It is safe to say that the both the readers of Best Auto Resource blog and anyone else for that matter did not see the signs and banners indicating that president elect Donald J. Trump would have the electoral victory that he did on the night of Tuesday November 8th in the year of our lord 2016. All the media sources that the editorial board of the Best Auto Resource blog had access to (and it would surprise no one that we enjoy a wide breadth of media access) indicated that the night would belong to Democratic candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Be that as it may, every citizen of the United States of American and people all over the world following the election all woke up (a little groggy and worse for the wear) on the morning of Wednesday November 9th, 2016 faced with the new reality that Donald J. Trump will take the oath of office on January 20th, 2017 on the steps of the Capitol Building in Washington, D. C. This is true not withstanding all the missed signs and banners indicating that this reality would manifest itself the way it did. Now we must live in this reality and accept it for the truth that it is.
It would seem that there is little use in bemoaning this new reality. It was certainly not the outcome that the editorial board of the Best Auto Resources blog would have wanted. But what the editorial board of the Best Auto Resources blog wants or does not want is not important at this point in time. The election is over. Donald J. Trump is the president elect. Case closed. It is our reasoned policy to continue forth from this point in time with cheerful optimism hoping for the best. We are all Americans after all and we support our president.
It has been one week since Mr. Sackman executed his unintentional Canada goose mascacre on the Apex Peakway and I just thought that I would check in with him and see how he has been holding up. Bob, how are you doing?
BS : Surprisingly I am doing much better. Although I felt kind of guilty at the time it happened in the day since that night I have been processing it all and I know that it was an accident and I ultimately feel that I can forgive myself for what happened.
Do the geese forgive you?
BS : I am not sure that geese possess the ability to forgive. By that I mean, I do not think their intellectual framework includes the concept of or the capacity to forgive another entity for a harm committed upon them.
What makes you think that?
BS : I guess there is no way to know for sure but it is a hunch I have based in no small part upon the size of their heads and the likely size of their brain contained within that little skull.
Just to confirm, there was no damage to your car, correct?
BS : No. Why would my car incurring damage have an effect upon whether I felt guilty about killing some Canada geese?
Well, if there was damage that had to be repaired by a collision repair Salt Lake City you might be less inclined to feel guilt because you had to suffer too.
BS : I am not so sure guilt works that way.
You do a lot of thinking about the capacity of other beings to think don’t you? Geese can’t forgive and damage to your car does not impact your level of guilt.
Describe the moment you hit the Canada goose with your car. What was going on at the time.
BS : I was late for a meeting. It was a Tuesday evening around 7:30 pm and the lighting was pretty dim. I was probably driving a little faster than I should have been. I drove through the intersection of Route 55 and Apex Peakway. Right at that corner is the Wake Med Medical facility. There is a pond in front of the building where the geese like to swim and they are always walking around in the grass near the road eating what ever it is that the geese eat. A lot of times they walk across the street. This is what happened that night.
So you drove through the intersection and you hit a goose that was in the process of crossing the street.
BS : Yes. I did not see him but I knew exactly what happened when I heard and felt the bump on the car.
BS : No there was no real damage so there was no need to take my car to an auto body repair Salt Lake City but the goose was definitely killed.
How did that make you feel?
BS : I felt terrible. Everyone loves those geese. At the time I was worried about making it to the meeting on time so I just kept driving. I remember sitting in that meeting wondering if I had committed a crime and wondering if I should notify someone about what happened.
I don’t think so. I am pretty sure the crime of cruelty to animals requires a level of intent that I don’t think was present. Also the municipality has people on the payroll who’s job it is to pick up animal carcasses. I think you are in the clear.
The newest sign is up and reads, “TREATMENT IS NOW COMPLETE! STAND TALL & CONTINUE YOUR JOURNEY WITH FAITH, HOPE & ALL OUR LOVE!” At the bottom of the sign is a smiley face. Does this mean that there will be no more signs to follow?
SM : I cannot say that. The sign thing really took me by storm. It is encoded within my DNA at this point. I seriously can not picture myself never ever posting another sign on my front porch.
Maybe you could start something new? The treatment is over after all. Perhaps you could open your own sign shop?
