Summer Sports

Summer Sports 

Well, it’s that time a year again, summer sports season. Many of our children are in athletic events such as baseball, soccer, basketball, track, etc. For those of us who have children who are not athletically inclined maybe they are starting a new dance season, gymnastics season, or piano. Whatever the activity, this time of year, we find ourselves spread very thin as we try to get our children from place to place or practice to practice. There are those of us that volunteer to help other parents out by taking other teammates to and from practice and games as well. I’m sure most of you have heard the term ‘soccer mom.’ Stereotypically when you hear the words soccer mom, we imagine a mom supporting her child and their team, driving the minivan full of screaming and laughing children, all while lugging around a plethora of sports equipment. How exhausting this must be, but most soccer moms wouldn’t trade it for the world.

We want our kids to enjoy outside activities like sports, so it’s hard for us to say no when they want to sign up for an athletic event. Plus, it gives us something to do in the summer, and it keeps our children healthy and active. It is also an excellent way to bond with their children since we are the ones taking them to and from practice and cheering them on at their games. Athletics give our children something to strive for and to work hard at.

But it can be hard to take your athlete to and from practice and games if you don't have a reliable vehicle. You may require your car to take your child to their practices multiple times a day and out of town games every weekend. What can you do?

How Movies Portrayed Car Salesmen

How Movies Portrayed Car Salesmen Since the 80s and through the 90s, movies involving car dealerships shined a negative light on car salesmen and painted a stereotypical picture. These comedic characters came off as shady, sleazy, pushy, and willing to do anything to make the sale. The News Wheel has listed the Top 5 Worst Car Salesmen from Movies and they're some pretty bad ones. Here are my three favorites from the list. Rudy Russo from the 1980 film Used Cars . A young Kurt Russell portrays Rudy Russo, a state Senate hopeful. In order to get a $10,000 campaign investment from used car lot owner Luke Fuchs, Rudy must help him sell some cars to keep his business up and running. While doing so, Rudy uses standard stereotypical used car salesmen techniques like cheesy commercials, fast-talking, and pressure selling. He even baits a customer from a competing lot by using a $10 bill on a fishing line to get the man to cross the street. Joey O’Brien from Cadillac Man . The ...

Historic Route 66- Main Street of America

Historic Route 66- Main Street of America Over the years, Route 66 has provided travelers, dreamers, and renegades with an experience no other route can give. Established November 11, 1926, covered 2,448 miles and originally ran through eight states starting from Chicago, Ill to Santa Monica, CA and quickly began to be one of the most popular highways in America. It soon became known by other names such as The Mother Road, Will Rogers Highway, and was spotlighted in John Steinbeck’s classic novel The Grapes of Wrath. When The Great Depression hit in 1929 over 200,000 traveled to Californa seeking reprieve from The Dust Bowl and used The Mother Road to escape. Some traveled west with the promise of work. With barren land surrounding them, farmers and their families gathered essentials and traveled west in hopes of work. Towns, mom and pop businesses, and service stations along the highway survived The Great Depression by catering to travelers with supplies, fuel, and car parts. Res...

Williams Group Auto - Seatbelt Statistics | Used Car Dealership in Abilene

  The Importance of Wearing Your Seatbelt When doing our research into buying a new vehicle, we shop around, go for a test drive, look into the car's history, find repair records, and other countless things. A few other things we look for might not be as important in the purchase process but more of a personal preference, such as color, whether it has Bluetooth, a sunroof, and so on. Either way, it is safe to say that we all want the same thing, to feel safe in our vehicle. When it comes to our safety, seat belts are one of the most important devices. They are important in our everyday lives to us and our passengers. While some incidents are rear-ended accidents, others are scarier. And what is more frightening is that in 2016 there were 37,461 people killed in motor accidents, and 48% of them were not wearing a seat belt. Not wearing or improperly wearing a seat belt can have fatal consequences, and to spread awareness, the State of Texas introduced the program Click it, or Ticket...
