My all time favorite :
"A career? I've thought about this quite a bit sir and I would have to say considering what's waiting out there for me, I don't want to sell anything, buy anything or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed or buy anything sold or processed or repair anything sold, bought or processed as a career. I don't want to do that. My father's in the army. He wants me to join, but I can't work for that corporation, so what I've been doing lately is kick-boxing, which is a new sport...as far as career longevity, I don't really know. I can't figure it all out tonight, sir, so I'm just gonna hang with your daughter." |

"I flunk English, I'm outta here. I gotta get a job, and you know what that means. That's right, they start me at the drive-up window and I gradually work my way up from shakes to burgers, and then one day my lucky break comes: the french fry guy dies and they offer me the job. But the day I'm supposed to start some men come by in a black Lincoln Continental and tell me I can make a quick $300 just for driving a van back from Mexico. When I get out of jail I'm 36 years old. Living in a flop house. No job. No home. No upward mobility. Very few teeth. And then one day they find me, face down in the gutter, clutching a bottle of paint thinner and why? Because you wouldn't help me with my English homework." |
I wish I could have had a "propina" or 2 along the way. Waaay too many tickets to think about. First one I got I was hauled directly to Palos Verdes City Hall. I was 14. I 'lost' my license before i could get one. From then on, every thicket I got in So Cal included no license. Worst one was on the 405 before it was opened. There was a 6 mile stretch of 5 lanes...just screaming for me to try out a Honda 750 we had just finished souping up......went to jail on that one!!
Best one was from a bear in the air. 95 in a 55 on I-5 in WA. "Let me go" without hauling me off. For once I went to court to see if I could get it reduced. Turned out there had to be 2 affidavits; 1 from trouper on ground...had that.....and 1 from trouper in fixed wing aircraft. That one was missing and the judge asked me if I wanted to have the charges ($350!!) dropped. What a rest trip home that was! No tickets in Boxster, btw and have just under 12K mi on it. 1 warning, though!! |
