Talking The Big Yellow Monster

Dear Classic Oldsmobile Friends... The Holidays are here and I just wanted to share a little advice with all of you. The Other Night Syd .AKA The Governor of Fun and I drove 30 miles to celebrate Christmas Eve with my Family. And face it occasionally we all over indulge with Food and Adult Beverages .And I may have had 1 too many. Syd advises me that maybe we should take a Cab Home.Well finally maybe she is right .So off we go. Half way home I start to think I have never driven a Cab before in my Life. I think I did Ok but now I have this Big Yellow Monster "Not even an Olds" parked in the Pole Barn. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Your Friend Ron Roth Orion Township Michigan.... 30 miles North of the Murder City ..

Paint the yellow monster white or red and sell it before anyone gets wise....either that or you can now take your time and modify it into an EMS vehicle?? Install a sireeen, flashing lights and peeps will git out of your way right quick, even the police..

HH was one of the best shows of my day and John Bannerman was one of the main characters who could always be relied on to be 'predictable'. I love that blank look and tone he uses...
