WTF... the sigline claims that it has been deleted when, clearly, it has not been..
EDIT: It has to have been the Luckey Lager... but I fixed it. _________________

Every so often I break into this song, at least under my breath. My friends like - or tolerate - it, especially the "put the pedal to the floor" line from the chorus.

We actually play this song before each and every road trip. It's sort of our pre-flight blessing.
Love it. _________________ 1986 Westy 2WD auto a.k.a. "The Old Girl"

My 14yrold son was not as moved as I was... must be the generational gap, perhaps if it was set to a different beat?
I will leave it in the sigline for a while... _________________
