Default Of course!

Hello everyone. Common sense here. Follow me. You own a Ford? The Ford manual tells you, " ...only get Ford parts". You own a Dell PC? Dell manuals tell you, "....only get Dell parts". and so on. Of course Uncle Sam wants you to only get over-priced and hard to get keys from him. Don't forget, this is the same guy who buys toilet seats and hammers at $300 a pop. And don't believe the mattress police either. You know, the ones who come around to make sure you didn't remove the little note on your mattress. "Do not remove under penalty of law", or something like that.

We used to live in Orlando and when we had our business, we needed to get a PO Box. Well, my wife lost her key and the USPS wanted our second born plus some amount I could have used to put a room addition on our house for a replacement key. And they must be made in Hong Kong as it would have taken forever to get it to us. Ahhhhh, governmental red tape.

Fortunately, I knew a guy who had a freind who was a locksmith. 15 minutes later and a couple of bucks lighter we had our second key again. The terrorists never landed and the world didn't come to a screeching halt.
End of story.

Neat bumper sticker. Went like this: "It's God's job to judge terrorists. Our job is to arrange the meeting!"

Be a gentleman, remove your hat/cap when entering a building and dining out!
