Looks like something Moto Guzzi made during the war.


"Goose" probably tries something like that too, but this is French, and the French at that time were known to be great tinkerers, with results to match.

Nah. Duc is sleeping in the basement storage room.

With the rest of his dreams.

No steering unless that rowboat has a bow thruster.

That boat is a high technology marvel incorporating 'eyeball sensormatic rotational assist'. Where

Sometimes the sign gets torn away.
