I was holding a decent lead until Evita’s owner from Smith college uncorked this one on me...

As a non native English speaker I had to Google that one.

Still think it sounds like a cheap Suzuki copy though. Imagine how cheap that is..

How does Scrabble work if there's no board and no numbers on the tiles?

We play on the table with a unique set of family rules involving a 14 year single malt,

We never google words in our house, and Siri often calls Abby for word definitions

It’s Half way through New Years morning here, so to everyone I wish a happy, safe, and relatively repair free ( or at least cheaper than last years repairs) 2020.

Yes, here's to less repairs in 2020! Unless you're nuts like me and love fixing these things constantly

Happy New Year, MVS!

Went and picked this up yesterday to round out 2019... I hit my goal of 10 Volvos by the end of 2019 with hours to spare! If I'm counting my mom's XC90 doing the towing, we could say 11.
Now maybe by the end of 2020, I'll have 10 more

My Volvo fleet is currently counting 10. It is great to have spare parts available. Most do not drive and are parts cars only. Most are also 240 series and well worn. Half are wagons.

This is my first 240, so I'm excited! I've had 740 and 940 sedans, so it's nice to have a red block wagon.

Oh, good choice!
Turbo wheels help the looks.

(PS - I never would have guessed SYZYGY was a real word.)

I had to Google it too... like everybody else here

She'll go far, that's for sure!

I love the wheels, I was happy to get one with Virgos. I have Hydras on my 940, so now I have both of the cool turbo wheels!
