Hello and welcome to Car Talk on National Public Radio with us clicking

Clack the Tapet Brothers and we're broadcasting this week. Believe it or not. From the

Car Talk booth at the Olympic Village here in Lilla Hammond Norway. Who is Lilla Hammond

anyway? She's like Hammond's secretary's wife, a son of mother. Mike Hammond's secretary

was Velma. Velma. Remember how many other people have you met, Velma? Never met a soul

named Velma. Anyway, it wasn't a perfect name for her. It wasn't

indeed. Velma. We're pushing a new event here at the Olympics. The Camaro Skating

event. Camaro Skating? Yes. Yes. You put a Camaro in a quarter of an inch of snow

and watched it slide. It's a freestyle event. I have a 19 year old son who was dying to

have a Camaro slash firebird. You don't want him to die so you ain't getting

wild. I keep offering him generously I think. My dodge Dakota picked up. Isn't it

interesting how tall he is? He keeps holding his nose. You're offering him free of charge.

Is anyone ever offered you free of charge? Yeah, actually someone did. How many 20 year old

kids could get a car? Well, I remember. You know, it's funny because at first I was angry

when he said he didn't want it. But then I remember that dad offered me his 60 rambler.

And I refused it. Then they're offered me diddly. Well, that's big. You know why? You ruined

one of his cars once and he never forgave me. Yeah. His 51 dodge. I ruined it. How? By

running it without oil? Oh, I remember. Get dad. Get dad on the phone. He's already called

me once to rent and rave about truck drivers. This is bad. This is going to be a hint for

the puzzler. What? This call. Okay, you got him on the phone? Hello, dad. Hey, you

just a similar argument for us. We're here doing our radio show. You may have heard of it.

Oh, dad, you got to help solve a little disagreement between my brother and me. Do you remember?
