Old Car Talk "Clunker" Dies...



Having just barely returned home from Austin, and another very enjoyable F1 race at COTA, nee Circuit Of The Americas, and now once again upon thee road so to speak; off to  see my dying 'Awntie Harriet, it seems somewhat karmic to have spotted the news of Thomas Louis Magliozzi's untimely death.

Just who was Thomas Louis Magliozzi
Y'all might be asking? 'whale, he was the older brother of the famous "Click 'N Clack" Car Talk radio show duo who at their height of popularity upon NPR had some  4-million listeners; Aye Karumba!

As if you're a "Car Guy or Gal," chances are you've heard the Car Talk program upon the airwaves at some point in time, and Thom's passing just seems one more idyllic reminder that all of us "Old Cars" sooner or later must  go to that great wrecking yard in the sky...
