Well, it had to happen sometime I guess, but here goes:
Thursday Night on my way home 4/7/05 on S. Main next to Dunks at the corner of Bridge and S. Main I pull up to a light.
Here I am kickin' back, just drove all the way home from work in Concord down 3A at a good pace, listening to tunes and have the windows open a bit as well as my moonroof
Out of my left ear I hear "NICE CAR!" I rolled my window down a bit more and turned down the stereo a bit to hear - I said "Thank you"
Kid in the driver's seat - couldn't have been more than 17 then proceeded to say "Too bad mines faster" : Let me explain - early to mid Honda civic 4 dr sedan - sand brown with a crunched psgr turn signal area with a clear corner marker light stuffed into it.
Me: "What do you have in it?"
Doofus: and for this you have to get the effect of the kids eyes bulging out of their sockets and him leaning toward me with that "look" "TWO POINT FOUR!...TURBO!"
ME: Oh, what's the psi?
Doofus: "I don't know, my dad did it"
ME: I gave a giggle and said, "well you know, it's not what's in the car all the time..you gotta know how to handle your car too."
Doofus: "I know how to handle MY stick baby."
I almost lost it at this point laughing my ass off...
ME: "Well darlin' so do I"
Doofus: "My car is still faster than yours"
ME: "Well, I can meet you at the track this summer and we can test that theory and I have a 600+ HP Chevy that says your car isn't faster."
The light then changed, he tromped on it (btw - no blow off heared, nor was there any spooling sound of a turbo)
I just got on it a bit and knew right away he was all talk.
I felt bad for his buddy sitting in the psgr seat!

Mr V. Top dog. Just had a mental image come back to me. Small male dog impregnated a larger female. End of process, male dog still locked in, tail to tail with his hind legs about 2 inches off the ground. He had an expression of surprise/discomfort/helplessness that I just visualised on the face of the kid in the car.
LOL.
