And now for the naming ceremony.

After have the priveledge driving HIM (no doubt, he is a boy), including to canyons, 1 fill up. 1 cell phone shifting disaster and a LARGE, but now dead bug on the windshield and in recognition of both his heritage and mine I proclaim that the car formally known as EB/w with the loose jack shall be known as AENGUS.
