[Greg Kulp]

I've gotten the usual "nice car", "cool car", etc. But last Sunday I got something a bit different...

I had the ERA FIA parked outside a local country/general store. I always stop in Sunday morning to pick up the Sunday papers, and then head back home.

I was standing at the register waiting to pay for my papers when a young lady bursts through the front doors. I notice her, nice girl but... how can I say... a bit "unsophisticated." The best way to describe her would be a hardworking country farm girl, nothing wrong with that... Anyway, she sees me and makes a beeline for me. As she is walking up the aisle she says to me "Is that your car out there?" I reply, "Yes it is." She says.. "That's freakin (cleaned up) awesome!" (very excited). I say, "Thanks." She quickly replies, "Do you want an ovary for it?" Well at that point I didn't know what to say, and she pretty quickly realizes what she just said may have been a bit over the top. Anyway, she then goes on to explain her Dad is a real Ford fan and she would love it if I would cruise by her families place and give her Dad a few blips on the throttle.

All in all, one of my more interesting encounters.
