Hurry while they last

Be still my heart!

Just got the news about my social security COLA for 2021. I'm getting a raise -- $11 a month! Wheeee!

If I'm not around for a few days, it's just because I'll be so busy moving into the lap of luxury.
Or so Mitch McConnell and his cronies believe.

Yup.

Absolute favorite holiday rerun

Car question?

Didn't know where else to post this, so . . .


Anyway, 2002 Dodge Caravan. Went to start it, rattled like a machine gun, dashboard dials spinning. Check engine light has been on for over three years.

Alternator, maybe? I really can't afford to get ripped off, so any help is very welcome!

Bought in 2009, it had 130K on odometer, I've added less than 20K.

TIA

UPDATE -- Friend brought his jumper cables and got the car running. We drove it to Auto Zone where they checked everything under the hood; alternator and starter are fine, but the battery needed replacing. I sat in the car while my friend and the Auto Zone guy talked hot rods as he replaced the battery. Also got new wipers, so now I can actually see where I'm driving.
Thanks for all the input, everyone!
