A man finds a coin on the sidewalk as he approaches his Volvo automobile. His female companion then enters the picture as they both jockey to get in the driver’s seat. The solution: he flips the coin and she wins, placing her behind the wheel of the Volvo.
They embark on a driving trip in which coin tosses cause the journey to take different fun twists and turns along the way–including his losing and having to skinny dip, his winning and getting the chance to drive the automobile, whether or not to give a lift to a shepherd and so on. Each coin flip decision sparks a new adventure.
A parting super reads, “A different journey. The new Volvo V40.”

John Sauer, Trump's choice for solicitor general.
The argument submitted to the court is the latest example of Trump inserting himself in national issues before he takes office. The Republican president-elect has already begun negotiating with other countries over his plans to impose tariffs, and he intervened earlier this month in a plan to fund the federal government, calling for a bipartisan plan to be rejected and sending Republicans back to the negotiating table.
He has been holding meetings with foreign leaders and business officials at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida while he assembles his administration, including a meeting last week with TikTok CEO Shou Chew.
Trump has reversed his position on the popular app, having tried to ban it during his first term in office over national security concerns. He joined the TikTok during his 2024 presidential campaign and his team used it to connect with younger... Read More
