My wife and I have gotten into a funny habit of playing a little game - The Vanagain Game. When we are tooling down the road, the first one to see a Vanagon shouts "VANAGAIN" ! with a smirky grin (You can say like Kramer - "I called it!). If indeed, it is a Vanagon the caller gets 1 point. We've extended the field to include busses and Eurovans and one can shout "BUSSS" or "EV". Sorry they are only worth 1/2 point each - Hey, I'm makin the rules. Wrong calls get the same point value deducted. The person with the most points wins. You cannot call the "predictable" Vanagons which are always sitting in a friends yard or a garage. The passenger has a slight advantage - they can always scan large mall parking lots when the driver has to keep his eye on the road. Try it - it addictive - like Vanagains! :) Gary 88GL Drive Gently! |
