When you are on the road

One of the things I always try to do before going on a road trip with any of my vehicles is to give it a good “once over” to make sure that everything is in good working order before we leave.  One thing is for sure, having a vehicle break down while on vacation can put a real damper on the fun!  One of the problems is finding out where to take the vehicle for service when you are in an area you are not familiar with!

That’s why the repairpal.com website is a valuable resource to people who take their cars to their trips.  The website helps the users to local reputable auto repair shops around the country.  So if a traveller were to be driving his Chevrolet Silverado on a Dallas vacation and suddenly realized he needs a brake job he could go to the repairpal website and type in the search engine for a Dallas auto repair vendor and what kind of vehicle he is driving and what service is needed.  The website will provide an estimated cost of repair and  trustworthy service locations to take the vehicle.  I think that’s a great resource to know about, don’t you agree?

Attacking the Pope?

I’ve been hearing about a lady who attacked the Pope on Christmas Eve.  The news media says that this same lady tried to attack him last year.  So I’d like to know how and why she even got close to him this year?  Seems logical to me that security should have prevented her from being anywhere near him!  So what’s up with that?
