Nigel

I would like to announce that Nigel is currently on bed rest. He incurred a serious injury on Sunday morning while traveling down the freeway. Some loud clunking and banging ensued, accompanied by large amounts of smoke. This left Erika stranded on the shoulder of a somewhat busy freeway for several hours longer than she had desired and a hefty towing bill. Nigel is suffering from a blown transfer case (the extension of the transmission that controls how many wheels he drives on). Unfortunately his life may not be spared from this injury. The decision on whether he heads into surgery will be made in 2 weeks. In the meantime I will be cheating on him with a grandma car. At the end of his holding period I will have to make the decision to keep him around or find a suitable replacement. At this point it is looking like I will need to be in the search of suitable replacement.
