Couldn't get to work...

Oh, yeah... got up at five AM and the snow was still falling... My TransAm gets out in this mess and dives into the nearest culvert... I guess it doesn't want to run up a big towing bill...

"If you don't mind sir, I will just slip into this ditch right here. Yes, the one beside the driveway. Oh, and by the way, why don't you call the wrecker before you start the car so we waste as little time as possible."

and there was no way I was gonna have Rita spend three to five hours on the road getting me to and from work... on slick roads... with idiots in four wheel drive trucks speeding around...

"Hey, Bubba, hold my beer and watch this. I got four wheel drive! Look at me go! Right into the ditch! Get the jaws of life!"

It is almost funny to have some dolt go zipping by on the interstate, splashing slush all up on me, then to come to the next overpass and see that same jerk in the ditch because he forgot that four wheel drive don't mean shit on four inches of ice.

Man, ain't it the truth? I've got more control in my '94 Escort than your average moron in a brand-new Navigator does. . .and I've seen the proof with all four of my eyes. Hallelujah. Or "heh" may be more appropriate.
