NAME & FAME.

I agree that if you're in a position of power that you are subject to caricatures and ridicule, but some of the stuff I saw over the years about Barack & Michelle Obama was just plain racist and offensive. I think he's one of the smartest Presidents the USA has ever had, and Michelle Obama is probably one of the best educated first ladies.

She's a lawyer by profession, and she also gave a lot of her time promoting healthy eating in schools, and showing people how to grow veggies in their backyard etc. And for what it's worth, I also think she's a babe, and Barack is one lucky dude

I also got a good deal from Battery World in Brookvale NSW . Replaced my 6 year old battery in my car . No charge for fitting , others will charge $30 or so for fitting .

I will just go on a bit about my battery problem , you might need the info . one day . I had been out in the car and then parked it in the street . Next day it would not start . I do not or never have belonged to the NRMA . It was either petrol or sparks . Pulled the back seat up to get to the petrol pump , took a hose off and it was pumping fine . I did also check if the fuel pump was getting any power , it was reading 10.8 volts as I was cranking it over , thought that was a bit strange . My mechanic said it would be best to get it to his place to find the problem . Cost me $110 for a tow truck . The mechanic put his jump starter on and it started fine . Although the battery could crank the engine over , the voltage was dropping too low for the computers . Bought a new battery and no more problem !
