I am awaiting approval from Ely to upload a story. In the meanwhile, one of my cousins got a new car. According to her daughter, it is a huge improvement over the "stinky van".
At any rate, I sent her this old story from way back when ( 2007) , and am actually going to post another oldie, in a moment. :
This story was related to me by Ms. Esther (my eldest) over coffee with Louise. Not the Louise in the story.
Esther kindly decided to take her brother out driving on real-live roads (unlike the empty parking lots we let him practice on before he got his learner’s permit.)
Backing out of the driveway proved to be slightly harrowing with Ms. Esther shouting “Brake, Brake!” So that Aaron didn’t plow into our across the street neighbor, Louise, who was on her lawn.
Aaron, whose parking lot practicing really had been going smoothly, in case you were thinking otherwise, managed to back himself into the ditch.
Fortunately, Esther was able to get him out of the ditch…
Aaron, meanwhile, was yelling at the car.
Esther said, “ Stop yelling! The car has feelings!”
Aaron, being Aaron, started apologizing to the car. “Sorry car!”
But Esther, who is my only child with “normal “ hearing, thought hat he had said,”Sorry, Carlo!”
So Esther responded, “Yeah, stop yelling at Carlo!”
Without any hesitation, Aaron comes back with, “ Oh? It’s Carlo now? Got a transmission change?”
