Weight: 215
Workout: 30 Minutes Treadmill I don't like the antibiotics the dr gave me. It gives me headaches and makes me queasy. So this morning I stop to get gas and something for breakfast and lunch. I also got coffee. Came back out to the car, set the coffee on the roof to unlock the door. Fired up darth Hyundai and away I went. A half mile later I hear a thud. I look in the rear-view mirror to see my coffee fall off the roof and roll off the trunk. So then I had to stop for more coffee and a car-wash. Today is looking like it's going to be a great day!! One last story today. While waiting in line to pay at the Huck's (BTW gas there is currently 2.65) I thought I would be nice and let the nice man buying the 32oz beer go before me. I figured anyone buying beer at 6:00 AM deserves to wait a little less than the rest of us. So he gets to the register and the guy scans the beer *beeep* the nice man then says "is it OK if I'm a little short and just come back with a quarter?" The rejection was brutal and immediate. I think the guy working at the register may have actually laughed. This did not sit well with our hero! He got angry and said "Oh c'mon don't be like that!" Then he asked me if I had a quarter. I did not, but apparently that is not allowed according to the fine proprietor. Dejected, 6:00AM Beer-Man sulked back out to his car, girlfriend waiting, to search the floorboards for change. No dice. Well, that's not quite true, there were dice on the mirror just no spare change apparently. As I pulled away, our protagonist was approaching strangers and asking for change. I thought to myself: If someones life has come to the point where they are begging for money a quarter at 6:00AM so that they can buy a 32oz can of beer surely they can realize that their master plan for world domination has hit a snag. |

Sorry to hear about your coffee problems this morning. And I think you probably had 25 cents in pennies in your car.
Those pennies are an essential part of the hyundai's "sport suspension" package! By keeping strategically placing them in a central location I have lowered the center of gravity as well as increasing the gross vehicle weight. This provides superior handling in corners.
