El Guapo's idea for a Volvo PRIDE parade at this year's Republican National Convention gets a decidely lukewarm reaction.

El Guapo found that even with his right-leaning political beliefs, he could find a place in Ithaca, New York.

Woo-hoo.. a winner.... Ithaca used to hold the record for the highest percentage of Volvos... I believe the picture is actually the "Volvo Ballet" from the Ithaca Festival Parade.

And if the thought of putting a tutu on his beloved Volvo is too much for our EG, there is always room for him to join the fabled and RUGGED He-Man Chain Saw Marching Band.

That's right: same annual parade!

--NEWS FLASH-- Ithaca, NY. -- Officials here are reviewing video tape of an apparent renegade Volvo 240 Sedan from yesterday's Ithaca Festival Parade that witnesses reported carried a bumper sticker reading "Happiness Is A Belt Fed Weapon". Several witnesses stated that the male driver wore a blue shirt, tan pants and that the vehicle may have had Missouri plates. :-D

The "belt fed happiness" bumper sticker is real -- it's on an old Toyota that parks outside city hall from time to time 8-!. Of course, it made me think of you, eG ;-)
