I tried to learn how to drive a stick shift but couldn't locate the manual.

don't worry, soon you'll be shifting automatically

And "heel and toeing" like a tap dancer.

Because he could perform in the clutch, he didn't need a manual...

 

[Gliderman8]

He could not drive stick because he had too much pressure on his plate.

 

[bugimike]

He could have done better if he had the right gear!

I was afraid this would be about some shiftless character!

Even bearing that in mind, I've found this to be an engaging thread.

 

[ecurie_ecosse]

And no "gate crashers".

[bugimike]

Actually sounds like the same old grind!

 

[Gliderman8]

I can't hear you guys... your transmission is breaking up.

 

[Darwin]

Like your clutch your puns are slipping.

You are right Stewart... the mechanic was shifty. He belonged to the Pistol Club. He would drink all night and pistol dawn.

 

[JPSmit]

Wow I'm impressed by all the responses to this pun - we're definitely synchronized on this one!

 

[ecurie_ecosse]

Though I did baulk at first,once the revs were up everything was gliding along.
