News Note

Nearly half of American electric car owners say they want to go back to internal  combustion vehicles

https://www.eenews.net/articles/46-of-american-ev-drivers-want-to-go-back-to-gas-cars-report/

I recommend you don't buy one...unless you're extremely rich and have a carport well away from your house under which you can charge it.

Cool! More used EVs on the market for consumers who will be getting on the road as the start up phase for the EV charging infrastructure jumps the current hurdles.
Charge mine in our attached garage. You are a gullible ass. Turn off YouTube until you learn discernment.

For what it is worth, that survey runs directly counter to my experience with the score of EV owners I know.

They're probably extremely rich...and only drive to work and back, charge up at home.
Try doing anything else and see how you like it then.
No, no, not always and I love it. It is an older model with limited range, but I would get a newer EV when I replace it.

Bambu is suffering from major EV envy, a terminal case I suspect.

I wouldn't have one as a gift.
Wait a minute, that's a bit rash....I would actually have one as a gift, I'm right into "free stuff" these days [make sure you retire with loads of gold] ..just wouldn't charge it in my garage.
The cost of insuring it might be a problem, maybe I could sell photos of my hands and feet online to get the money.

No way I'd buy one, even if I had the money.

Gullible?

Nah...my motto is "never trust anyone".

So, when I actually see the EV Jaguar ablaze in, a news video, and the attached-to-house garage up in smoke, firefighters/fire trucks everywhere, the nice 2 storey home with its garage door boarded up instead of the original door...I sit up and take notice.

The first thing they teach you in Leadership Training is to take responsibility and not to blame other people, only then can you grow and solve problems.

And when they divide Americans up and fight us among ourselves then we all lose. We need to all be equal in America, all humans are equal, otherwise America will not work.

Also, as people become educated then they will value an education more, and will fairly reciprocate when it comes to Union Wage Scales, etc, the more education and training that you have then the more money you should be paid. When people see an education being rewarded then they will all want to go out and get an education. And the new movie studio in Kentucky needs to make movies and television shows with young intelligent people, they need to show the best in humanity, with value and respect for an education and greatness and beauty.

Bambu, in Rome they all walk, and they ride bicycles and mopeds, and they have subways and trains and buses, etc. But, in Malibu, or in Topanga, etc, then you need to own a car, I like the new Electric Volkswagen Buses, for Malibu an Electric VW Bus would be perfect. But, they need to fix them so that they do not start fires.

Anyhow, we need to keep Americans united regardless of race, income, sex, etc. They tried to start a race war in the Antelope Valley and a prominent member of the community had to step in and stop the insanity. Two children were fighting on a playground, a white child and a black child, and the black child hit his head on the cement and died. Louis Farrakhan came to the Antelope Valley and said there was going to be a race war because the black child died, instead of bringing society up to the level of civilized wise adults then Farrakhan wanted to bring everyone down to the level of children fighting on a playground. So, Frank Visco, an Italian immigrant business-man from the Antelope Valley pulled Louis Farrakhan into a private room and they had a private discussion, and after the discussion then Farrakhan left town and the race war never happened, it was never brought up again. Visco brought the situation up to the level of civilized wise adults. So, we need to always be ready for people to try to start race wars in America, etc, and we need to always keep the peace and keep everyone equal, and we need to have civilized adults as leaders.

And Zellenskyy needs to come to the Russian Tea Room in New York City to ask for help.

Salute,

Tony  V.

Well of course, but the selling photos strategy remains baffling to me.  Perhaps it's a clever Australian joke that would make sense if my bathtub water swirled down the drain the other direction.

Oh dear...

my motto up until now has been "always blame someone else".

Ha ha ha. No, that does not work.

I went through leadership training with an orphan as my partner for the course, and it was powerful, my Father died when I was 9, and she lost both of her parents, so we went through a lot of growth. It was with I-Source Leadership Training in Marina Del Rey, California, with Tim Randolph, it was powerful. I let go of a lot of baggage and I grew as a person, and as a leader.

And I shared some of my ideas with the Governor of Kentucky, he seems like a cool guy. I think he wants to give an education and job training to all of the people of Kentucky. And they have an exciting new movie and television studio being built in Kentucky.

I also wrote to the Bare Elegance Gentleman's Club and I told them to open a new club with a giant Mediterranean Garden next door to the Rock and Brews club that is owned by Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley. Strip clubs and Rock clubs go good together, and I am sure Gene and Paul would approve of having a Bare Elegance club next to their Rock and Brews club here in Orange County.

Salute,

Tony V.

It is important for people to let go of the baggage and to let go of the blame and victim-hood so they can enjoy the new day and the future without letting the past ruin the future. And in California then each neighborhood has its own new vibe, and we have paradise and the ghetto right next to each other, and you need to leave the ghetto behind so that you can enjoy the paradise. And you might be homeless one day, and then be living in Malibu, or Topanga, or somewhere the next day. And we have Hollywood, and Anaheim is cool, etc.

And I think Kentucky is going to do some great things, it is going to get better for the families of the poor coal miners. But, they need to let the poverty go, they need to leave the poverty behind so that they can enjoy success. One thing we know is that educated people appreciate an education more than someone who is uneducated, so we will start this great chain reaction as we educate people and more people will go back to school. And we need to teach everyone how to read, etc, and we need libraries and coffee shops, etc.

Marina Del Rey is nice like Cannes, and I have a French friend there who owns her own yacht, she just bought a house on the beach but she lived on her yacht for many years. She works in the Fashion Industry in Beverly Hills, etc. She is in a whole different mindset than the rest of the world, she is in her own zone. She is not my type, but I like her as a friend, and I like to see her at clubs when she shows up to see our mutual friends jam, etc. Anyhow, Marina Del Rey is nice, but you have to leave the ghetto behind so that you can enjoy the charm of Marina Del Rey.

And we create our own atmosphere that travels with us wherever we go, but you still have to be careful in the bad areas.

Salute,

Tony V.
