Morning Buzz: Car ads = free gas?

This is an interesting story that I saw on CNN.com. The report profiles one of the people who drive cars and SUVs plastered with ads. The reason – it’s free: the car and the gas. Some people even get paid to drive their ad cars. It also shows ways other people are cutting gas costs. Here’s the link: http://www.cnn.com/2008/LIVING/06/19/gas.incentives/index.html

Have you ever seen one of these ad cars? Did you ever say you wouldn’t drive one and now you’re reconsidering?

I’d do it if our company offered it.

I’m just thankful that I don’t work for Stayfree.
My truck is really small. I suppose we could get the Ultra Thin Pads on the rear quaterpanel.
I don’t think there would be enough room for the Long Super Maxi with Wings.

In a way I already do..I have WBTW plastered all over my vehicle…and am considering doing it to the bass boat..

Any chance the General Manager will slide me a few bucks and re-issue my gas card…so I can go fish’n again this weekend?...wink

My next door neighbor and his wife have big signs on their cars that advertise his business. I think it’s tacky, and I also think it’s against the neighborhood rules.
Wolf, I didn’t know you worked for WBTW. What do you do there?

I started my career out as the company mascot..(one of those “W’s” stands for Wolf)..but quickly worked my way up to become the Executive Telecommunications Project Specialist..

..to this day..I still dont know exactly what I was suppose to do..but I showed up for work anyway..

After winning the lottery for the 4th time..I pretty much bought up all of the Media General stock I could get my hands on..in doing so..I gained just enough power to place myself on part-time status..

..so now out of a 12 month year..I show up for 3 or 4 weeks…usually sober and clean shaven..I still dont know exactly what it is they expect me to do..but it pays good and comes with a gas card…so I dont question it..

So in answer to your question..what do I do there?

As little as possible..wink

You’re kidding, right? About winning the lottery 4 times. I tried to buy a ticket yesterday and was told that I had to wait until something:45. I forgot the hour, but of my 3 numbers, 2 won. The Gods were on my side, since I didn’t lose my dollar. One day…... grin

I never kid around about the lottery..

Never give up..you’ll hit it one day…and dont forget the power play..it is important..

..gamble responsibly tho..and never ever bet your husband’s beer money..wink

How much did you win? Or is that a secret? Ha…
David doesn’t drink beer; he drinks mount gay rum. LOL
I usually do the pick 3 but have thought about the pick 5 or whatever it’s called. Seems like you have a better chance of winning. Do you play the same numbers every time? If so, what are they…ha,ha…

Posted by bewmson  on  06/26  at  05:20 PM

I wont give the 4 amounts..but I will never have to work full time another day in my life…ever again..

I always go with the quick pick..I let the computer pick my numbers..

I’ve just been lucky I guess..aint much skill involved..

But to win..you gotta play..
