That would be plural though I'd think.

Its a girl, typically with light brown hair with reddish highlights, with loose curls cascading down their back. Maggies are generally very sweet but with a strong sexual undercurrent about them. They are very loyal and make great girlfriends, but if you wrong them, watch out. They can party with the boys, but like their romantic alone time with their boyfriend. They are family oriented and want a commitment within 2 years or so of starting to go out with them. You can only hold them off for so long before they realize that you are not in it for the long term, then come the tears, recriminations, bitterness and finally breakup. Ask me how I know.

Wow! Let's see...Do I want a supercharger like this or do I spend the money on a widebody conversion. Either way my car would look faster or it would run faster, this is a win/win decision.

I do beleive it's what my toddler grand daughter calls her pacifier. Which, when you think about it, isn't that far off from what some of you characters think about your supercharger installations.

Okay, okay..... just kidding.
