Confession... its good for the soul...

[Oldfart]

I confess that it saddened me to hear that the US has called a halt to further F-22 Raptor manufacture. This means that the fleet will have to work twice as hard.

[Lilith]

I confess that for just a moment today I was a superstar :p

[Oldfart]

I confess I thought you were always a superstar, ours.

[Lilith]

I confess- I'm homesick and sentimental and that^^^^ made me cry.

[Aqua]

Of course it did, Lil... it's true.

I confess I am looking forward to vacation, but sad I won't be able to visit my #1 desired destination.

[Lilith]

/nick destination

[dicksbro]

I confess, I'll be glad to get this "fanny pack" pumping additional medicine into me off this afternoon.

[Lilith]

I confess Phil Mickelson is solid man and sexy as hell.

[Pita]

I confess that it's good to have the kid home after being two months away. I even like the sound of that god-awful music coming from her room. :D

[dicksbro]

I confess, I'm sure not liking these silly Japanese beetlles that are attacking our birch trees :( ... but I am liking the spray and seeing all the little buggers starting to fall to the ground now that I've sprayed the trees. :)

[Pita]

I confess that I better get this job at Starbucks, or I'm going postal. Just saying! :nod:

[sodaklostsoul]

I confess I'm not the same as I was a few years ago.

[Fangtasia]

I confess i am really enjoying this week, its been excellent.

[Oldfart]

I confess I'm a little mixed. I'm having a great time at Oshkosh, but just heard of two old workmates passing away.

[Fangtasia]

I confess i just had my tax done today, and i got a far better return than i thought i would...wooohooooo

[txgrneyes]

I confess..... I want to be :spank: :sex: :69: :kisser: :licker: :hump: and hair pullling....

[IAKaraokeGirl]

I confess my house is very quiet.

[Aqua]

I confess I really wish I could jump in a car and drive North.

[IAKaraokeGirl]

I confess I was busy tonight, with lots to show for it.

[osuche]

I confess I got my oil changed today....and I only had to wait 45 minutes!

[Irezumi Kiss]

I confess I should be asleep, but I'm up imbibing and fucking around on the internet!

[osuche]

I confess I could be hiking or working out, but I am playing on Pixies.

[Pita]

I confess that I've been thinking about that move he did on me this morning all damn day. WOW!

[CuteCoupleOz]

I confess that I've been thinking about that move he did on me this morning all damn day. WOW!

(good to see you, my friend, how's life?)

[IAKaraokeGirl]

I confess I'm in a bit of a funk.

I confess I am really under the weather.

[CuteCoupleOz]

I confess I don't want to do anything today but have a housefull of to-do's.

[dicksbro]

I confess, I may need to dress a little warmer this morning for our Erin Feis or Irish Festival in Peoria.

[pinkFlames]

I confess I don't want to do anything today but have a housefull of to-do's.

---kathy

I confess I suffer from that condition every day.

[Fangtasia]

I confess i'm loving the rental car i picked up this morning *L* Hmmmm ya reckon they might trade! Brand spankin' new too!!!

[Lilith]

I confess this year is probably more than I can do.

[jennaflower]

I confess I miss this place... and so many of the wonderful people here. I also confess that I wish I were here more often.

[IAKaraokeGirl]

I confess I can echo many of jenna's sentiments as well. (Hi Jenna!)

[dicksbro]

I confess, we're sure experiencing some beautiful weather right now.

[IAKaraokeGirl]

We are, too, DB! (Sure you're not around the corner?) :)

[dicksbro]

I confess, I didn't really sleep good last night for some reason. :(

[sodaklostsoul]

I confess I'm sorry to hear that DB..........was your tv on too.

[Oldfart]

I confess I miss this place... and so many of the wonderful people here.

In spite of PF and I being here?

[Pita]

I confess to pushing myself a little too hard at the gym this morning and I hope I can walk later. :eek:

[Fangtasia]

I confess i've still got a residual headache from yesterdays migraine

[dicksbro]

I confess, this weather is almost too good to be true. :boink:

[Maleslut1186]

The weather here in NJ is unbearably rotten. A Noreaster is pounding the coast and my boat is swinging wildly on it's mooring. I got drenched just checking onit at sunrise today

[IAKaraokeGirl]

I confess I had a blast at chorus last night.

