New Year's Resolutions
- Spell fob without ALL CAPS since it is not an acornym
- Never refer to the car [a machine] as "she"
- Continue to park carefully to avoid damage to the front splitter (price of part seems to increase 20% per year)

Take good care of SheDevil, my 07 C6.
Take more drives with no planned destination. Just drive new roads and let them take me where they will.

Figure out the alarm code for the garage door.
Go for more drives ………...after I get the door to open again.
Go buy another Vette if the above doesn't work out .
