  1. Was that ‘Zimmer’? My ears aren’t what they were these days.

    Because I’ve transplanted them from my latest victim.

  2. Outside, Nxxx? What is this ‘outside’ of which you speak?

    All I’ve known for the last 11 years (count ’em) is my iMac screen and this post. And my man nappy.

  3. Once again, you commenters in England are talking over my head. My only recourse is to nod my head as if I understand, and hope there isn’t a quiz at the end.

  4. Apologies to the Cousins.

    Amongst the problems of the European Union, hope I got that right, is that they set minimum Value Added Tax on various class of produce including man nappies.

    Now my one remaining active brain cell is confused.

  5. But Nxxx, who gets to decide whether any value is added? I might value an iFlame rather highly if I’m in one of the tunnels, trying to ward off the grues. But if I’m on the sofa watching television, I might forget I even have an iFlame.

    Must be the March Madness…

  6. Let me point out that soon will be the one year anniversary of the last article posted by Moltz. Is it worth celebrating?

  7. Speaking only for myself: since I ran out of piñatas. I’m not buying a piñata for every minor event that comes along.

  8. Piñata pie. That sounds like fun.

    A pie plate with flaky crust filled with toys and candy, beaten mercilessly by a blindfolded tunnel-dweller. What could go wrong?

  9. And, hey! Anyone want some insurance? It’s the latest trend. One never knows what might befall one. Can’t be too careful nowadays…

  10. Can I get insurance against being pestered about insurance? Or better still, paying for my insurance.

  11. I’m quite sure that one of the recently commenting insurance hawkers here has exactly the kind of insurance-against-insurance product you need. Unfortunately it would require that you click on the link provided, which I believe would subject you to horrors that you would need other insurance to cover.

  12. Steve,
    Very easy and no fees.

    Look all does and windows, go out the front door, make sure it is locked and then drop all keys in the nearest drain or deep water.

  13. Mole people cannot swim.

    Boo Hoo, why did I not get 7250?

    It’s unfair, I never get a good post number,

    Wanders off, sobbing piteously………………

  14. Nxxx,

    Don’t cry…I promise that some good numbers are in your future. Post comments frequently to improve your chances, and you’re bound to win eventually.

  15. It would be more predictable (and easier to engage in shameless rounds of comment-stacking) if the page jumps occurred at round-numbered intervals. Like they used to, some time ago.

    I humbly request the Grammar Police to check my use of hyphens in the sentence above. I’m not sure I used them correctly.

  16. Nxxx, I consulted with the “The Master of Malaprop,” Norm Crosby, about your question, and he says it makes perfect sense to him.

  17. Steve G., I read what you wrote very carefully, and am astonished that you used the hyphens just as they are intended to be used—to avoid ambiguity. What’s the matter with you?

  18. Ace, if I answer that question, you’ll probably want financial compensation. Plus, I really don’t have that kind of time.

  19. The recent trend toward contentless commentary on the most recent article here at CARS makes me want to exclaim “Cheers!”

  20. I’ve just checked back. People are still posting! That’s quite sweet. Like sending letters to Santa. Or praying to a small but perfectly formed statue of Courtney Cox.

  21. I understand what the letters to Santa might bring, but what do you get if you pray to a statue of Courtney Cox?

  22. Clearly I’m too sophisticated to nibble on your bait, Steve. But I will perhaps text you something once the Feds have released my laptop.

  23. Nxxx,

    Then it would have been a double typo “prey on,” as I cannot figure out how one can “prey to” without falling. Then this just gets weird.

  24. I would say that “I wonder why I say such things.” But I know where that will lead (nowhere good). You would think that I would have learned by now, however many years it’s been.