[dicksbro]

I confess, my wife and I miss the times IAKG would drive by our little town and we'd have dinner together. :(

[pinkFlames]

I confess, I'm on the Internet again instead of tending to my housework.

[IAKaraokeGirl]

I confess, my wife and I miss the times IAKG would drive by our little town and we'd have dinner together. :(

I confess those meetings were great. :)

[osuche]

I confess, I am a rollercoaster of emotions.

[Oldfart]

I confess I haven't ridden a rollercoaster since childhood.

[Lilith]

I confess there is one in a Vegas hotel you can ride.

[Oldfart]

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[BIBI]

I confess I love a good ride.....on a rollercoaster! :)

[Oldfart]

I confess that may be just a tad uncomfortable, and public for me.

[dicksbro]

I confess, our hopes to make it to Vegas have diminished a bit. :(

[Oldfart]

I confess I hope DB's hopes undiminish a bit.

[Pita]

I confess that I have tomorrow off and I plan to have some serious sexual relations with my sweetie. :nod:

[dicksbro]

I confess, TT's AV has me feeling a bit warm. :hot:

[Oldfart]

I confess TT's avatar does nothing at all for me, he lied.

[Aqua]

I confess I think something is wrong with me. I haven't masturbated since last Friday... or felt much of an urge to. :confused:

[Oldfart]

Pull yourself together Man.

[Lord Snow]

I confess, when I left for work yesterday morning there were two glasses in the sink. When I came home that evening the sink was full, and it was pot luck for dinner. Makes me wonder how the only two people that were home all day could make such a mess.

[Aqua]

I confess I have pulled myself together. ;)

[pinkFlames]

I confess I would've loved to have seen Aqua pull himself together.

[Aqua]

I confess yesterday you would have had three opportunities. :D

[Jax]

I confess that too often I lose perspective.

[dicksbro]

I confess, I smiled at a note I received today from someone who I consider to be a very good friend.

[Pita]

I confess that I don't have to work tomorrow and my man is getting some special attention come morning. :brows:

[dicksbro]

I confess, I think I'm going to lay back down for another hour or so. :boink:

[Pita]

I confess that I hope today's gathering doesn't turn into a disappointment.

[Winston77]

I confess I love RED HEADS

[Neige]

I confess that I made a fantastic cake last night!

[PantyFanatic]

I confess she should bake PIES! :bite: Not cake.

[Neige]

Ah, but I like pumpkin cake better than pumpkin pie.

[imaginewithme]

I confess I just wanna curl up in bed under my new beautiful comforter and take a long nap

[PantyFanatic]

I confess I just wanna curl up in bed under my new beautiful comforter and take a long nap
I confess I'm with you on that ^^^. :thumb:

















(... or at least would love to be ;) )

[BIBI]

I confess................

OK, now, what's the punishment??? :thumbs:

[Oldfart]

Consorting with us.

[Lord Snow]

I confess, I'd rather have tomarrow off and go back to the gym than go to work.

[sodaklostsoul]

I confess its time. I have to find me again and do what is best for my daughter too. She and I will be moving into our own place this weekend. I didn't think I could swing it on my own but I can and I'm feeling bad for waiting last minute in telling him.

[Oldfart]

I confess I wish I could do more than hope it works out.

[Lord Snow]

I confess I miss my waterbed, though the hotel bed isn't that bad.

[gekkogecko]

I confess that I'm earning the enmity of my housemates & friends by extolling the virtues of more snow.

[Chase]

I confess my pixies addiction is back in full swing. :help:

[DaveW]

I confess 3 things:

I am glad that I found Pixies
I don't want to go to work today
I was very sorry for you guys coping with the white stuff, what did you do??
Sent it over here that's what! :)

[Aqua]

I confess... my marriage is in trouble and I am sad.

[Rhiannon]

i confess that i feel sad for aqua

[soph]

I confess to having three orgasms before dinner!

[Lilith]

I confess Aqua will be fine just as long as he can find a bear.

