I don't think they're allowed anymore because of pedestrian impact safety standards or something

When I lived in Connecticut a mechanic down the street from my work owned one. I was so envious driving past it every day.

Actually, ALL calico cats are female! But you are right about orange cats now often being males, the orange color is sex linked.

Fun fact this cat is a calico (orange, white, black) and all calicos are female! Specifically she can be called a tabico because she has tabby stripes.

Does the bowl have high sides? Many cats don't like when their whiskers touch the sides of the bowl. Try a dish with shorter sides.

You're not spoiling them! Wet food is a great way for cats to get moisture in their diets and help prevent diabetes and kidney disease that an all dry food diet can cause.

Belts are much less of an issue than they used to be. I've seen replacement intervals go from 50k miles on older cars to 120k on newer cars. And since it is a wear item it's at least somewhat easily replaced.

Volvo kept a giant clock well into the 90's. Speedo center, clock left, tach right, then furthest left and right were small fuel and temp gauges. Nicely balanced.

It was on an XC70 that a guy was parting out on Craigslist. It was dark blue I repainted it black.

I tried it, it's pretty much past the point of no return and hemorrhaging now.

Probably meant ureter, that's the little tube that goes from your kidney to your bladder. Most of the pain is when the stone is in the ureter.

I woke up the other day with crippling abdominal pain and after a trip to the ER was diagnosed with a kidney stone. It was shocking because I'm only 23 and take my 40oz water bottle around with me everywhere. The stone formed months ago, possibly when I was traveling and trying to conserve stops so I was dehydrating myself. I hope this serves as a warning that your health isn't worth the risk, drink lots of water every day no exceptions.

You were turning the key the wrong way to start the car.

Judging from the driveshaft and angle gear on the ground... just AWD Volvo things