SM : I don’t think so. I am sixty years old and retired. I am financially set for life. I don’t want to open up a business at my age.
Do you think Susan appreciated the signs you have been posting on your front porch?
SM : Of course she does! What a silly question. Why do you ask?
Well, I hate to burst your bubble but I have spoken to a few people in the neighborhood who have expressed that your signs make them uncomfortable.
SM : That’s ridiculous. Everybody loves my signs. The amount of effort I put into them combined with the positive sentiments… What’s not to like?
Maybe some people felt that Susan wanted to maintain a certain level of privacy concerning her illness. The intent behind the signs shop Salt Lake City was clearly well meaning. However, their public display made the whole thing, well, public.
SM : You people are being hyper-critical. Can’t a neighbor do something nice for another neighbor?
See, this is part of the reason this whole episode was awkward. People did not want to tell you this because they were afraid of exactly this reaction.
SM : And so you waited until now to tell me? You waited until I posted the very last sign?
I am sitting here with a car who has just been released from an auto body repair Salt Lake City shop. How was your experience, sir?
C : Well the experience of the accident that forced me to go there was not too pleasant. I was in and out of consciousness while I was being worked on by the mechanics. I don’t think I liked that experience because I much prefer to maintain my wits about me. But I recognize that it was necessary to get to the point where I am now. So on balance I would say I am happy to have had the experience.
What exactly was damaged that required repair?
C : I was rear ended by some other fellow who was not paying attention where he was going. My back fender and trunk were dented in. After the accident the trunk wouldn’t close properly.
That does not sound too bad.
C : No. I got off lucky and the collision repair Salt Lake City shop was able to get me back in good repair without too much trouble. It could have been far worse.
How so?
C : Well, my engine could have been damaged for example. A damaged engine is far more expensive to repair (generally speaking) than a dented fender and trunk. The parts are more complicated in an engine and require more finesse to remove and install.
Yes, well thank God that you did not have to have your engine repaired.
C : Agreed. Although I cannot say that I actually believe in a divinity.
I understand. It was just a manner of speech.
C : Right. I get that. It’s just a pet peeve of mine. The language contains all these antiquated references to God that assume the speaker actually believes in God.
S : Life for signs shop Salt Lake City is not that interesting from the standpoint of action. We don’t physically do all that much. However, it is interesting from a sort of Zen perspective that by doing nothing we actually do quite a lot.
I don’t understand.
S : Of course you don’t. Let me see if I can phrase this another way. Signs and banners created by a sign shop when they are performing their function do not move. They do not move (generally speaking) because it makes them easier to see. And by not moving and thus being easier to see they are more effectively conveying their message.
So it is by doing nothing (that is, standing still) that signs do what they are designed to do which is to convey the content of their message.
S : Precisely!
Do you find satisfaction in that?
S : Certainly. As a human your mind is structured in a more complicated way. There are layers of motivations and competing concerns. However, the mind of a sign is as simple as it appears. We need only perform our function well to achieve satisfaction. That is enough for us.
That sounds nice because it is simple and direct.
S : Indeed. Complication for the sake of complication is a highly overrated quality of the human consciousness.
I’m not so sure that the human consciousness is complicated for the sake of complication by nature. I think perhaps that is more a byproduct of our modern times.
S : So it’s a maladaptive behavior of some sort.
Maybe. In truth I have not fully thought this line of reasoning through but it seems right to me.
S : That’s fine. We can leave it at that for now until the next time that we have the occasion to speak to one another.
The latest of the sign shop Salt Lake City displayed by my neighbor reads, “YOU’VE GOT FRIENDS… SUSAN & LOTS OF THEM.” By way of background, I have never actually met this neighbor but I am friendly with other people who live near his house. Apparently he is a bachelor in his fifties or sixties. His lawn is expertly manicured and his house appears to be in very good repair. The “Susan” referred to on his sign apparently is a woman who lives across the street from him and who happens to be suffering from a health affliction the nature of which I am uncertain about but I suspect it to be along the lines of cancer. The signs this neighbor displays are intended to cheer her up. However, it is my impression that they are somewhat embarrassing and uncomfortable for his surrounding neighbors.
