Driving Without

Warning: This post contains a great dose of daddy humor. Note too, that such brand of humor is different from tito humor. The former is usually corny (more tolerance/room for acceptance for fathers!) while the latter, green (manifested during rare visits at their nephew's, e.g. "O iho, binata ka na ah. INSERT GREEN JOKE HERE").

Last Saturday, we were homebound riding Mutya's car named Pilar. Suddenly by the street corner, it came to a stop and the "clutch was not biting." Yes, if I remember it right, Rona funnily suggested we Google search CLUTCH NOT BITING for us to troubleshoot. It's no laughing matter really, seeing Mutya's tired look, but being with the girls made room for a little dose of fun.

In this photo from Mutya's phone, we were making tambay by the sari-sari store after pushing the car... Just kidding! The repair was ongoing then:

When I told dad about this rare experience, he said there are many difficult possibilities when a lady is driving alone. One should be skilled in handling the following conditions:

1. Brakeless driving - You need to vocalize and rehearse. Just shout at the vehicles before you.

2. Steerless driving - Whether you wanna go right or left, it doesn't matter. It just goes straight ahead.

3. Headless driving - No headlight. Good luck!

4. Driverless driving - The driver fell asleep.

5. Combination: Headlight turns off, no steering and a lady appears offering to help... but her feet are not on the ground!
