try to get on WIC, Welfare, Housing support, and Medicaid has her brake rotor lock up and smashes the entire left side of your car to the point it is not drivable, doing more damage to your car than her own, and has to have someone come and take her toddler home because she is not fit to remain with the child after having had the accident, can you afford to have not paid the $30 extra per month over the last 36 months ($1080 for you who don't want to do the math) and instead have to eat the cost of losing your car? Really? You can? Hmmm...
