RE: Jeremy's *motors and drivers*

Actually, in german there is no "engine" Engines are motors and motors are
motors, since you're talking about german cars you just have to say "motor" with
a german accent, but then you're definitely not good-ol' boyish!

Kinda like Michael Schumacher, reigning Formula 1 champion. He rear-ended (more
rear quartered, I guess) someone in a traffic jam this summer, because he was
changing radio stations and was not paying attention to the road.
It can happen to you, too.
