Beep Beep III:

The continuing saga of "Darth."


So I’m sittin at my computer last night and half listening to one of CNNs squawking heads at the same time. And he’s goin on and on about how the worlds coming to an end in Texas. They’ve got about a million poor souls on the road and heading north from Galveston, Houston and a whole bunch of smaller towns. It sounded so scary I quit my POGO game and went to the other room to watch. There it was. What a traffic jam. Holy (Bleep), a hundred mile backup. Wow!

The shock of seeing all those cars stuck in that traffic suddenly reminded me of one thing. Darths wheels needed balancing "AGAIN". Next morning I cruise over to the Dodge dealership. Not really looking forward to another one-sided discussion with one of their supreme "Service Specialists." I’d love to know where they dig up these tittles.

Service Specialist: Good morning. What’s your problem?

Iceman: Darths wheels are wobbling.

Service Specialist: Wobbling? Last time you said they were wiggling. Which is it?

Iceman: What the (Bleeps) the difference? Their out of balance.

Service Specialist: Now their out of balance! Our Specialist fixed that last time!

Iceman: And? I’m back again. What does that tell you?

Service Specialist: Well, for one thing it tells me your a whiner & complainer. About when do they wiggle, wobble or whatever!?

Iceman: 75 & 80.

Service Specialist: Excuse ME? You do know the limit is 65?

Iceman: Yea. I guess that’s why the speedometer goes to 160.

Are you going to fix the (Bleeping) thing or not?

Service Specialist: I guess we’ll have to. We aim to please. You gonna wait for it?

Iceman: Yea, unless you have a loaner.

Service Specialist: Your kiddin right?

Iceman: No. I just thought having to bring back Darth three times in two months for the same problem you just might ....................

Service Specialist: LOL. Oh my God, where the hell you been for the last ten years? Sit down, shut the (Bleep) up and don’t talk to any of the other suckers in the waiting room.

Iceman: Do you have any of those "Customer Satisfaction" forms handy?
