          • I switched summer driver ( Frankenstiva ) to this year's winter driver ( Festdiva ). $47 for six month liability insurance. Thinking about pulling "Jerry" ( 1989 L Plus )into service so I can get the Historical Car ( 25 years )discount. One time inspection and one time tags. Keeps me out of the DMV. I'll go get a pic.

                  What company are you with, that you only pay $47/six months? I'm paying about $312 for six months for two cars.

                        Great to hear from you Marcus! Just realized looking over the latest Madness posts that it's been four years since we visited you and Dee! Belated happy birthday too.... we still talk about the great meal you cooked up for us!

                            • This afternoon, I just making everything shiny inside so that I can hide it!

                              Note: No seat belt slots or cargo cover hardware on speaker shelves.

                              Also changed my car alarm/power door lock horn. After buying three duds, this one actually works!

                              • Washed Pedro 3 times and waxed it too. It was a chore to clean 6400 miles worth of America off the 27 year old paint.
