[DML] Re: Funniest Things Heard

["cruznmd" <racuti1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I live in Maryland, work in DC at the Department of State, and soon 
the Pentagon. In such an urban area unfortunately, the only attention 
I ever get is....well let's just say these people are in the "lower 
income brackets"....

They only ask: "Is it fast?" No.
"Are you selling it?" No.
"Why not?" Because I like it.

That's about all I'm ever asked. I usually point out to these people 
that if they're driving a rusted out K-car and they are missing 
teeth, (I'm not joking) they probably couldn't afford my DeLorean 
anyway. When they insist, I name a starting price of $30,000 with an 
offer to throw in the keys for free.

The closest thing to "funny" that I ever hear is from parts-house 
employees trying to tell me who made it, what kind of engine it has, 
how many were made..(The locksmith told me only 3 DeLoreans were ever 
made and that I was a liar)..and NO, I don't make a habit of buying 
parts from non-vendors.
