But you are a good guy! That's one of my points, the scum aren't into them.

I have an old friend (my oldest friend I still see) who I grew up with CARS (and motorcycles) and we have always went over to the others house to show the other guy our new car when we get one. When I got the Rambler running I drove over and handed him the keys. Now mind you, this guy is an experienced autocrosser with a collection of Vettes. He got in and starred at the shifter wiggling it and said ok, what do I do? LOL He said that the last time he had driven a three on the tree was around 1976 when I taught him how to drive a manual transmission in my 64 Nova! LOL
