A customer purchased a new Ferrari sports car, and loved every bit of it...except for the clutch. He asked for a meeting with Papa Enzo Ferrari, and after numerous attempts, was granted an audience. They proceeded to have a very animated discussion about the clutch, which Enzo finally concluded by saying "the problem isn't the clutch, the problem is the driver."
Who was the unhappy customer -- and what did he do next?
Easy, peasey! But I thought it was, "Stick to making tractors and let me make sportscars", or words to that effect. The target? Ferruccio Lamborghini, of course.
In 1938 Neville Chamberlain declared "Peace in our time", Superman first appeared in Action Comics, Seabiscuit beat War Admiral ....... and C.a.l last won the Rose Bowl.
