"Wow!" said the dad to the blond-haired little boy next to him. "Did you see that? That was awesome! I didn't know cars like that existed!"
The little boy was jumping up and down and yanking wildly on his father's arm in excitement. "Dad, dad! It's a rowbert! Just like in Transformers! It's a rowbert car!"
So, our van has a name now. We have dubbed it Rowbert, and no doubt we will have many exciting adventures together saving the world from other evil alien robots-- I mean rowberts-- who want to destroy it.
This is totally feeding right into Jeremy's plans to mount a 122mm tank gun on the hood. The only real argument I have against this is that the good Transformers used mostly disabling weapons and not guns. He'll probably come back with some plan to strap velociraptors to the roof. I haven't done a whole lot of research into the Transformers, but there probably aren't any velociraptor restrictions. Oh well.
Any ideas for a theme song?

I whole-heartedly approve of this message. I think you could Rowbert into Mordor once you get the velociraptor manned tank gun thang goin' on.
Row, row, row your bert,
gently down the road...
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a...uh...toad

Jing, the only way that song could work is if it were accompanied by death metal guitars.
Then it's kind of catchy.

I propose an ion cannon for the front weapon. I provides the weapon like look for Jer and the disabling criteria for you!

There's a song by They Might Be Giants called "Robot Parade", which cracks me up each time I hear it. Perhaps it could be modified slightly to fit Rowbert?
Here's a link to it on youtube:

Love your sense of humor!
I'm going with "row your bert"
That's just beyond awesome =)
That is so hilarious! I'm glad your van has a name now!
This post made me laugh out loud! Rowbert is a great name.
