Subject:      My first car (previously: valiant (somebody stop me))
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

My first was a '64 Chevy Chevelle, 4 door, 283 cid (remember cubic inches),
2 speed auto.  I got it in '74 and loved it.  I went to college in '76 and
my sister totaled it between Thanksgiving and Christmas (she got her license
11/31/76).  To add insult to injury, she got a rebate from our insurance the
next month because she was classified as a "safe driver" because she was on
the honor roll.  Her insurance rates were already less than mine
(male/female), despite my two years of accident-free driving.

No more Friday ramblings as it now after midnight in Indiana.

That's All.

P.S. As someone once said (I think it was a little kid in "Oh, God" remember
John Denver), "spelling always counts."  Correct me if I'm wrong about the
movie.

'83 Vanagon
