...My Old Car

05 June 2003

Hey make an offer on it now before it is gone – Park Place Ltd., Sales Department. I love this car, rides like a dream, but ultimately, it just wasn’t me.

To wit: Last year at Halloween, I was at Home Depot picking up some 10’ lengths of PVC pipe, for my floating lantern project. So there I am in the parking lot, running 10’ lengths of PVC pipe from the front passenger foot well out the left rear window. This made the Jag look really classy.

A guy walks by with his wife, observes my loading, notes the Ohio State alum sticker in my window, and says sotto voce to his wife: “Isn’t that just like a guy from Ohio. He buys the nicest car he can buy, and then he loads it up with lumber.”

Made my day!
