Monday, I received AAA propaganda in the mail.  I found it interesting that
the "Real Life" story included read as follows:

Bold Heading
"There we sat, in the dark, with cars blasing by on the  highway..... "

Real Life story.
Every year my wife and I drive my restored 1972 Westfalia bus from
San Francisco to this Annual Volkswagen gathering in Lake Havasu, AZ.
 Twenty minutes outside of Barstow, CA, the ignition coil went out and we
sputtered to the side of the road.....   There we sat, in the dark, in the
cold, cars blasting by on the highway.  I phoned for help and fifteen
minutes later the AAA driver arrived in a flatbed ---  The right rig to tow
my bus. " blah blah blah.  Short story, they were saved, you buy AAA you
get saved also.

I find it quite interesting that I received this 2 days before leaving for
BBB at Lake Havasu in my own Westfalia.  Coincidence?  I think not!!
Any other vanagonauts living in  surrounding states get this AAA offer this
week?  Just curious if they sent it to all regional Vanagon/Bus  owners or
maybe it was just my turn.

I still can't decide whether to bite the hook or not.  50 something bucks a
year sounds cheap, but then I'm cheap.