[Aqua]

Rhiannon ~ Thank you.

Lil ~ Do you think it will be more impressive if it's still alive when I bring it home.

[dicksbro]

I confess, Aqua, our hearts and thoughts go out to you. We'll keeping praying for the best.

DB

[Aqua]

Thank you, DB... I will take all the prayer I can get.

[Lilith]

Lil ~ Do you think it will be more impressive if it's still alive when I bring it home.


Only if you reach in it's chest and rip it's still beating heart out and hand it to her :p

[Aqua]

:rofl:

[Oldfart]

Do you think it will be more impressive if it's still alive when I bring it home.

It probably doesn't matter, it's fucked either way.

[sodaklostsoul]

I confess I wish I could do more than hope it works out.
Were good. :)

[sodaklostsoul]

I confess... my marriage is in trouble and I am sad.
Hugs dude!!

[BIBI]

I confess that OF gave me my laugh for the day!

[Oldfart]

I confess I have that effect on women.

[BIBI]

I confess I have that effect on women.

It's a wonderful effect OF :thumbs:

[Oldfart]

Lol

[jbh3]

Had my pre-op today and it finally sunk in....they're gonna cut me open next Friday!!!....kinda nervous........kinda..

(Having a disc replaced in my neck)

[osuche]

I wish you luck, jbh3 -- and I am sure the surgery will go great! My grandfather had the same in September and he was out of the hospital very quickly. He's healed completely.

I confess that I need someone to throw me down on the bed and ravish me.

[PantyFanatic]

... I confess that I need someone to throw me down on the bed and ravish me.
I confess you came back to the right place just in time. :tongue:

[Pita]

I confess that I really hate having a cold. :banghead:

[Oldfart]

Ditto.

I've probably only a day or so left with this one.

[dicksbro]

I confess, I when there were several things that you want or needed to do ... they didn't all happen at once. :(

[Vicious Tease]

I confess I'm in a really bitchy mood today.

[osuche]

I confess I am planning to see a comedy show tonight, and it's going to be fun!!

[Oldfart]

I confess I'm hoping that osuche can make it to Vegas for PAGAN10.

[osuche]

I confess I hope so, too. It would be awesome fun.

[dicksbro]

I confess, it's sure good to see you here, osuche.

[osuche]

:love:

[pinkFlames]

i confess I've had a rotten day.

[osuche]

Sorry to hear that, Pink Flames. I hope tomorrow is better.

I confess I skipped my workout this morning because my hamstrings were too sore.

[Oldfart]

i confess I've had a rotten day.


With luck the Easter Bilby will be very nice to you.

[shadowsfate]

I confess that I miss my boy very much, even though he's only been gone since Wednesday evening on an Easter trip to his grandparent's (and even though, when he is here, we drive each other nuts. The joys of having a teenager in the house :rofl: )

[pinkFlames]

With luck the Easter Bilby will be very nice to you.

Nah, I reckon the Easter Bilby eloped with the Bunny this year.

[Lord Snow]

I confess, I need a shower and don't feel like actually taking one, I need to rewash and wax my motorcycle, I'm really hoping someone gets back to me on a 67 Galaxie I'm interested in purchasing, and I really hate looking at my wrecked Lebaron.

[rabbit]

I confess that Osuche's new pics made me swoon.

:faint:

[osuche]

I confess I need to reach out to ^^^

And I also confess I appreciate the compliment.

[osuche]

I confess I ran into some old paperwork and items of my father's, as I was rummaging through my files to find my car donation receipt. I didn't make my afternoon.

[osuche]

I confess I'm visiting Pixies more because I have my personal computer up and loaded with TurboTax and it's online...which is not a standard occurance in my house. Taxes gives me Pixies time...hmmm...

[Coaster]

I confess that osuche is a beautiful woman................... inside and out!

[Oldfart]

Please don't let me say it.

Please don't let me say it.

Please don't let me say it.

Please don't let me say it.

Please don't let me say it.

[dicksbro]

I confess that osuche is a beautiful woman................... inside and out!

Yep, yep, yep. :boink:

Taxes gives me Pixies time...hmmm...

