If you'd like the original non curated story...

Or the Facebook version...

I wonder how much Internet Brands pays for copy and paste? Might be something to get into? I mean, I just did it, right?

Well, that's certainly better version than IB. When I first looked at theirs looked like she was propped up for the pic. Anyway, good for her to keep going, better than sitting in a old folks home playing bingo !

Unfortunately the old Mom and Pop dealerships are few and far between. I have 3 dealerships within a 120 mile radius, all owned by the same car dealership. Closest is only 15 minutes away. There used to be one about an hour away, in a small town, run by a Husband and Wife team. On the weekend the parking lot would be packed, it was a destination. Local dealer, crickets on the weekend. Corporate closes that one

I wonder how that works? Find an article on the Internet, massage it a bit and repost, and you get paid! Anyone remember Coles Notes? Might be a Canadian thing. A lot of Students just plagiarized Coles Notes for school assignments. Not me of course,

Now that this has aired and made the rounds, Corperate will have to close it
