And sometimes you really need it with a manual. I had rented a manual in Europe and was attempting to exit an underground parking garage in Ronda Spain. The exit ramp had to have been over 45 degrees. Thankfully there was no one tailgating me as I rolled backwards.

Emergency brake comes in handy in this. Just add more gas - the youngsters will like the chirping of the tires.

Complete Frustration. Sorry, but I need to vent!!!! I had to post this as I experienced the WORST customer service today at a local store here in town. I don't want to mention the name of the store because I'm not sure how I'm going to handle this. Last night I bought something from this store and I paid cash for it. I took it home and found out it didn't work. So today, less than 24 hours later I took it back to the same store and asked if I could get a refund. The cashier told me “NO” even though I still had the receipt. I asked if I could get a replacement instead, again she told me "NO." (Rude!!!!!)I asked to talk to a manager, as now I'm really not happy and I explained that I had just bought the item, had got it home and it didn't work. The manager just smiled.... SHE SMILED and told me straight to my face that I was "OUT OF LUCK”. I swear, the audacity!!! No refund. No FREE replacement. Grrrrrrrrr. I''ll tell you what...I am NEVER buying another Lottery Ticket from there again! EVER

A distraught senior citizen phoned her doctor’s office. "Is it true," she wanted to know, "that the medication you prescribed has to be taken for the rest of my life?" "Yes, I’m afraid so," the doctor told her. There was a moment of silence before the senior lady replied: "I’m wondering, then, just how serious is my condition because this prescription is marked ‘NO REFILLS."

The Roller Coaster, often nicknamed the White Roller Coaster due to the previously white color, at Lagoon Amusement Park in Farmington, Utah, United States, is the oldest roller coaster at the park. It is a wooden roller coaster owned by Lagoon. Built in 1921 and operating ever since, the Roller Coaster is the seventh oldest roller coaster in the world and the fourth oldest in the United States.
We need new material guys.
Too many reposts of old posts.
I have had at least 7 of my posts reposted.
The sad part is that the new reposts get more laughs than the original.
I too am guilty of doing at least one repost which I deleted with an apology.

My first thought was why does he have his learning manual printed on a sheet of paper and taped to the back window!
True story.
Cheers, RickO
I know where that is. It is an amusement park in Farmington, Utah.

Lagoon! Visited there as a child. Wonder if they still have the huge wood track roller coaster?
Didn't Toronto win one? So that would be Canada. Actually 2 isn't it?
