My "Southward migration" refers to having been born in NH and having progressively moved South...to PA, then VA, scouted out TX for a few years (for future use maybe) and now live in NC.

Car-sitting

Take a look at the Infinity G35 I'm "car-sitting" for a friend this week. His grandmother is visiting and either can't get into it or he didn't want to give her a heart attack from the speed, so he borrowed our, as Mandy calls it, "sensible" Accord.
The interior looks like the NASA control center with the built in GPS that extends when turned on. It's amazing the looks and comments it gets! There is one drawback though. You are prohibited by guilt from going certain places. Like the other night while driving home, I passed Aldi and thought, "Oh, I need some eggs and bread...but wait, I can't drive up to a discount grocery store in THIS and dressed in my black slacks/blue dry cleaned shirt. They'll think 'What is HE doing here?' "
The other drawback is that I'm temporarily a Chiefs fan, as literally the license plate is "CHIEFSFN". That's ok; I know my friend is riding around with my Steelers decals.

Has the horn gone off randomly yet? Like at a long red light?

Any guy who will give up his G-35 and drive a Honda for his grandmother can't be all bad! But this could be an expensive proposition for you, if you find your Honda less than satisfying after having driven the G-35!

Drive carefully, and remember--gas mileage is probably a lot better in your 'sensible' Honda.

Thanks for the Mother's Day card and calls! Sorry I missed talking to you.

Love to you both,
Mom
