I dislike referring to my '88 Westie as a "van" - I prefer to call it a
"bus".  For some reason, "bus" has a better karmic feeling to it.  To me,
the word "van" conjures up images of an old Chevy cargo van with a broken
8-track player, duct tape over the windows and a hostage in the back.

Definitely a "bus" man, myself.  You?
