Sorry for this, a take on the Esure adverts. However the "very good driver" should link to something. Not sure what.

I thought the "I Know" link is pretty much a good link, since it fits into verifiability.

Sorry for this, a take on the Esure adverts. However the "very good driver" should link to something. Not sure what.
Or maybe it could be reworded. The original known catchphrase is "Calm down dear, it's only a commercial. I'm really a very good driver", or "Calm down dear, its only a commercial".

Well, you know when someone asks you, "do you think____?" And then the person responds, "I don't think, I know." That's pretty much where I got it from. I thought the "I Know" link is pretty much a good link, since it fits into verifiability. Same goes for "I don't think"; We are not a crystal ball, or Original Research. -- Tohru Honda 13 Sign here! 07:00, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