Never thought I'd say it ... "YEA FOR TAXES."

[imaginewithme]

I confess it's been far too long since I've checked in on my pixie friends.

[Neige]

I confess that I learned today I get to have employment insurance benefits!!!!!!!!!!! Oh I am so happy, money was starting to be really tight... w00t!!!!!!!!

[Lord Snow]

I confess that I'm only going to have work 1.5 days this week and I love it. Before anyone worries, the company I work for allows us to use sick and vacation time to cover any time lost due to lack of work. Course we're shutting down soon, so that won't be much of a problem.

[dicksbro]

I confess, I could take weather like what we've been having all year round. :)

[Aqua]

I confess... I'm unhappy that my marriage is ending.

[Rhiannon]

I confess that i need to give aqua a hug..

HUGGGGGGGG

[Oldfart]

I confess that I've had the helpless feeling that Aqua's feeling, watching a marriage wreck and you can't do a thing about it.

[Lilith]

I confess... I'm unhappy that my marriage is ending.


I confess TaXXXman's getting nervous ;) :p

[Aqua]

I confess... Lilith just made me laugh.

Thank you!

[Lilith]

I confess Vegas may be hotter than expected this July.

[Lord Snow]

I confess Vegas may be hotter than expected this July.

With our fearless Moderatrix and other Pixie women there? How could it not be?

[PantyFanatic]

I confess Vegas may be hotter than expected this July.
I'm going to be there anyway. http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-fc/sweat.gif (http://www.freesmileys.org)

[Oldfart]

I confess Vegas may be hotter than expected this July.

Is Aqua swimming to Vegas up the underground river?

[dicksbro]

The casinos are air conditioned. :boink:

[PantyFanatic]

Everywhere else better be air conditioned too. :doorpeek:

[Aqua]

Is Aqua swimming to Vegas up the underground river?
;)

:nod:

[Lilith]

He's going to pop up through the drain in my bathtub!

[dicksbro]

Will he be disguised as a rubber duck?

[Neige]

I confess that since I don't have any cake pans at this place, I'm going to try to bake my birthday cake in a roaster pan.

[Oldfart]

Line it with baking paper and it should be fine at low temperature.

[Neige]

I'll do that!

[imaginewithme]

I confess I wish this weekend wouldn't end! :wink:

[dicksbro]

I confess, my wife and I enjoyed watching Avatar again. :boink:

[Pita]

We moved to a smaller apartment today. This was the first time I ever had movers to move my stuff. It was heaven! Of course unpacking and finding new places for all my stuff is exhausting, but at least I didn't have to haul it down a flight a stairs. :nod:

[dicksbro]

Congrats on your new home, Tess! Try putting things away in the nude ... makes the job more fun. :) (And be sure to take pictures ... that lets us share in the fun! :D )

I confess, I could have slept another hour or two this morning.

[pinkFlames]

I confess I've been spending too much time at my computer.

[dicksbro]

I confess I've been spending too much time at my computer.
Don't think of it as too much time at your computer ... think of it as spending quality time with your friends! :)

[pinkFlames]

I confess I don't have enough hours in the day.

[imaginewithme]

I confess I had a great day yesterday and thinking today will be just as awesome!

Beach anyone?

[dicksbro]

I confess to also having had a good day yesterday and another good one today. :thumbs:

[Fangtasia]

I confess i bought a new mobile phone today...cant wait to get it!

[Oldfart]

And it was a . . . . . . . ?

[Neige]

I confess that I just snapped my glasses in two.

[Lord Snow]

I hope it's because you either got new ones or lasik. I like the idea of lasik, means we can see your pretty eyes better.

[Neige]

Unfortunately, no, hehe. I was cleaning them and they snapped. :( I've had them since 2004 though, so I guess it was time for me to get new ones. Luckily I have contact lenses, who knows how long it'll take before I get to see my eye doctor to get a new prescription.

[Fangtasia]

And it was a . . . . . . . ?
Samsung Jet

I'm hoping you are talking to me in asking that *LOL*

[Oldfart]

When would I not be talking to you? Paranoia?

[Fangtasia]

Paranoia? Who's she?

I may have lots of me's, but i dont recall that being one of them *rofl*

[Oldfart]

I used to be schizophrenic, but we're fine now.

[Lord Snow]

Could I please have some quiet? I can't hear the voices in my head.

[PantyFanatic]

:hair: Some mornings it's just not worth chewing through the straps.

[Fangtasia]

I confess i am now back at work on full duties.....ankle is certainly better but still not right, anyway will see how it copes. If it doesnt, i imagine i'll be in for a fight, considering they are saying that is should be perfectly fine by now. Yep see they know apparently how MY ankle feels *rolleyes*

[Lord Snow]

Sometimes, science isn't quite exact.

[PantyFanatic]

Science is! Practitioners aren't.

[ShadowDancer]

I confess...my dear husband scared the holy crap out of me yesterday! he better not EVER hide chest pain from me again!

[dicksbro]

I confess, it's discouraging when you're going to be busy while the nice weather is here ... then get time to enjoy it when the rain and thunderstorms start. :(

[Aqua]

I confess I am still in shock that my wife actually had me served with a restraining order... just to force me out of the house.

[pinkFlames]

I confess I should be in the shower right now.

[Lilith]

I'm excited about going to the Blue crab Festival tomorrow.

[Lord Snow]

I confess I am still in shock that my wife actually had me served with a restraining order... just to force me out of the house.

WTF man! That's gotta suck.

[PantyFanatic]

I confess, it's discouraging when you're going to be busy while the nice weather is here ... then get time to enjoy it when the rain and thunderstorms start. :(
Better than having to be busy IN the rain and thunderstorms. :shrug:

[Lord Snow]

If it was just rain I'd go play in it, but since we're supposed to get thunder and lightening as well this weekend.....................but then I have to work.

[Aqua]

WTF man! That's gotta suck.
It did at first, but now it's almost a blessing in disguise.Except for the fact I can't go to the house and get any of my stuff that is still there.

[dicksbro]

I confess, I don't understand why you can get the court's permission to retireve your stuff from the house, Aqua. :confused:

[Oldfart]

If you can identify the stuff you want most, on the grounds of need or fear that she may destroy them, can you hire a removalist to get the stuff out? A skype connected PC could give instructions if adjudication is required. A sheriff's deputy could help keep it nice. Worth the ask and it'd piss her off no end.

[Fangtasia]

I confess i got my new Phone! It's taken me until today to get the software up and running (original didnt like Win7), so now i am in the process of Vamping it up *LOL*

[PantyFanatic]

.... (original didnt like Win7), so now i am in the process of Vamping it up *LOL*
Sounds like your phone really sucks. :vamp:

[Oldfart]

LOL

I confess I'll be really glad to be back in Darwin day after tomorrow.

[Lord Snow]

I confess, I love my new (just got the Palm Pre) and really hate the current weather. Today, rain; tomarrow, rain; Monday you ask??.............rain. We're already flooded here in the Middle Tennessee area.

[Fangtasia]

I confess i went to a Heavy Horse show today, damn they are such magnificent creatures!

[nikki1979]

I confess......ive really missed yall!!!

[Lilith]

((nikki)) nice to see you!

[nikki1979]

(((((lilith)))) u2!!! long story, but im back LOL! hoping to find forgiveness for my time away!!!!

[Oldfart]

I confess that I'm tempted to quote PF here.

Welcome back nikki1979.

[BIBI]

I confess I am listening to Lenny Kravitz

[PantyFanatic]

I confess this seems to be a day for prodigal daughters. :cool:

[Oldfart]

I confess that wasn't the quote I was thinking of.

[PantyFanatic]

:rofl:

[Neige]

Reading a second language requires effort. I confess that I frequently skip posts that are poorly written because they need all the more work to make head or tail of... (And I'm not even an old fart! ;) )

[nikki1979]

I confess , I am sure I am one of ^^^^^those people^^^^^ ..........sorry I'll try better :)

[Neige]

You're far from the worst, nikki!!! ;)

I confess I should go do some work outside. It's so cold though... <<<brrrrrrrrr>>>

[Lord Snow]

Yes, but it would give someone a really good reason to warm you up.

