I had a tuna jalapeno subway at walmart on my lunch hour... Which was Great!!!. . I was gonna just buy some more 4 buck garden edging for the Volvo. But I had a Stroke..... Of genius. Today is the day!!!!. Drove the POS..I mean Volvo... to the Autocenter. Bought a 60 buck marine battery. Had Stanley the Battery changer guy, Unstick the old battery out while I used his wrenches to take the altonator belt off. Had to do some SC rigging since marine batteries all have the plus terminal on the wrong side of the battery. any way.. drove back to work. got gas drove back to Ringgold. started 4 times. filled up the tank.. 25 mpg (I blame the drop to the overdrive solenoid is acting up I'm driving around a lot at 3k rpm cause it wont shift up) .... went the 20 miles home. Just showed off'ed the Volvo to the UPS guy that delivered a box and he thought is was cool. Not a bad day. I Rock!...SC
