Going to Hang out with a Friend & tinker on a Bug...
An old friend is picking me up in a few & we are going to tinker on her Beetle vert.
It has been sitting a while & won't fire up....

Tinker? Is that what you guys on the East coast call it these days? And 'Beetle Vert"? Can't touch the "Beetle Horiz" til the 3rd or 4th date..

That's a cute red bug. Do you know if the drop top still works?

I dated her back when I was a SR in high school, she recently looked me up & found me, turns out that she doesn't live to far from me...... The Vert needs some electrical work & maybe a starter..

Once you get her, uh, the bug started, you're going to need a seat belt for the ride, my friend.
