Merry Christmas and never forget how good you have it.

I don’t think my owners really understand what it means for an older model Volvo to take a trip with them to the junk yard. It’s like asking them to take a stroll in the cemetery. And one can’t help but think what they are trying to tell me. But, being the good loyal Volvo that I am, I went. And it was actually not all that bad because there was only one Volvo there. It was so ancient I couldn’t even make out what model it was. So this speaks very highly of my family line. VIVA VOLVO.

Today is a special day!!! IT SNOWED!!!!. It is my owners and I first snow together since the releasing of this sight. I know, I know, it’s nothing compared to what their 940 Volvo experienced during the 2009 blizzard of South Dakota, but it’s still significant to me. I will do my best to keep them nice and warm and make sure my heated seats are toasty for them when they return from the cold. This is one of my best features which is still working after almost 15 years. Knock on VOLVO.

I got a boo boo today. My armrest has been cracking for a while, but it finally split today. Any suggestions on how to fit it. I thought about a band-aid, but this is not very attractive. Do those self-repair leather kit work? The rumor among us Volvos is that those “As Seen On TV” kits don’t work. What about this product called “Magic Menders”? I will try anything. I feel like I’m an aging woman in need for Botox. Hey that’s an idea . . .
There’s nothing like a good ole drink of fresh water after a long hard day of work.
Got new snow shoes today and they are already dirty. Shhhhhh . . . Don’t tell anybody. I will have them clear by the end of the day. There is a watering hole just down the road.

According to dieselstation.com, Volvo has announced today that it will introduce its first plug-in hybrid by 2012. Pure electric power from the battery will cover the daily transport needs of 75 percent of European drivers. For longer distances, an efficient dieselhybrid engine automatically takes over. The combined range is about 1200 kilometres. Carbon dioxide emissions will average out at 49 grams per kilometre, with fuel consumption of 1.9 litres per 100 km.
“The new Volvo plug-in will be a truly enjoyable car to drive, featuring Volvo’s high safety and comfort standards. At the same time, CO2 levels and fuel consumption will be as low as half that available on the market today.” says Stephen Odell, President and CEO of Volvo Car Corporation.

Radnevo (Раднево) is a town in southern Bulgaria, part of Stara Zagora Province. It is located in the eastern Upper Thracian Lowlands close to the Maritsa Iztok Complex. This is a picture taken of one of the newest monuments while passing through.
Notable natives include Bulgarian Agrarian National Union politician Dimitar Dragiev (1869-1943), poet Geo Milev (1895-1925), Bulgarian international footballer Andrey Zhelyazkov (b. 1952) and popular pop-folk singer Silvia (b. 1978). Curious of Wikipedia.com

So as I was out for a drive today, my stick shift knob popped right off. When my owner attempted to put it back on. It worked for a couple more days, but then started to crack. So my owner had this bright idea to go get another one from a junk yard. I tried to tell him it wouldn’t work. But he didn’t listen. So off to the junk yard we went. They had no Volvos and so my owner tried one from a Renault. WRONG! It doesn’t work, I’m a Volvo not a Renault. So he tried store after store and no one carried one that fit me. He even tried to glue my broken one back on me as you can see in the evidence provided in the above photo. Duh! I am one of a kind. I can only use Volvo manufactured parts. Nothing else is good enough for me. I do have a reputation to uphold you know.
