Ok, the nice, uniformed guard standing near me says I only have a couple of minutes per post, so I need to make this quick.

MV was in paint on Friday to blend after some door damage was discovered as a result of the break-in. Minor, but needed to get repaired.

The dogs did not make it to the vet on Friday. Apparently, my wife decided she did not want to try to stuff (or lift) them into the Bonne (whew!!!!!!!) and is awaiting the return of the MV for the trip to the vets. Estimations of dogs' weights was a WAG. The lab IS old and overweight (like his owner) but has been on the "Senior Wieght Control" IAMs for awhile and the Aussie is keeping him active, so he is not as saggy as he used to be, we will find out at the vet visit. The Aussie doesn't appear to be overweight, so my guess may be high, but when he does a flying leap over the back of the couch and lands on my stomach, he feels like 80 lbs. at least

Modding a mini-van would allow my wife to feel and hear a supercharger. I figured at least that way, she would be happy hearing whine and leave my Bonne alone. Worth the effort if you ask me.

Actually, I am driving my father-in-law'* 2000 Le Sabre Limited . My wife is more familiar with the Bonne, and she is afraid to drive her dad'* car. If something happens to the Bonne, at least it is a car under our insurance and I am an easy going type of guy
