The real question is, when you turn your car on, does it return the favour...

Hmmm...

Between the fleet I was awarded (like Captain's Mast you are awarded
punishment and for some reason they call you "awardee" in the brig--go
figure) two clutches, two batteries, a turbo/lower end rebuild and a
set of tires for the R.

Expensive friggin year.

I said goodbye to my beloved 85 but I saved one and handed it over to
Gordy so my Scirocco Karma is even at least.  (or did I sell the 85 in
October last year?)

I didn't lose any family members this year, I had enough of that last
year thank you very much, but I did gain one.  I married off one of my
brother's...

Has been a crazy year...
