A while back I reported the Muffler Man on Wabash Avenue here in Springfield. Last time I drove by him, he had miraculously become Muffler Man the White. Yes, now he sports white raiments and a white beard. I assume, like the wizard Gandalf in the Lord of the Rings, he has undergone a transfiguration into a higher, purer state of existence.
