RE: firefox or IE
SPEAKING OF WHICH!!!!!!!!!
I pulled the old man out of storage FINALLY! threw a new battery in him (it's a him because his name is Geeves...perfect name for a 240 wagon) and a full tank of gas. Started right up...not bad for sitting in storage for two years eh? For now, he's me Mountain Biking car....
Here's where it becomes an off topic discussion....
So i went to go get my plates re-newed...it was still under Georgia registration and i now live in Minnesota. The lady asked me when the car got up here and in an attept to gain some good carma i told her the truth. "Ma'am" i says, "i brought it back up with me when we moved from Georgia 2 years ago as of May 11 and it's been in storage ever since." She frowns at me and says that i should have registered it then because now i'll have to pay that year, plus this year and then in a month when this years tabs are up i'll have to re-new them AGAIN...for a total of 3 sets of tabs. I looked at her and was prepared to bust out the Vasoline....after all, i gotta have my Volvo right?...when she says...."you know, if you waited a month i can give a non use year and you'll only have to pay for two years. In fact, had you not said anything about when you got it here the state would never have know the difference...but, unfourtunatly I can't help you with that. Oh, and i noticed you lived in Farmington...Well, there's a more local DMV over there that you can try tomorow." To which i reply, "don't you mean in a month from now?" This is the best part...."no, i meen tomorow when you go in and tell them you just brought the car up from Georga last week!"

RE: firefox or IE
that kinda sounds like my volvo....was sitting in my brothers garage for a little over a year which he just got a used(78) motor put in it and i replaced the brakes, than it sat for a year. charged up the battery and it fired right up. i need to come up with a name for it, prefer and female name, but will take any suggestions. its a 79 244dl and a tu-tone tan. the reason for the tu-tone is some TRIED to do rust repair work on it and the part they did that and repainted was the wrong sahde of tan, and the rust is coming back. so if anyone is interesting in helping out a new volvo lover with some bodywork and other various mechanical work, LET ME KNOW. haha.
