Well, now that I think about all this again, can we REALLY blame Detroit for bein' caught with their freakin' pants down right after the Arab Oil Embargo of '73???

HUH?! Now can WE?!

You're damned RIGHT we can!!!! The freakin' morons runnin' the show back then SHOULD HAVE FREAKIN' KNOWN that there was ALWAYS a market for smaller, well-made and more fuel-efficient cars...PERIOD!

(...aaaah, but what say we just blame all THAT on the "bad ol' gov'ment" too, HUH?!...I mean wasn't THEM who started mandating cleaner cars at just about that time TOO?!...yeah, what say we blame them again!)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
