Hey energy workers, ask your wives why they voted to get rid of the family income, so your kids could go to bed hungry.

You Rest Your Foot on the Brake Pedal.
"Just resting your foot on the brake pedal will cause very light pressure on the brake pads thereby causing premature pad and rotor failure and having a negative effect on gas mileage. I have replaced rotors and pads with less than 5,000 miles on them when they should have lasted for 80,000 miles or more." (Thanks to Frederick Ciampi for the tip, a FB friend.)
If I see your brake lights, then I know that you're going to do something. If you slow down and start turning onto a side street, then I know that you're going to turn on a side street.
Now let's say that you're going to slow down to turn but before you turn on your brake lights, you turn on your signal light giving me more warning so I'll have less of a chance to run into you and maybe kill you.
Did you know that just resting your foot on the brake pedal and long before the brakes are engaged, your brake lights go on? (Site owner.)

You Don't Press The CLEAR Button
After finishing gassing up your car you should push the CLEAR button on the gas pump key pad. The clear button is located on the left on the bottom of the key pad, to the left of the # 0. Without clearing, others can use your credit information to get gas from your card. Only when another purchaser inserts their credit or debit card does your information clear if you didn't clear your purchase. Although a lot of information about this has not been disseminated it stands to reason of why the CLEAR button was added to the keypad. Obviously this warning doesn't pertain to cash customers.
You Don't Buy American Made
Would you buy something from someone who just killed your son? Depends if he's selling the product cheaper than the other guy. Saving $50.00 is more important than your dead son.
True story: When the US was still making VCR's a lady went to buy one. She was shown one made in the USA and one made in Japan. She told the clerk that she would never buy anything made in Japan as her son was killed in the Pacific by the Japanese during WWII. When she found out that the one made in Japan was cheaper she bought that one.
Blood may be thicker than water but money is thicker than blood.
Why are we in such financial straights and most of our factories are shut down, simple, we buy the cheapest garbage without regard to our economy. How much do we buy from China today?
Moral of the story is: Want a job, keep your job, buy American.
