Aims, I talked to my boss.
That Volvo has the "low-pressure turbo." My boss said that's a fair price.
Stuff to check:
- Transmission needs to be flushed regularly, so maybe check the transmission dipstick to see if the fluid's clean, in addition to checking how it shifts.
- AC is a trouble-area, and expensive to fix. So make sure it's working (but even then, they could have filled it with refrigerant a day before you look at it).
- The rubber accordion-thingies on the ends of the steering rack need to be in good condition. If not, the steering rack will quickly rust and will need to be replaced.
My boss says that over all they are nice cars.
My dad sent me this link and it cracked me up, so I thought I'd share. It's Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers singing "The Atheist Song."

I freaking love my city council lady! I'm about to write her and tell her so. [link] Seriously, I could cry. City services have been horrible, and this can help put people back to work and/or stop them from losing their jobs.
Somewhat NSFW photo of a woman's Spock tattoos: [link]
She has Spock on one boob and Evil!Spock on the other one. Pretty NSFW, but you can't see nipple....
Shana Tova to all those that celebrate! May your New Year be sweet!
I'm having a bloody mary instead of a salad. The V-8 can said it was OK!
Full. Serving. of. Vegetables.
What I'm saying. And that's a little can.
Dinner: Soup of squid, last of sausage, corn, Mexican squash, sweet peppers and onions, tomatoes and Mexican spices. I guess I'm going to hell for Rosh Hashanah.
When do your kids start school, Burrell?
Sorry to disappear on folks, I had to teach. Anyhoo, their school starts next week, the 13th. Then again, had they started this week they would have made today and tomorrow pupil free days anyway for the Jewish holiday.
L'Shanna Tovah everyone!
