Victory!


The long automotive battle between my brother and I has finally come to a conclusion with the death of his Honda last week. Despite the many problems with both of our cars, documented here, we fought a hard battle for over thirteen years, both automobiles and their owners refusing to give up the ghost. Recent transmission issues had me worried, but the magical brown beast seemingly fixed itself and trod onward.
Your winner is pictured here savoring the accolades, as well as another day spent on the road rather than in the junkyard. Notice the one remaining hubcap.
Can the Camry, currently sporting just under 220,000 miles, defeat yet another of Colin's rides? Only time will tell (the answer is hell no). Let the games begin!

Whoa.... I didn't know his purple-headed warrior died!

The warrior did not prove strong enough to defeat the brown bomber. He may have a new car by the time you visit next week.

How do you like the re-designed link to your blog on my website?

That is very nice, I need to learn some web design from you so I can give my own page a better look and so I can do a permalink back to your blog as well.
