Twilight Is Taking The Holiday Season Like A Storm !

With all the followers , some calling themselves Twi's who knew this movie would be so well made it would blow the sales through the roof. Twilight Saga: New Moon had one of the best fall movie opening's ever with over $142 million in sales, also this movie did more sales on its opening weekend then any other movie this year. After the movie release the Twilight sales not only hit the roof , but the add on sales also did.

Now right before the Christmas rush the fans are all looking for clothing, jewelry, Twilight barbie dolls, poster's and anything to do with the star's of the movie. I know for a fact that my wife has all the books out for Twilight, and is looking for the older movie series right now. With all this publicity of such a great movie its gonna be pretty hard to get your hands on anything come time that the big guy in his red suit shows up on that one night of December 25.

When and if they make another movie , what is the content in it gonna be ? Or is it gonna be based off of the book series, maybe they will surprise us with a whole new line of characters. In the end if its anything like what they did this year then it will for sure keep the attention of all the Twi's longing to be just like the people in the movie, great job is what I'm going to leave this at for now.

The art of car auctions, or is it really art ?

I grew up around cars and a father who was a general manager for a car dealership, I think I was learning to buy and sell at a very young age. We would get up early on a Saturday and drive for a couple of hours to a known auto auction that most of the dealers would buy or sell there cars.

I still remember dad saying listen to the engine, do you hear the slight rattle when I rev it up a little? Probably means the main bearing is getting bad, or he would teach me how the sound from behind the car from the exhaust was a dead give away if the engine was not firing right. It was training for sure, learning to find the right car that would sell and make a small profit or large profit if you bought it cheap enough. As I got older I would be the one starting the vehicles and running the transmission into drive and reverse to see if there was anything wrong with the transmission, did it slip or does it go into gear just right. I looked for cars that sounded good, went into gear good, or maybe needed a little paint.

Point is you want a car that should be reliable and something that don't take much to get it looking good and cleans up well. So with that said, if and when you go to the car auctions look under the car see if it is leaking oil, or fluids of any kind.Start it up and see what it sounds like, does it smoke or make any weird noises? What about the lights do they all work, and do the brakes work. All of these things are something that needs to be checked before you even begin to bid on it, get to the auction early so you can walk around an take your time to see what cars are the best and if they have any problems.

I have been going to auctions for twenty years or more now and they really haven't changed much. The cars are newer and now have computer controls, but they still are cars and they still basically have the same problems as before. There are online auctions also now, just ask the same questions to the people selling online and is there a 30 day guarantee or something like that if your buying online. Just taking precautionary steps will help in you making the right decision, in any auto auction look before you buy.
