Pressing the clutch in such a fine car was such delight. And the thrill of hitting the gas pedal, of that roar from the twin tailpipes!
Tomorrow Fronzy’s gonna sign up for a thousand shares of new GM stock. And he won’t tell Tilda about it for as long as possible.
Cause Tilda won’t be happy about it. Just like she wasn’t happy about that bloated gas guzzler, as she calls it, in the first place.
But there are some things a man’s gotta have, and there are some things a man’s gonna do.

I've lived with that sort of man so I know!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering when someone was going to write about cars and their clutches :)
ReplyDeletethere's something about a man and his love of machinery.
ReplyDeleteGood one with the 'Clutch'... have to agree with ThomG
ReplyDeleteWhat a great Springsteenian moment, detailing (pun intended) America's love affair with Detroit rolling iron.
