    Posted Wed Dec 19, 2012 4:06PM | Strangely, after 65 posts punning on motor vehicles, it looks as if the whole thing has become a bit of a blur, Wendy.
Now, back to folk. Did you know ... |

     Posted Thu Dec 20, 2012 9:10AM | Anyone remember that dog that could say "Sausages" that was featured on "That's Life" back in the 70s? |
    Posted Thu Dec 20, 2012 9:56AM | Kill me. |

See I knew someone would remember!
And then of course there was "Blind Date"
Another cultural gem! |

All right. Then I'd suggest the Yugo. Or the Chevette or Vega - either will suffice. Perhaps a nice Pinto? You'll likely get nowhere fast with any of these prime choices - with the added benefit that you'll be cursing and raging until your temple veins pop...
You're welcome.  |
  Posted Thu Dec 20, 2012 3:01PM | The only Pinto I want Ted is a Pinto-f good malt whiskey  |

The fiendish torment of the rack and pinion perhaps? Or the red hot manifolds? No we will start with the dis-assembly of the Hardy Spicer joint! An amusing pastime! |
    Posted Fri Dec 21, 2012 12:58AM | In this tortured wasteland of automotive puns and TV trivia, what is this that shimmers afar? Can it be the fabled Christmas Oasis?
Praise the Lord! Peace at last. I'm away for the duration...
Merry Christmas, everyfolk! |
     Posted Fri Dec 21, 2012 3:12AM | ^Sounds like a wise move! Merry Christmas Roger! |

Good for you Roger. An Eclipse sounds perfect right about now. Happy/Merry Christmas/Holiday Season!!
To you too Dave, and to every other shenanaganite who posted here. What a group of LuminaAries!! This Spectrum of Souls - each leaving a touch of Spirit - like a Supreme Silver Dawn, or a Supra Silver Shadow - or even the odd Stealth Silver Cloud - has been a joy to Vue. A Journey. A Lark. A Triumph.

The English word folk is derived from a Germanic noun, fulka meaning 'people' or 'army' (i.e. a crowd as opposed to "a people" in a more abstract sense of clan or tribe).
In other words, the wide use of 'folks' is based on a misapprehension – the same misapprehension that has early learners of English declaring that they have seen a field of sheeps. Or cattles.
When it comes to information it is popular to discredit Wikipedia. Copying Hollywood is more risky.
That's all, folk!
Browsing a Southern US cookbook I came across someone that speaks like you:
"... cut up the possum into rabbit pieces. Thata way the city folk'll never know they eating possum." |

Vauxhall this about? An interesting fact followed by a Lada puns???
ETA: I used to work for Lada (for 12 years) so have heard every Lada joke. Like the heated rear windscreen is to keep your hands warm while you push it to the garage where they greet you with "what Samara with it now?"
Tata for now

    Posted Fri Mar 22 1:32AM | So now this turns into the Paolo - Paula show. Who'd a thunk?
I don' speak like no gosh darn Suth'ner, Paolo, so you won' hear me neither a-hootin' nor a-hollerin'.
Paula, I would like to thank you for resurrecting the auto puns. I really would. Where's Ted when you wish he was at home asleep in his basket? |
