Spring Cleaning (For Your Car)
Do you change things around in your coat closet when the
seasons change? Maybe move those fall jackets to the basement
and dig out your flip flops, shorts, and tank tops? Your car needs
the same kind of attention. Here’s the checklist for your
“Spring (Car) Cleaning”:
Switch wiper blades.
Change windshield washer fluid.
Check the tires.
Check the brakes.
Change oil.
Clean out trunk.
Check spare tire and jack.
Perform walk-around inspection (look for loose moldings
and hoses, paint chips, scratches, etc.).
A spring checkup will make sure your car keeps running in tip
top shape.
Checking the air filter, replacing wiper blades and checking the
brakes are your tried-and-true ways to make sure to have a safe
and fun Spring!
Keeping Your Mind in Tip-Top Shape…Not Just Your Car!

Do you know that when a woman wears a leather dress, a man's heart beats quicker, his throat gets dry, he gets weak in the knees, and he begins to think irrationally!?
Ever wonder why?
It's because she smells like a new car.
A newly married man asked his wife, 'Would you have married me if my father hadn't left me a fortune?'
'Honey,' the woman replied sweetly, 'I'd have married you, no matter who left you a fortune!'
Grab Your Checkbook – Cost to Raise a Child Every year, the U.S. Department of Agriculture issues new
statistics on the cost of raising a child from birth to age
18. The latest report says the average cost is $226,920 --
almost 40% more than a decade ago, CNNMoney reports. It
makes me want to call my parents and say “THANKS!!”

Yes, it does a body good: Studies show that calcium isn’t just a
bone booster but a fat fighter too. Recent research from the
University of Tennessee found that obese people who went on a
low-calorie, calcium-rich diet lost 70% more weight than those
who ate the least. Vitamin D not only allows your body to absorb calcium, it’s also a super nutrient in its own right. Recent research
found that adequate D levels can reduce heart disease risk, ward off
certain types of cancer, relieve back pain, and even help prevent
depression, but most of us don’t get nearly enough of the 1,000+ IU daily
that most experts recommend.

I don’t think so…
Best Buys of the Year – Things to Buy in March
Boats: Once boat show season is over in February, you can still grab
good deals on last year's models before the brand new ones come out.
Frozen Foods: It's National Frozen Food Month. It may be strange, but
I'm not about to argue with them.
Gardening Tools: It may not be time to break them out yet, but if you
shop for those gardening tools ahead of time, you can usually get a sweet
price in late winter/early spring.
Golf Clubs: New models are coming out for the summer, so your local
golf shop is pushing the old ones out the door. Grab last year's set
cheaply and you'll forget all about how awesome
the new ones are.
Luggage: It's in between vacation seasons, so
shops are dropping prices. Grab any extra bags
you might need for the summer in March.
The Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race is an annual sled dog team race
across Alaska. Mushers and a team of 12-16 dogs (of which at
least 6 must be on the towline at the finish line), cover over 1,049
miles in 9–15 days from Anchorage to Nome.
The event honors the most famous event in the history of Alaskan
mushing: the 1925 serum run to Nome, also known as the "Great
Race of Mercy." A diphtheria epidemic threatened Nome and the
nearest quantity of antitoxin was found to be in Anchorage. Since
Nenana, where it was passed just before midnight on January 27
to the first of twenty mushers and more than 100 dogs who
relayed the package 674 miles from Nenana to Nome. The dogs
ran in relays, with no dog running over 100 miles.
The Norwegian Gunnar Kaasen and his lead dog Balto arrived on
Front Street in Nome on February 2 at 5:30 a.m., just five and a
half days later. The two became media celebrities, and a statue of
Balto was erected in Central Park in New York City in 1925!
the two available planes were both dismantled
and had never been flown in the winter,
Governor Scott Bone approved a safer route. The
20-pound cylinder of serum was sent by train 298
miles from the southern port of Seward to
20 Years! 1Stop is celebrating 20 years in business
all year in 2012!
