I can do that too, but it's hard to use a manual when applying lip gloss.

  • O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
Is anybody else here a fan of The Bowery Boys?  I remember one film where Sach has to drive a car and he's trying to figure out what PRNDL means and he decides that "R" stands for "right straight forward."

For some reason, this thread reminds me of that.

I'm not sure why because The Bowery Boys, including Sach Jones, seem way more intelligent and have more of an ability to reason than any primitive.

racist – A statement of surrender during an argument. When two people or disputants are engaged in an acrimonious debate, the side that first says “Racist!” has conceded defeat. Synonymous with saying “Resign” during a chess game, or “Uncle” during a schoolyard fight. Ori

Your tranmission selector lever will after next year no longer have an "N" or a "R"....they have both been declared RACIST.

He passed back in 1983. I loved his motorcycle story. The whole saga of JR and Baby still makes me  :rotf:

  • Look at my BIG feet! Woof!
You get a pass, REE! Little hard to use a clutch with only one leg in working order!

I had to teach "Toots" to drive my '67 Chevelle after we were first married. I tell her all the time it's the reason I had to have 6 screws put in my back! lol!

She then slaps me of course! I'm gettin' better at ducking though!
Yea...though I don't her, I have come to love Toots!  :-)
