• Inanimate objects are classified scientifically into three major categories - those that don't work, those that break down and those that get lost.

• Misery no longer loves company. Nowadays it insists on it.

• Is fuel efficiency really what we need most desperately? I say that what we really need is a car that can be shot when it breaks down.
