    The transmission was the piece that stood athwart the rest of the truck, yelling, “Stop!”

    TRANSMISSION COMPLETE. Well, minus a few screws and other peaces. Nothing to really worry about. That noise? Oh, that’s just the parts being blown. No, there really is no way to say this from anywhere else but the corner. Corey!

      :skips away singing:

      Someone’s in the corner with Corey,
      Someone’s in the corner I know-oh-oh-oh.

    Yet I should kill thee with much thwarting.

    Peaceing is such sweet sorrow,

    That I shall say good night till it be morrow.

        Caesarian Thwarting is Justin Bieber’s new song …. or name for his baboon ….or big end ….. or something ….
        Alternatively its what the midwife should have done with /to him…..

          Please remember he is Canadian. The US has produced some things we are not proud of, but that is not one of them.

    How many Coreys can there be on YSaC
    Before they get their own tag?
    How many peaces can he be parting out.
    Before they start thwarting this gag?

    Transmissions my friend, are blowing into bits.

    It used to be a chevy sileverado 2000, but apparently he sold 4 parts already.

      I wish I could be indignant about the use of my name here, but if the odor fits, you know.

    Give us this day our cylinder head, and forgive us our transmissions….

      Lead us not into gear-stripping, but deliver us from vapor lock.

    Transmission blew what?
    Revillie?[*]
    Taps?
    Boots-and-saddles?
    The ever-inspiring “Fix Bayonets”?
    [pretend there’s more bons mots featuring obscure military bugle calls and at least one juxtaposition of the equivalent titles “bugler” and “field music”]

    Instead let us Scaramouche, every way the wind blows, to implore Corey to turn away from Ritchie Haven’s question of “Thwart, what is it good for?” And, instead, to join our chorus of “Give Piece A Chance” minty or otherwise.

    _____________________________________
    *Please, dear readers, imagine a well-crafted html table that not only neatly sorts the names of the storied bugle calls, but also neatly links them to a webpage of audio samples of same, instead of these soundschevy and furiessliverados, signifying nothing.

    My transmission just blew

    [corey] Transmissions transfer engine rotations into wheel rotations at various ratio translations in order to keep the engine in one RPM range while accelerating the wheels across a larger range of speeds. They don’t blow, dummy. That’s the horn, Corey. [/corey]

      Now, saying that your tranny blew… well that’s a different thing entirely.

      I’ll be in the corner.

        That would be posted in Casual Encounters instead of Cars & Trucks.

        Er, that’s what a friend told me.

    So glad to see that Corey is moving on to bigger and better things. But he dropped his tags.

      He didn’t drop them, the bumper fell off the truck.

    Corey is off to thwart peace and blow trannies. At least he is following his dreams, matter how much they resemble a David Lynch movie.

    Side rant; what use is it to have the good medicine if you can’t bloody take it because it makes it too difficult to focus at work?
