Hint: somebody we know and like.

While visiting my friend in the Islands, we drove my car to the mart to get me some Jiff (peanut butter).

Haha, Paperino ... traffic jammer!

These election results are all lies! Let's recount!

Still clueless on the other two, though.

Just popped in,

Without double checking the dot is looking like "a decimal point".

I'll have a look at the autistic one now.




Good work with these Jammer.

My missus got decimal point right off. I had point, but could not unscramble decimal. What a "doh" moment when she showed me.
Got the voting one.
The autistic one is a bugger.

Stick with it Paperino ... you'll get it!

I saw Ducati in this, and then made timorous from what remained. Timorous could be somewhat synonymous with autistic. So we have a timorous Ducati who could be an autistic Italian mechanic. (Which of the three brothers it is, I don't know). How about a hint? Is one of these words slang? Do we see it here at MV? I'm totally buggered by this one. Someone solve this thing!

Autistic is a red herring. It is the name of a Ducati model ... but the word "Italian" was indeed a clue.

timorous Ducati can't be it, because the solution calls for a 6-letter, then an 8-letter work.
Still thinking on it, though.

I'm fried. I probably went too Italian this time.

The latest mod makes our scoot look like it suffers from Ducati Tumorosi (tumor/growth). An infectious disease spread by Italian mechanics to more traditional looking scooters, like our Vespas, that makes a scooter look more like a crotch rocket.

(I'm about to cry uncle.)

See how the disease progresses.

Mea Culpa Paperino and anyone else who didn't get this last one. I duplicated a spelling error found on a vintage motorcycle website!!!

It was supposed to be a Ducati "Turismo" rather than "Tourismo".

A thousand pardons!!!

I'll do better next time!

Aha, honestly, I did have "tourismo" but knew I had to lose the "o". Thanks for the mental gymnastics! It's been fun. Throw out a couple more next Saturday. For now, I need a rest
