Watch what you say ?

Here at the car wash we enthusiastically greet our customers,

Yesterday Brian didn’t quite finish his greeting as he turned to walk back to the cash register…

Brian rang up the customers request then asked “do you have your green card?”

The customer responded quite puzzled “you have to show your I’d to get a wash?”
We have colored punch cards for different washes,  the wash the customer asked for, that card is green.

A Message from Alex

AN ACTUAL CRAIG’S LIST PERSONALS AD

To the Guy Who Tried to Mug Me in Downtown  Savannah  night before last.

Date: 2009-05-27, 1 :43 a.m. E.S.T.

I was the guy wearing the black Burberry jacket that you demanded that I hand over, shortly after you pulled the knife on me and my girlfriend, threatening our lives. You also asked for my girlfriend’s purse and earrings. I can only hope that you somehow come across this rather important message.

First, I’d like to apologize for your embarrassment; I didn’t expect you to actually mess your pants when I drew my pistol after you took my jacket.. The even ing was not that cold, and I was wearing the jacket for a reason.. My girlfriend had just bought me that Kimber Model 1911 .45 ACP pistol for my birthday, and we had picked up a shoulder holster for it that very evening. Obviously you agree that it is a very intimidating weapon when pointed at your head … isn’t it?!

I know it probably wasn’t fun walking back to wherever you’d come from with that brown sludge in your pants. I’m sure it was even worse walking bare-footed since I made you leave your shoes, cell phone, and wallet with me. [That prevented you from calling or running to your buddies to come help mug us again].

After I called your mother or “Momma” as you had her listed in your cell, I explained the entire episode of what you’d done. Then I went and filled up my gas tank as well as those of four other people in the gas station, — on your credit card. The guy with the big motor home took 150 gallons and was extremely grateful!

I gave your shoes to a homeless guy outside Vinnie Van Go Go’s, along with all the cash in your wallet. [That made his day!]

I then threw your wallet into the big pink “pimp mobile” that was parked at the curb …. after I broke the windshield and side window and keyed the entire driver’s side of the car.

Later, I called a bunch of phone sex numbers from your cell phone. Ma Bell just now shut down the line, although I only used the phone for a little over a day now, so what ‘s going on with that? Earlier, I managed to get in two threatening phone calls to the DA’s office and one to the FBI, while mentioning President Obama as my possible target.

The FBI guy seemed really intense and we had a nice long chat (I guess while he traced your number etc.).

;In a way, perhaps I should apologize for not killing you … but I feel this type of retribution is a far more appropriate punishment for your threatened crime. I wish you well as you try to sort through some of these rather immediate pressing issues, and can only hope that you have the opportunity to reflect upon, and perhaps reconsider, the career path you’ve chosen to pursue in life.. Remember, next time you might not be so lucky.Have a good day!

Thoughtfully yours,

Alex

Barb’s flat tire

My name is Barb,

I bought an SRT Challenger last month, in red of course.

I had a flat tire on the interstate 5, so I eased my car over to the shoulder of the road, carefully got out of the car and opened the trunk.

I took out 2 cardboard men, unfolded them and stood them at the rear of my car facing oncoming traffic. They look so life like you wouldn’t believe it! They are in trench coats exposing their nude bodies to the approaching drivers.

To my surprise, cars start slowing down looking at my lifelike men which made it safer for me to work at the side of the road.  And of course, traffic starts backing up.
Everybody is tooting their horns and waving like crazy.

It wasn’t long before a state trooper pulls up behind me. He gets out of his car and starts walking towards me. I could tell he was not a happy camper!

‘What’s going on here?’

‘My car has a flat tire’,  I said calmly.

‘Well, what are those obscene cardboard men doing here by the road?’

I couldn’t believe that he didn’t know…

So I told him, ‘Helloooooo… those are my Emergency Flashers.’

Just a Sunday Drive……

[]
Billy Graham was returning to Charlotte after a speaking engagement and when his Plane arrived there was a limousine there to transport him to his home.

As he prepared to get into the limo, he stopped and spoke to the driver.

‘You know’ he said, ‘I am 87 years old and I have never
Driven a limousine. Would you mind if I drove it for a while?’
The driver said,
‘No problem. Have at it.’
Billy gets into the driver’s seat and they head off
Down the highway.
A short distance away

Sat a rookie State Trooper operating his first speed trap.
The long black limo went by him doing 70 in a 55 mph zone.
The trooper pulled out
And easily caught the limo
And he got out of his patrol car to begin the procedure.
The young trooper walked up to the driver’s door
And when the glass
Was rolled down,

He was surprised to see
Who was driving.
He immediately excused himself and went back to hiscar
And called his supervisor.
He told the supervisor, 
‘I know we are supposed
To enforce the law…..
But I also know that

Important people are
Given certain courtesies.
I need to know what

I should do because
I have stopped a
Very important person.’
The supervisor asked,
‘Is it the governor?’
The young trooper said,
‘No, he’s more important
Than that.’

The supervisor said,
‘Oh, so it’s the president.’


The young trooper said,
‘No, he’s even more
Important than that.’
The supervisor finally asked,
‘Well then, who is it?’
The young trooper said,

‘I think it’s Jesus,
Because he’s got Billy Graham for a chauffeur!’
Smile – God loves you! I ask the Lord to bless you, as I pray for you today;
To guide you and protect you, as you go along your way
God’s love is always with you, God’s promises are true.
And when you give God all your cares, you know God will see you through

Which motor for my 36 Business coupe?

With gas prices as they are and the technology in 4 cylinders like the SRT4 I’m really having a hard time deciding which motor combo to put in my coupe. I like the idea of a 2.2 or 2.4 turbo set up for overall gas savings but I’m afraid that everyone will expect a V8 sound when the rig idles up. I don’t really want to install a mega horse power motor that only gets 5-8 mpg and can fry rubber for blocks — as cool as that is. My plan is to only keep the Coupe for a year or so and then sell it to fund another project so I would like your opinion on which motor would be best for the coupe.

COOL TRUCK PROJECT


Driving through a neighborhood to pick up my girls I came upon this Jeep truck. The owner only has a limited time left on earth and is selling his project for $1100. He bought it a few years ago as a 1951 but believes it is acutally a ’50. Currently most of the equipment is there but you will need to make an appointment with Gary Lewis to have him media and sand blast it. It appears that the original 4×4 system is intact but there is a 327 bowtie with out a carb installed. He hasn’t started it but was told it ran good—

Let me know if your interested.
