Groovlstk, my wife showed me this video last night about women drivers and for some reason I thought about you and your new car! :hairraising:

Enjoy!

GOB

Thanks GOB, I'm having nightmares already :hairraising:

The title of that video (Le donne al volante + imbranate di youtube - woman drive!) echoes an old and wise Italian proverb:

Donne al volante,
pericolo ambulante.

(Women drivers, a wandering peril)

woman driver, a monkey with grenade

Does it rhyme in the original? We could ask Blues Fairy to make a blues out of it, entitled, say, Desperate Drivewives

.

No, in original it doesn't rhyme: a woman at the wheel is a monkey with grenade (Женщина за рулем - обезьяна с гранатой). But "Desperate Drivewives" sounds as a good idea

LOL, on the wife shopping for a car. My wife just let's me do my thing! I came home with this the other day and she was happy. Then she asked if I traded her Lincoln....LMAOROTF!

Dan, we have a clincher title, let's make this an RWD Project, we might yet sell it as background music for car commercials to some ailing US automotive company

.

OK, I supplied the title, who with some significantly blue experiences is going to write the music and lyrics

?

Beautiful rig, Boater. Did you buy it for yourself or your wife?

That remains to be seen. My wife still doesn't drive. She gets frustrated about it at times but still will not take the time to study and pass the test for a learners permit. I am beginning to think it ain't gonna happen. I have tried everything I can think of(even bought a car for her to learn in and didn't care if she took it to the demolition derby!). She even has a driver's manual in Russian.

Any suggestions on how to motivate a 48 year old woman who has never driven anything? Opps I forgot she had a bicycle when she was 8 but her mother took it away because she kept wrecking it and skinning her knees.

I can't see my wife driving that AMG. If she drives it like she does the boat...LOL on off she'll probably end up in the ditch. So yes..I bought it for me but we work together and most of the driving of it will be done together.

Actually a while ago I recorded a song entitled Баба за рулем ("Lady behind the wheel") - sort of an instruction for male drivers how to behave when they face this hazard.

Let's see if I can post a link...

Excellent tune BF.

You are really talented and have a nice voice.

My wife and I liked your song very much.

Blues Fairy, I like the song. And I join the guys you are very talented. Hope we also can enjoy the English variation of the song in the future

BF's song, however, does NOT sound desperate

.

In the absence of alternative offers, here's a little bluesy waltz I just sketched (preceded by an introduction in 4/4 that may remind you of a couple of other themes, and some additional things as well

). Any poets for the lyrics?

Longer version (I had time on my hands during the RWD black-out
