Obviously Gramps wasn't a coffee drinker! There are two rules about driving a
stick and drinking coffee:
1) Someone will cut you off, requiring a quick downshift and forcing a spill.
2) Coffee defies all physical laws and will either;
a) Pour directly on a white shirt or your tie -or-
b) If extremely hot, it will go directly for the groin area causing extreme
discomfort and possible ejection of yourself out the window!

OK times up! My grandpa use to tell my dad that automatics were for
uncoordinated people! For those that couldn't do more than 2 things at a
time! He said that it took a talented individual to steer, brake, accelerate
and shift all at once or in conjunction! My grandpa was always right!
