This IS a groaner's thread. At the same time, it's a legit question. There was such a thing, I just don't remember the particulars.

Yeah...start car, engine explodes. Oops--li'l too much octane there, Bubba! Wasn't that an old name for the high-octane or racing fuel?

 

My daddy always called premium gasoline "high-test." We always got the regular stuff for our Studebaker.

Speaking of testes, whatever became of the little balls that used to swirl around in the bubble on the gas pump? Don't little balls purify the high test?

 

If this is a test, where are the questions?

 

Takes a great deal of testicular fortitude to post a groaner like that, Gary!

 

"Test. This is ony a test. If this were a real thread, you'd be instructed to bash one of the hi-rez formats, the Harvest surround mix, the work of Peter Mew, EMI, discuss the merits of the Beatles in mono, look forward to Steve's next mastering job, worry that any Beatles in 5.1 is going to get really screwed up and they'll forget the stereo and mono mixes, sing praises for Steve's Zombies SACD work and rightfully so, laugh at the new DSOTM artwork, and be generally in awe of the music muses that have visited us these past 80 years......but this is only a test. Go back to your families. Everything's fine."

 

It is not a groaners thread...It is a TEST thread with balls...

 

my balls are hanging by a thread waiting for the next test post. My favorite synonym for test is assess. Who doesnt like assess?
