Pop the clutch. I'm convinced no one under 30 can drive a standard transmission. ] May be true in the city, ain't true at all in the country. Though not all can drive a clutch in the country any more. But most can. Even my wife does, not great at it, but can do as needed

New one on me but I have heard of "Hoover Gravy". It was used a bunch when I was small. That and sawmill gravy. miles Might be the same thing, I dont know. Granddad made toodlem gravy, every morning, to eat with his biscuits. He poured about equal parts of syrup and bacon drippings in his plate, then added a generous amount of butter. Stirred it all together.... WAALAA, toodlem gravey!

The REO was a truck made by Ransom E Olds's car company Not just trucks, my uncle kept a Flying Cloud in his garage...named after a schooner, image of which was at the center of the spokes of the drivers wheel.

That's undoubtedly the most creative phonetic "spelling" of voila that I've ever seen!

Highball (asked several pages ago) is a railroad term. They used a ball on rope or pole at the station, if it was high, you could (proceed) at high speed for the next section of track. That. And if the ball was low, you were to stop at the station. No balls on poles now, but the term sticks. "Highball the work"....leave the cars scheduled to be added to the train.

Doc Howell, did you ever dip tar? No, but I've changed a few by the side of the road.

"Double Clutch" not many know how to do it today. I had a kid driving one of my haylage trucks last week and he wanted to know how come he couldn't shift down without grinding the gears. I told him to double clutch it. Huh? What's a double clutch?
