jab

we went to a place called Kellers for lunch today, which is kind of like Sonic but low tech. a big parking lot and no intercoms. they supposedly have a drive thru also and will sell you open beers before sending you on your way. i don't know how that's legal, but they're working it.

i had no lighter today, so after we ate i left the restaurant (the car) to bum a light from someone in the parking lot. there was a leathery old man and his wife in a truck close by, so i asked him if he had a light. he gave me a harsh "no" like he was disgusted, and wouldn't look at me. whatever. i turn around and leave and he pipes up with "nope! don't smoke! never have and don't plan on it!"

i got a light a few cars over so when i walked back past old man i held my smoke up for him and gave a big smile and a nod. i couldn't hear him, but he was seriously going off in there. mouth moving, head moving, totally mad.

greatness.
