[comp.sys.amiga] My car doesn't start!

rogers@iris.ucdavis.edu (Brewski Rogers) (08/26/90)

HElp! My 1953 studebaker won't start! The mechanic didn't know how to fix it,
so i decided to seek the answer from the fount of all wisdom, DAVE HAYNIE!!!!

Details: 1953 Studebaker.
I bought it used from my brother in-law. I don't know anything about the
engine, but it makes weird noises! I think it is studebaker's fault for not
supporting their old users. I will definitely NEVER buy another studebaker,
let me tell you! You know, studebaker would sell more cars if they advertised
on TV. Well, DAVE HAYNIE!!!, what is wrong with the car? Please tell me the
cheapest solution, because I hate to spend too much money.

Please help me DAVE HAYNIE!!! you're my only hope!

NOTE: send responses by email, 'cuz I never read this dumb newsgroup, anyway.

	Hey, dude, if you don't like Studebakers, like why don't you just
stop reading comp.sys.studebaker.  Buy one of those Edsels ("The Car For The
Rest Of Us") or maybe an Internal comBustion Machine.  We won't miss you.
Nyaaaah.

	Studebaker has a fine record of supporting its customers.  Don't you
remember the "Stud-to-Stud-Plus" upgrade in 1957?  Sure, it was available
only in Albania, but remember that Studebaker is a multi-national corporation
and all of its parts are separate.  Or have never met.  I forget which.
Anyway, they are great.

	In fact, right now, if you are enrolled in a certified auto mechanic
school, you can take advantage of their new "Studentbaker Discount" program.
Get the new Studebaker 3500 with 68050 engine, math co-engine, 32-gallon
gasoline port, PowerWindows, drum storage brakes in front, 100 megabyte hard
disc brakes in back, wheel/joystick port, and the new "Seagate" proprietary
stiction-based emergency ignition that allows you to "jump-start" your car
by reaching into the engine and giving it a push.  All this for only
thirty-eight cents!

	So, like, take your complaints (and your anti-Studebaker hate
messages) elsewhere.

I think its high time we created a new news group for these questions.
Possibly "sci.ask.dave.haynie", or "rec.speaking.of.dave" would be
appropriate.

I also really think Commodore is mismanaging the whole situation.  If they
realized how much Dave really knows, they could fire their whole management
staff and turn the show over to him.  I also think that renaming the company
to "Haynie Computers" would do wonders for the stock.  I for one would prefer
seeing Dave's face on my Amiga rather than the standard chickenhead.
