<VV> Naming Corvairs

[n5hsr]

Sounds like my sister.  She says she has two dogs,

The first is the Alarm Dog.  (Pebbles)
The second is the Emergency Backup Dog.  (Isobel)

And I don't think either one would actually bite anyone.  Pebbles thinks 
she's a Rottwiler (chihuahua), but we think she's part cat.  She growls when 
you do something she likes, but I think she thinks she's purring.

Sigh.  Miss the old 700 Coupe this time of year.  Don't miss having to 
scrape the inside front windows to get the ice off them to drive, though.

Charles Fregeau.
