Dear mid-60s caregivers of cars that are part of the family, . . . .
As lots of you also receive, I get the promotional emails from Original Parts Group. There is a 15% off sale running through Sunday. The reason:
National "name your car" day . . . . . .
Being the skeptical type I did an internet search and sure enough:
http://www.nationaldaycalendar.com/national-name-your-car-day-october-2/ (http://www.nationaldaycalendar.com/national-name-your-car-day-october-2/)
October 2nd is supposedly national "name your car" day.
Since our family's trusty wagon has had the name Biquette since 1968, I think we are covered:

Still I'm not entirely sure I like the idea of a national "name your car" day. It may help OPGI sell a few parts but somehow I don't think Hallmark is going sell many cards on this occasion!
Cheers, . . . . Edouard :occasion14:
