Mary Henley Rubio Quotes

Ewan Was Maladroit When It Came To Anything Practical Or Mechanical. Still, He Learned How To Crank The Car To Start It, Then Hustle Back To The Driver's Seat Very Quickly To Keep The Motor From Dying. His Family Grew Accustomed To Lurches When He Tried To Get The Car Moving Forward Without Killing The Motor. Like Many Other Drivers At That Time, He Had Trouble Remembering That The Car Was Not A Horse, And If He Needed To Stop Quickly, His First Impulse Was Always To Yank Backwards On The Steering Wheel, As If He Were Holding The Horse's Reins, And Yell "Whoa! Whoa!" Some Found This Endearing, Others Found It Funny, But His Young Sons Found It Very Embarrassing.
