golf cart tips
so you want to sell a golf cart

number one:Craigs list is not a good place to put an ad for a golf cart being sold in a retirement community.( I do hardily endorse craigs list, cuz I like the peace symbol, just not for selling golf carts) I don't mean to discredit our older friends, some of whom are very computer savvy , but in general they are more likely to look at print ads. If you put an ad on craigs list and no one replies, you might think no one is interested and try a print ad that offers the golf cart for a very cheap price. Which segways nicely to :number two:Make the price higher than what you really want for it. That way people will haggle for a lower price, and feel like they have gotten a good deal. How come every third world child selling pens on a street corner knows this and I don't? Obviously i am not hungry enough. I guess the lesson is, hire a skinny kid to dress in rags and stand in front of the golf cart, make sure they have big sad eyes, and have them haggle for a good price,. Make sure you follow local child labor practices, and give the kid a good cut. Remember, children are the future.

Ok so we are going to list polar bears as endangered but e are not going to do anything about it. Anyone who has seen the movie Earth ( which I did not recommend in an earlier post ) knows that melting sea ice, which we all know is being exacerbated by man's actions, is leading to the death of polar bears. But the former administration said that endangered status didn't mean any action would be taken about climate change, and now the current administration agrees. Change ? this is change? no change on climate change policies.OK maybe it is all too complicated for me, but if climate change is causing animals to become endangered, then shouldn't we do something about climate change? Otherwise what is the point of having an endangered species act? So that we can show the list to future generations and say " yes we knew these animals were endangered but we didn't do anything about it." Great, as if those future generations aren't already upset enough about being exploited to sell used golf carts.
