Early sighting PPV?

PPV (Portable Patrol Vehicle)? 


It has been said that The New York Police Department has ordered several of these specially equipped Goped s. The handlebars have been modified and rear brakes have been added, also the rear rack is an option. It seems that it is the lipo model, which is very good. Way to go Patmont Motor Werks. I really hope that they become part of the police departments vehicles!

Words to Live By-A very important list

ONE. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully. 



TWO. Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other. 




THREE. Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want





FOUR. When you say, 'I love you,' mean it. 



FIVE. When you say, 'I'm sorry,' look the person in the eye. 




SIX. Be engaged at least six months before you get married





SEVEN. Believe in love at first sight.



EIGHT. Never laugh at any one's dreams. People who don't have dreams don't have much.




NINE. Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely. 




TEN.. In disagreements, fight fairly. No name calling.




ELEVEN. Don't judge people by their relatives. 




TWELVE. Talk slowly but think quickly. 




THIRTEEN! ... When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, smile and ask, 'Why do you want to know?'



 
FOURTEEN. Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risk. 




FIFTEEN. Say 'bless you' when you hear someone sneeze.




SIXTEEN. When you lose, don't lose the lesson. 




SEVENTEEN. Remember the three R's: Respect for self; Respect for others; and Responsibility for all your actions.




EIGHTEEN. Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.




NINETEEN. When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.




TWENTY. Smile when picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in your voice. 




TWENTY- ONE.
Spend some time alone.

Should the US sell GM to China?








Should the US sell GM to China? is the question posed in this article, I am hoping that this is just a cruel joke.

Just as they are starting to rebuild, and then this idea drops from the sky.
In my opinion this is stupidity taken to a new level of political ineptitude. The American auto industry can wave goodbye if this 61% sale is finalized.


I know that I am just a dog with an opinion, but i think I'm smarter than the idiot who wants this sale to be signed away. Woof woof.
