Bowie County & Arkansas

It is Sunday night … time for my usual pizza … and a frothy adult beverage!  The problem is that my supply is down to 2 bottles of Goose Island 312.  In the past … before moving to Texas … I would’ve driven to the local beverage site and purchased something new.

But Bowie County … where I reside … is a dry county!  And Arkansas … which is only about 4-5 blocks away … does not sell alcohol on Sunday.  Rats!

So … one more night of saluting my friends who live in the 312 area code.  And then on my list of things to do this next week … a trip to Arkansas!

Why the General Motors-Peugeot Partnership Bodes Well for GM

Horns will be replaced by mimes who silently act out road rage at bad drivers.

Side-view mirrors will soon say, “Objects in mirror may or may not exist.”

The new car smell will contain wafts of  stale cigarettes, pungent cheese and underarm odors.

In gratitude, Peugeot’s going to agree to build a major manufacturing plant in the U.S.,  anywhere except Waterloo, Iowa.

GM will introduce a new color for next year’s models:  Sacre´ bleu.

From here on out, passenger head-room will be referred to as beret space.

All navigations systems will be voiced by Jerry Lewis.  (Hey laaaaady!   Turn left!)

The French will teach U.S. car salesmen how to be more openly disdainful of their customers.

The tachometers built by the French will count one revolution every 200 years.

And finally, the must-have option for next year will be, what?   Buick’s new, in-dash fondue pot!
