This is a re-post to quickly give to newer readers a much better understanding as to just how much of a nut case this Russ Towne fellow really is!
The experience below may have been the most embarrassing day of my life–and considering how many such moments I’ve had, that is really saying something!
Many years ago I’d volunteered to take a car load of stuff that my employer needed for the booth of a job fair to our area’s convention center. When I arrived I noticed with frustration that the road leading to the dock was long and narrow, and that there was an even longer queue of drivers waiting to unload their vehicles one by one as each eventually became the first in line at the single unloading point.
When I saw the line, I looked at my watch and sighed. Based on how slowly the line seemed to be moving I estimated that if I was lucky I’d probably just barely be able to unload, park my car, and get the booth set up in time…

LOL! 😀
I can laugh about it now, but I think laughter was the furthest thing from my mind that day. ;-D! Thank you, ELANA! I apologize for accidentally calling you by an incorrect name a few minutes ago!
Russ

Cheers,
Ela

Funny now, I would have pannicked….. but then I wouldn’t have left the key inside, I am always worried someone would drive off with my car if I did. I bet you never did that again! LOL You live and learn……. and you do have a wonderful wife!
You’re right on both counts, Ute. I never again locked my keys in the car and I do have a wonderful wife!
Russ
Never again locked your keys in your car? Ah, if only Bob & I could learn our lessons that quickly. Sorry to say, we don’t seem to have that knack! Thanks for the chuckle! 🙂
LOL! Some lessons–like a cat who jumps on a hot stove–only need to be learned once. A cat will never again jump on a hot stove–or a cold one either. Hat tip to Mark Twain for that observation, though he most likely said it much better.