What makes his sign shopso uncomfortable is that the intention behind them comes from a place of positivity. In other words they are designed to make the world a better place by putting forth a positive message of encouragement for this unfortunate Susan. This makes it uncomfortable because they are in some ways creating the opposite effect than the one intended. Moreover, because the intent behind them is a positive one it is difficult to approach this well meaning bachelor and tell him that his displays make people uncomfortable. Such is the nature and power that inherently resides within the infinite capacity of a sign or banner. Essentially it is a blank canvass upon which can be displayed an infinite number of messages. Sometimes these messages can have a positive effect upon its intended audience. Sometimes (although a positive effect is intended) they can have a negative effect as appears to be the case between this well meaning bachelor and his unfortunate neighbor named Susan.
Most people think that when they find themselves in the position where their car is sitting on the lift of an auto body Salt Lake City repair shop they are then at the mercy of whatever the mechanic or technician chooses to charge them for his or her services. There are, however, some tactics that the customer of said auto body repair shop can employ to lower the price of the bill he or she may receive.
For example, most auto body repair Salt Lake City shops will charge different rates for the labor associated with mechanical repairs and the labor associated with auto body repairs. The repairs associated with the auto’s body will usually cost less than mechanical repairs. Accordingly any customer who has taken their car to be fixed by an auto body repair shop should take the time to examine the repair invoice in order to make sure that the appropriate rate had been charged for the services rendered. If the repair required is relatively minor, many times it can be repaired using a technique known as PDR. PDR is an acronym which stands for “Paintless Dent Repair.” This technique is less expensive than a repair which employs the use of paint and sanding. The customer can request this technique be used by the mechanic if the damage warrants such a repair.
In fact, if the damage is significantly minor the customer may choose not to take their car to a collision repair Salt Lake City shop in the first place and make the repair themselves. For example, scratches and chipped paint can be remedied by finding the car’s paint code (usually located inside the door jam) and then match it with the appropriate touch up paint. If executed appropriately by the customer, often these repairs can make the damage look as if it was never there.
Tire winterization is an age-old process that vehicle owners have been performing on their tires since automobiles were invented. One of the most common forms of tire winterization to prevent car repair is tire chains or tire chaining.Tire chaining is a relatively simple process. Snow chains that look like netting are affixed to the front tires on a front-wheel drive vehicle or all tires on a four-wheel drive. Generally, the snow chains are sold in pairs and need to be purchased according to the size of the tire.
Snow chains are extremely helpful in winter weather conditions. When driving through snow and ice, tires without chains can slip and have difficulty finding traction. Once a vehicle owner puts chains on their tires, they will notice that the car will handle better in extreme conditions. The tires will immediately find traction.There are some common mistakes when it comes to snow chain installation and upkeep. Most vehicle owners do not understand that the tire chain will fail to work well if not affixed tightly. The chain should be checked occasionally to make sure it is the right tightness. If it is too loose, it could come off and damage your vehicle or wrap itself around your axle. Loose chains can cause you to require car repair.
Also, a common misunderstanding involves the driving speed. When your car is fitted with tire chains, or snow chains, you should not drive over 30 mph. The maximum speed the tire chains can manage varies from product to product. However, it is important to know that there is a maximum speed to follow when you have tire chains. For example, you will have to avoid highway speeds.
Owners should also avoid driving on dry roads with snow chains. Of course, it is not entirely possible to avoid dry road driving all together. It is merely ideal to only use the chains if you will be driving predominately on wet, snowy and icy roads.Research the different forms of tire chains. There are many different types from diamond and link chains to a type of fabric called a snow sock that fits over the tire. Do a little research to find out which style is best for your vehicle and the climate that you will be driving in. You may find that the traditional snow chain is not the best choice for you.
Tire chains aren’t the only way to prevent winter car repair. There are other choices when it comes to winterizing your tires for heavy snow driving or driving during inclement weather. You can have snow tires installed on your vehicle. Snow tires are tires with deep or heavy grooves built into the tire. These tires generally have better traction than regular tires because the deep grooves allow the tire to grab the snow.
