Got a license for that truck?
I stopped at the local convenience store on my way to work today for my regular dose of caffeine. I love the people who work at convenience stores. They’re truly the salt of the earth. They have no job security, and definitely no dental insurance, yet they smile that lovely toothless smile every time they see you. I actually served three months in a Seven Eleven store right before grad school. It was a marvelous experience.
Anyhow, Thelma was at the register this morning all bright eyed as usual since she probably got up a 2 a.m. The guy ahead of me in line had just put $57 worth of petroleum into the biggest SUV I’ve ever seen. Thelma, being the connoisseur of man toys that she is, asked the well dressed man:
“You got an 8-cylinder in that thing?”
“Huh?”
“Your engine, is it an 8-cylinder?”
“Wa.., It’s real big.”
You go get ‘em Thelma. You beautiful thing, you.

Nice. The guy probably has stood in front of a mirror:
note to self... whenever you get stuck, remember, just say, "it's real big."
I hate people who don't use their vehicles appropriately - if you have a sports car, drive fast! If you have a pickup, haul stuff around! If you have an SUV...okay there's no reason to have an SUV other than to compensate for size deficiencies elsewhere. If you have one, at the very least know something about it.