[Neige]

I confess that it really didn't take long to warm up when I started digging up my garden!!!

[nikki1979]

i confess i spent far to much money on my shopping spree today!!! but am very proud i didnt break out the credit even once!!!!!!!!!

[Noah]

I confess i really hate the cold and its only just starting here!

Makes me want to jump on me Ark and head North for the winter

[Oldfart]

Yup, it's nice and warm here.

[dicksbro]

I confess, it's been cool here, too ... but the rest of this week is looking pretty good. In fact, next Sunday is suppose to reach 89F. That's getting too warm for this time of the year.

[Lilith]

I confess that I completed not only my Autism Endorsement during this school year but today I finished my Reading Endorsement as well. All this while taking another 3 hours from another uni. Quite frankly I rocked it!

[Oldfart]

Well done.

You can tell us the dirty details in Vegas.

[PantyFanatic]

That's good Lil. :thumbs:

You are great and should keep busy. Everything is going great here and you don't have to worry about anything. :D

[dicksbro]

Good for you, Lil! Ya' done good!! ;)

[Lilith]

Thanks naughty boys!

BTW dicksbro, my kiddo I've been worried about got to come home Sunday!!!

[dicksbro]

Thank heavens, Lil! That's wonderful news and I'll pass it on to the Mrs. I know she'll be thrilled as will the kids at school! :thumbs:

[Neige]

I confess that I'm having the time of my life digging my garden!!! Poor Wilderness only wants to help because he says I embarrass him in front of the neighbours, doing it all by myself, :rofl:

[Aqua]

I confess that I completed not only my Autism Endorsement during this school year but today I finished my Reading Endorsement as well. All this while taking another 3 hours from another uni. Quite frankly I rocked it!
Of course you did! ;)

Congrats!

[nikki1979]

i confess , im lieing here naked on my bed , wishing someone wud climb through my window and ravage me

[Oldfart]

Distance, the final frontier.

[PantyFanatic]

I confess I lost the pub trivia contest last night by 1 point. Damn!!! :mad:

The last question was, "Where do women have the curliest hair?" :confused:



.......apparently the correct answer is Fiji :rolleyes2

[Neige]

I confess I lost the pub trivia contest last night by 1 point. Damn!!! :mad:

The last question was, "Where do women have the curliest hair?" :confused:



.......apparently the correct answer is Fiji :rolleyes2

I confess that that^^^ just made me burst out laughing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Oldfart]

The last question was, "Where do women have the curliest hair?" :confused:



.......apparently the correct answer is Fiji :rolleyes2

It sure as eggs wasn't Brazil.

[Neige]

I confess that I broke my vibrator tonight. :o

Luckily Wilderness has today and tomorrow off, that we can go visit the adult store! :D

[Lord Snow]

I confess it's been one hell of a week and my head is still going in circles. I miss my bubble.

[nwnnguy]

I confess that I really enjoy having my wife's friend stay with us. Not only because I would love to :sex: her, but also because it nice to have another female lounging around the house.

[dicksbro]

I confess, I hope where I go for walks dried out a bit yesterday.

[Neige]

I confess that it feels like Saturday. Not that there's anything wrong with that, mind you!

[Aqua]

I confess I stayed up waaaaay too late last night. But I had fun!

[PantyFanatic]

I confess I'm way more tired than I should be this week, but ask me about intelligent actuators now. :D

[Oldfart]

Do intelligent actuators know the Capital of Sierra Leone?

[Scarecrow]

or even the Capital of Ohio?

[PantyFanatic]

What sequence do you want them to go there? ;)

[Oldfart]

Are Intelligent Actuators part of the evolution debate?

[Oldfart]

or even the Capital of Ohio?

O?

[PantyFanatic]

Are Intelligent Actuators part of the evolution debate?
Maybe more than we think now. ;)

[nikki1979]

i confess.....i wanna have a lazy day on my day off, but as ive already steam mopped the floors and its not even 9 yet, i doubt that will happen .....

[Lord Snow]

I confess I was going to go to the gym sometime today, but seeing as how my foot still hurts from work yesterday..........looks like that's out of the question.

