A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."

From arguably the best opening scene an the history of all filmdom.
"Bonasera . . . Bonasera . . . What have I ever done to make you treat me so disrespectfully? If you’d come to me in friendship, then this scum that ruined your daughter would be suffering this very day. And if by chance an honest man like yourself should make enemies, then they would become my enemies. And then they would fear you." "Some day and that day may never come, I’ll call upon you to do a service for me. But until that day—accept this justice as a gift on my daughter’s wedding day." Don Corleone - The Godfather, Circa 1972

Billy Baggles, Ocean Beach Life Guard, was flirting with the girls, delaying our appointment with alcohol that evening.
Me: "Baggles, are you coming?" Billy: "No just breathing hard...." Last edited by Littlebear; 08-02-2021 at 09:38 AM.. |

Success is a destination that doesn't necessarily have a straight pathway. You will have to forge your own path to get there.
-My father to 20 year old me. Life isn't fair. You have to play the hand you're dealt. -My parents to all of us as kids. We will either pay for a car when you graduate from HS or pay for your college. If you want a car, we suggest you earn scholarships for college. Otherwise you'll walk. -My parents to each of us when we started 9th grade. “Excuses are the tools of the weak and incompetent. They build bridges to nowhere and tunnels to nothingness... Those who excel in them seldom do in anything else, therefore, there are no excuses.” -Frank Ocean There is another version of this which ends, "Those that use them seldom amount to anything."

"Stop that crying or I'll give you something to cry about!"
and because I didn't stop crying.... "Don't put your hand back there!" - My Dad (aaaahhh....parenting in the 70's & 80's. Your child is in pain? That's the spirit! Beat that pain right out of them!) Second Formula 51 reference in 2 pages. Interesting. Enjoyed the movie but not sure I could quote it. |
