K (more to himself than anything): Hmmm. I suppose I should go in on my days off and see if this key fits. Although, I just bought a truck and don't really need a new one. And I really don't think I would ever drive a Toyota. (We buy 'American' vehicles.)--He is VERY optimistic and approaches any kind of contest, lottery, raffle, sweepstakes, etc, as if he WILL be a big winner.--
Me: Well, if you won the thing, we always could sell it and use the money for something else!
K: Or we could give it to (oldest granddaughter) for her first vehicle--she will be getting her license soon.
Me: Really, I don't think THAT is a precedent I want to set. We do have SEVEN grandchildren, after all.
K: Okay, but when (second granddaughter) gets her license, we can just tell her it is hers, then, and keep going down the line.
Me: Fine, but what do we do for (last grandchild--number 7)? Give her a roll of duct tape and say 'Happy Driving'?
K: Or we could just tell her 'It's a CLASSIC!'
Yeah, the man is quick on his feet. :D

He certainly can come up with responses quickly--and the thing that kills me is he didn't even miss a beat! :D
ReplyDeletetoo funnny!
ReplyDeleteHaha! My first car was "almost" a classic. A 1988 Chevy Barretta.
ReplyDeleteAnd I've always wondered if anyone ever actually wins those contests or if none of the keys work and it's just a ploy to get people down to the dealership and possibly get sweet talked into buying a new car.
Silver: I don't ever remember hearing of anyone winning one of these things. And yes, it most definitely is a ploy to get people into the dealership where the salespeople can swoop in for the kill.
