    Real Life sometimes interferes??
    But, Not for long!!!

    So I finally landed a job as a Wal-Mart greeter, which is a good find for many retirees, unfortunately I lasted less than a day.
    About two hours into my first d...ay on the job a very loud, unattractive, mean-acting woman walked into the store with her two kids, yelling obscenities at them all the way through the entrance. Per my greeter training manual I said pleasantly, “Good morning and welcome to Wal-Mart.” “Nice children you have there. Are they twins?”
    The ugly woman stopped yelling long enough to say, “Hell no, they ain’t twins. The oldest one is 9, and the other one is 7. Why the hell would you think they’re twins? Are you blind, or just stupid?”
    So I replied, “I’m neither blind nor stupid, madam. I just couldn’t believe someone slept with you twice. Have a good day and thank you for shopping at Wal-Mart.”
    My supervisor said I probably wasn’t cut out for this line of work.

    Keep coming back!!!

    That reminds me of that Jeff Foxworthy bit about spotting the hairy woman with kids: "Oh my God! Someone slept with that woman! Oh wait, it's only Aunt Bea!" Or something to that effect....

    Congrats on your new job, Dennis!!! Being a Walmart greeter is nothing to be ashamed of.

    I was wondering about that too Andy. I don't like having to correct a stupid machine's idea of what word I meant to use. Anyway, hijacking the thread again I see Dan the ranchero Man represented us nicely at the Fairlane National Meet this year. Hard to hide a red mercury Ranchero even in a crowd. Dan is on the fifth row left side. Maybe I'll get to go to the next National.

    The guy that wrote the Auto Mistake program obviously has a sense of humor. A very, very sick one.

    That MerChero would look good if there was a pic of it from the FRONT! And not from 800 feet altitude.

    thats an interesting double amputee and getting out of that F1 Formula ride in this dimension looks awkward.

    It's idiotic. So, you climb up, get in the cockpit, shut the canopy,...then what? It falls over onto the wheels and you drive while laying on your side? Please.

    What is the advantage of a side-mounted cockpit on a race car, assuming it wasn't specifically built for oval tracks? Answer me that, Batman.

    Cockpit rotates to compensate for "G" forces. Enlarge the pic and you can read the decal. No worse than taking a pic of that Ford GT hung on the wall in the Glass House. Desert Toy 2.jpg Desert Toy 2.jpg Desert Toy 2.jpg

    Good point ! Can't see it being practical for anything but roundy-roundy. I doubt any of us could fold up enough to get in it anyway so unless you're Mark Martin it's a moot point.
