Thomas Graves Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) Tommy, What do you mean? Automatic or manual? Tranny? I have a C-6 in my Ford. Get it? --Tommy Edited September 15, 2015 by Thomas Graves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliff Varnell Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 [Cue John Goodman in The Big Lebowski] Also, Dude, "tranny" is not the preferred nomenclature. "Trans person," please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Prudhomme Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Now, c'mon you guys, can't you see Mr. MacRae is trying to put forth a serious theory here? *snicker* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Prudhomme Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) P.S. Years ago, I had a Ford pickup with a New Process 435 in it. Edited September 16, 2015 by Robert Prudhomme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Ecker Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I rented a Ford Focus with an automatic transmission that I thought was manual because it had the gear shift (drive, low, reverse, etc.) right there beside me. When I decided to buy a Focus, I told the dealer I wanted a manual transmission, so he had a Focus with one brought in from about 100 miles away. I test-drove it and almost got myself killed trying to drive it. I got it back to the dealership in one piece and told the guy I had made a mistake. Which has nothing to do, of course, with the JFK assassination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is an assassination, is the dealer likely to "recognize" you from your arrest photo (in the unfortunate event you get picked up)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Ecker Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I dunno Ron. You drove like a maniac. What name did you use? I was too embarrassed to use my real name. I told them I was J. Edgar Oswald. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Ecker Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 She looks like she's saying "hello sailor, wink wink." to Lovelady. I don't think she has a prayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon G. Tidd Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 In my humiliation, I glimpse the Truth, fleeting though it may be. Yes, Duncan is referring to a transmission. The type found in the sort of trans-person freshmen engineering students create as robots. PM was an early-generation robot. That can be seen by the way the robot merges into the John Belushi Blues Brothers-like figure to its left back. Robots do that sort of thing. And by the way the robot drapes its long left "arm" over the black guy standing to its front. In the early 1960s, robots in public were programmed to do such a thing, as a sign of racial harmony. It didn't work especially well, but it was well-intentioned. I see it all, now. Thanks to Thomas Graves, Cliff Varnell, and Larry. But most importantly, thanks to Duncan McRae.

Greg Parker Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 While it is entirely possible that I am wrong in agreeing with Patrick Jackson about Scarf Lady being the mystery person, I am 100% confident that the mystery Button Lady figure formerly known as Prayer Man is in fact a woman, and she is probably holding a purse in front of her in a classic female pose. Um. No Duncan. The blob on the right is a reflection in the glass. PM has his arms folded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Ecker Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Did your parents ever ask you to run away from home? My parents told me to never go anywhere with a stranger unless he offered me some candy first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Parker Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 and who is McRae? Obviously not the mother of the whiny Scot who complained to the mods that his mother was dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Prudhomme Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Duncan can see all kinds of things in that photo that no one else can see. I'll take a pound of whatever it is he is smoking, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
