Quite frankly I think I have the best signature in the universe. The author is clearly a genius ahead of his time.

A little run of the mill arrogance works. Dab of humor...... :thumbup:

Arrogance? I claim no accomplishment whatsoever. I did nothing but copy and paste. The author deserves all the credit. It really is a most extraordinary metaphor (simile). Beautifully poetic, highly creative, and completely absurd. Think about it, to compare using disc brakes and farting, and to do so in a stylish manner in a language that is not your native tongue is a positively Shakespearian accomplishment. And it makes me laugh everytime I post.

Someone had "friends don't let friends ride Tufos" :D I always thought that was a good one.
