Hilarious. Yes, Comedy is still alive.  Unlike Common Sense, whose passing has been widely reported.  This blog entry reports the London Times obituary:

I had to do a search for this marvelous item.  I found it here:
<http://www.amazon.com/AutoExec-Wheelmate-Steering-Attachable-Surface/dp/B00E1D1GY6/ref=sr_1_1?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1449888462&sr=8-1&keywords=Wheelmate+steering+wheel+attachable+work+surface.>

I’m perversely reminded of a saying reportedly used in rural areas of our great country:

"Hold the wheel and reach me another beer while I reload."

Hear, hear! And to all a good night!
