Alright, everyone on their toes! A brief questionnaire before our next smashing program.
1) What was the significance of a Hollywood Muffler?
2) What is a “Woody?”
3) Where would you find a “Rumble Seat?”
4) Have you ever seen a “Pinstripe?”
5) What would you do if your passenger said “Roscoe” and “Louie” at the same time?
6) Where would you find the Governor if not in Lansing?
7) One for the money, two is one more, three to get ready and what is “four on the floor?”
8) The actress Dagmar was quite a babe, but what was her relevance to the car business?
9) What would you do to earn a “bird dog fee?”
We will hear about the one industry that made America, and probably won us at least one World War – the automobile business. Our speaker is Domenic R. Federico, the owner of Good Friends Auto on 29th Street. The reports about the car business may be grim but not necessarily for the consumer. There are reports that it may be cheaper to purchase a new car!
Bring a guest – possibly even a car buff, and walk away with a Meijer Gift Card.
Invocator: Mr. Eric Nelson
Introducer: James Booth Burr, Jr., Esq.
Cars: “Is fuel efficiency what we need most desperately: I say what we really need is a car that can be shot when it breaks down.” Russell Baker
