If it were possible for anyone to buy a star (a real one) why would you buy one?
Hey Ale,
Sure I would!
Can you think of a more romantic gift for the person that has everything?
Imagine, it’s your anniversary and you are with the person that you love. “Baby, I told you when I married you that the sky was the limit – Well, because of you, I feel I’ve gone beyond that! For you, my love – A Star !”
I know CORNY! But I like the style!
Great Question!

what is the funniest superstition you’ve ever heard?
Hey Dawn,
I still think that this is the funniest.
I have a good friend that is from India. Whenever he hears something sacrilegious – he will start beating himself about the face and upper torso! Not enough to do damage, but enough to cause a headache!
We have checked with other Indian friends, they have told us that you only do that if “these are also your thoughts”.
So for fun, sometimes we will gang up on him and watch him beat the heck out of himself!
Sorry, It’s just always so funny!

What is the knocking noise in front when I hit a bump?
Hey Naughty,
My experience has taught me that it is your rack and pinion. It may be as simple as your front stabilizers.
A few easy checks:
1). Sit on your front bumper – Bounce it up and down. Get up. If your car bounces more than twice – It’s your shock absorbers. Also, listen for any noises or thumps
2). Push your car from side to side from the front fender. If it is your front stabilizers – you will hear the same clunk.
3). Check your tire wear. Are you getting scallops on the edges or do you have problems with your tread separating? These are signs that there MAY be a problem with your stabilizers (Or it could also be alignment.)
If neither gives you any result, it could be your rack and pinion. Sadly, there are so many parts involved in Dodges rack and pinion that it may be too costly.
MOSTLY – take a little bit of advise from ALL of us. None of us are master mechanics and None of us have seen your car. We’ve all heard the Clunks that you are describing, but all of us will agree that it could be MANY different things.
Chilton’s manual has a really good “What is that sound mean?” section. About $25.00
Good luck and Thank you for asking us!

What is the best avenue to go when selling your business?
Hey Softail,
To find out the value of your business – act like you are trying to buy one! It’s just like trying to buy a house — you check out what the other houses in the area are selling for and then you adjust your price accordingly. Most business brokers can assist you with this one. They will actually (like a Realtor) try to get you to sign up with them – but they’re in it for commission only.
Keep in mind:
What were your sales; This year, Last year, Average last 5 years?
What were your Net Profits; This year, Last year, Average last 5 years?
What equipment and assets do you own?
How much money would it cost you TODAY to open the same business?
What is your GOODWILL worth? (Goodwill are the customers that will stay with your business – Sometimes that can account for many times what the business is actually worth!).
Who to sell it to?
1). Your customers! They are the ones that will have a vested interest in keeping the quality up and the prices fair,
2). Your competition! They want you out of the business! They will also know what the fairest price for your business will be.
Good luck!
