Here, let me help you…
“désolé ma reine” …rough translation is… “Desolate Marines”
“Je suis désolé. Puis-je offrir un câlin?” …rough translation is… “Hey, Sue is desolate and Police Officers are calling”

Not sure what any of that has to do with you being stuck at work, but if I were there I’d give ya a big hug.

brilliantly devious.
 
Alloy 52 comes from Area 51.
It's the top secret plot next door that no one knows about or is to talk about if they do know. It's now only a matter of time before government guests arrive from the People's Public Knowledge Ministry.

Oh, can I have your NR, seeing you won't be needing it wherever they disappear you to? Doubt they have gigs there.

So you're saying it's unplottable? Should that be discussed where tluggles[1] can hear?

Agreed. Small engines obviously can be more powerful these days, but nothing sounds like a big throaty V8 that you can feel as well as hear.
not to derail but V8s are alive and well and available in the higher performance trims from the big three….if you recall, base model Camaro, Mustangs, Barracudas etc. came with under performing sixes back in the day….”small” is relative…an ohv engine will always be smaller than an equivalent displacement ohc type AND provides beautiful benefits such as non laminar flow through the big valves (since only 2 valves can conveniently be supported due to single cam valve train limitations) aiding in torque output at low RPMs AND overall lower center of gravity….it’s the secret weapon that allowed the vette for example to compete with exotics costing more then 10 times the vette price tag…..as they say, “ there is no replacement for displacement “…….that said…… this THUNDERBIRD loves it’s V8!…
