never thought much about bald one way or another never thought it defined a man and hey! If that’s what a woman wants who am I to care? Bald - some say it is beautiful. all I know is this … Ready for the pearl of wisdom? bald is not beautiful on tires nope, not one iota of beauty in a bald tire and if there are four all around a car well, specifically, my car all I learned is this … Ready for another pearl of wisdom? bald is expensive and that’s all I have to say about BALD (the word may look funny but it really ain’t funny) ...

We should pass a collection plate around pip to pay for your four bald tires. Hmm, if that would work, I have a few things that a collection plate could be sent across these blue pages! Seriously speaking, Ali, 4 bald tires is nothing to sneeze at! ~ and it's dangerous to drive your car until you have them replaced. As per usual, I found your rant rather amusing. In the meantime, be CAREFUL!!! Loves 'n hugs, Linder Lou |

Well founded/written rant my friend. Have lived your plight a number of times in my life. And the best way I found to replace tires was to start putting a couple bucks here and there into an envelope marked TIRES in prep. for the next time. j. |

Oh poor kid-o! I know the feeling. Bald is bad!! At least you can drive safe for the next 40 to 60 thousand miles. Hopefully! JL Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself. |

I just had to buy ONE and my wallet's still whimpering for even the cheapest tires are far from cheap!!! So you definitely have my sympathy... and my agreement... bald on a tire is just plain UGLY!!! LOL |

Hey, better than going out and buying a new husky for the dogsled! Face it, Alison. The day comes for all of us to re-tire. That's life |

I need to have rtwo replaced myself. But you're twice as tired as I am, and I can hardly stay a wake. Thank heavens your wake was stayed by such prompt if expensive action. All my best, Bob Kaven |

Ouch, Alison, so very ouch! I understand the difference between "oh, I need to get new tyres" and "how am I going to manage to pay for a new tyre - let alone FOUR!" only too well. Owl |
