New Question

[NancysToy]

Yesterday we took a ride about 70 miles to visit Nancy's family. The were not aware she had the Spyder, but actually were not too surprised, given our penchant for toys, and her love of the unusual. (Explains why she married me, eh?) When we were stopped at her sister's hair salon, the usual crowd gathered, and started asking the usual questions. One older fellow stayed after the others, asking more questions, and looking over the Spyder. Finally, he says, "I do have one more question. Whatever possesses a person to buy something like this?" I cracked up! That was a new one on me.

Right up there with the "that's (pause) certainly different" comments. Fall back into line, sheep!

This guy was very polite, and said it with a smile on his face. Old guy, retired minister. I'm sure he meant no malice. It really was funny, rather than irking me. Guess you had to be there.

Ha!

I chose to laugh the other day when several folks at the ga$ $tation were asking the usual questions, when one fellow in a very accusing tone, said, "But you know you can't register those to drive on the road!"

Like you, Scotty, I chose to smile. I just said, "You can come check my plate, if you like."

He remained unconvinced... :

I tell people I like my skin on my body and not the road.

When I get too many people asking the really weird stupid questions. I tell them it's an Experimental Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicle (which you all know are silent when running) When they all say wow, really I fire up the Micron, smile and drive off.