[nikki1979]

i confess i shopped with a friend today!!

[Neige]

I confess I nearly burst into tears today at the wheel of my car... I'm having so much trouble learning to drive standard!!!!!!!! :boohoo:

[Lord Snow]

Funny, I figured such a lovely lady would know how to handle a stick by now. I'm sure you've had lots of...........oh wait, you meant an actual car.......

[Neige]

:p

I learned on automatic cars, and I've always had automatic cars to drive til now... But now I've got the cutest (standard!) car and I can't get it into first gear 2/3 of the time!!!

[PantyFanatic]

Is it a 3, 4 or 5 speed and is the stick on the floor or tree hun?

[Neige]

It's a 5 speed. What do you mean, tree? The shift is in the console between the seats.

[PantyFanatic]

Some cars (this is a car, right?) had them mounted on the right side of the steering column.

Don't let it bug you. Think of the millions of idiots that have driven stick shift over the years. We certainly know it is something you'll do as soon as you get the 'feel'. It is just a case of getting the 'knack', then it will become subconscious. That may easily be part of the issue now for you. You're trying too hard.

Are you having trouble finding neutral, or getting into 1st gear? If you are getting a lot of grinding it is most likely you're just not pressing the clutch completely in. That's the most common problem in the beginning.

You'll have it mastered in no time and wonder why it was ever an issue. Trust me. :nod:

[Oldfart]

Is the problem when you are taking off from rest, or is this when you are coming to a halt (as at traffic lights)? As PF says, it's simply a matter of practice and perseverence.

[Booger]

Is it a 3, 4 or 5 speed and is the stick on the floor or tree hun?



LOL PF you are showing your age I don't think they have built anything with 3 on the tree since the mid 70's.

That was the last time he had a valid license. You know they take your license away when you get too old to drive.

Yeah it's a car - that's what I thought you meant by tree, but I asked Wilderness who is handy with cars and he had no clue so I figured I was safer asking! :p

The problem is taking off from rest. Once I get going, I'm fine until I've stopped again! I spent a while in the deserted industrial park today just stopping and trying to start, but I didn't seem to be improving. :(

And Booger, my car is an '88 - not mid-70's, sure, but nearly as old as me!!!

I confess that it's been a while since I thought of manual transmissions, Mrs Oldfart only drives automatic cars and I can drive both, so we have autos.

The tree is the steering wheel post, but ignore that because you have a five on the floor.

In a car that old, there could be a number of underlying problems. Do any "manual" drivers have a problem with the car?

[Neige]

Yeah, it's not the perfect car to learn on... Wilderness's dad is a bit of a mechanic and he has no problem driving it, nor does Wilderness, but they've said that it's because they've both driven such a wide variety of cars that they're fine with it. Wild's dad likes making jokes on how my driving isn't helping the problems the car has. :p

I confess i hold a manual/auto licence.....but i havent driven a manual since i passed my driving test *L*
I learnt to drive in a valiant tree manual, i hated the damn tank, it was huge and not good to turn around in tight spots *L* Bilbo was not good to learn from lol (sorry hun)...so i ended up going through a driving school, they had a smaller easier manual to drive

My first car was a stick on floor. Easiest way I learned to take off was I'd go ahead and push the clutch all the way in, keep the engine revving and let up as slowly as possible. Not the best for the car, but it'll help you learn where the clutch starts to catch and how much gas to get it. Don't worry about red line or anything like that. It sounds like you're just having trouble controlling both feet at once.

[Neige]

Yeah, I do think that my problem is I'm letting up the clutch too quick.

[PantyFanatic]

If when you let up you get a lurch and then stall, that's it. As OF said, just keep doing it and the feel for how slow to leave off the clutch and how much accelerator to apply will become a natural non-thought. :thumb:

[Oldfart]

I confess that I thought that "If when you let up you get a lurch and then stall, " was the morning after the night before.

[PantyFanatic]

I confess I thought Lurch was your butler.

[Lord Snow]

That would make him Gomez, and I guess you would Herman right PF?

[Oldfart]

Naaah! Herman is a Munster, not a panty-ster.
