Wow! Towed twice in 7 days!

Think I'll airbrush on the back of my trunk lid a tow truck towing the Audi logo with the caption, "Runs Great When It's "Off the Hook!""

And about that automatic versus stick debate:

Score one more for automatics, because even though the "mystery" of automatics makes some folks afraid of "all the extra hydraulic complexities", the clutch pedal on my stick fell to the floor and left me mid span on the Tappan Zee Bridge last night in bumper-to-bumper traffic. This meant having to stop and start the car with the starter to make it off the bridge and get to a safe point to be towed. 
I was sure wishing that I built the automatic car instead! (NO Ron, my stick is NOT for sale. If I was ready to sell, it would be too expensive anyway, even though there would most likely be no takers.) The stick car is a fun ride, but the automatic version is way more practical, and performs way better!

Now, I'm about to find out if the slave cyl can be replaced w/o removing the Trans! 
Wish me luck!

Thanks,
