Have a Great Show! December 20, 2006 |
We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
Is this code for something?
It's too late, I read that as "fill up my love tire."
OH BABY
ll he ever heard when he held it to his ear wasa bunch of hot air, so he mistakenly believed he could use it to infla
We had a "Casey's" in the small Midwestern town I grew up in...and it too was a place of assignations. The tires didn't get filled right there, but certainly arrangements were made to get oil changed, with or without filter. If the oil didn't get filtered, sometimes tires became visibly over-full...about 9 mos later...
Erin is so 'old school' that she can't write notes using text message mode. The best she can swing is an occasional email shorthand like "@" for "at". Sad.
Still, she's enough of a lady that she doesn't want to dirty her hands grabbing a hose that most anybody could have handled before her, doing that pumping and filling and so on.
Is the phone being held hostage?
Casey's is a chain convenience stores. They seem to thrive in small Midwestern towns and rural farm communities. In a town I visit in IL, there are 2 Casey's, 5 bars, a dozen churches, and a funeral home...not much else.
Casey's fills the fast food niche in places where the nearest McDonald's is 30 miles away. They have pizza, which is definitely sub-par, but they make fresh donuts daily, which are YUMMY! (No these aren't the type of donuts you use when you have a flat tire either!)
Erin probably works at Casey's, and had to go in early to make the donuts. She took his cell phone, just in case she had a flat tire along the way. She want's him to meet her there later, and check out the tire. Maybe if he gets there early enough, she'll give him an apple fritter and a cup of coffee for his efforts.
The price you pay for losing your phone: Now ya gotta fill the tire. Idiot.
Baby Basil, I've heard euphemisms involving checking the oil, etc, but I've never heard a euphemism involving the oil filter. That was awesome.
Do you think Erin is still waiting @ Casey's?
@ Hiplainsdrifter ... well, you can call her and find out. She's got the phone, after all.
Actually I am. Thanks for asking. Now come fill my ******* tire or the phone gets it.
come here or the ceramic cats AND your phone get it!
I feel so comforted when I come to the comments that I am not the only person who thought something dirty when read "fill my tire"...Dirty thinkers unite!!!
This is so nice. I am at work and now I want to go home. Very personal memo. I love it!
Don't forget to pump my gasoline.
Librarian beat me to it: Wondering the same about the phone being held hostage.
Need a dipstick to check to oil. At least that is the way it works for me :)
Betty was in love with Daryn, but he didn't like her. The only solution she could think of was stealing his phone (so he had to come) and then asking him to fill her tire. When he found the note, he freaked out, threw it on the ground, and raced to Casey's to fill the tire. Once he'd done so, he received his phone. Incidentally, he moved to Nepal not long afterward.
Figwiggin is right. It's too late to forget about the term "Love Tyre". Nope, can't stuff that genie back in its bottle.
I'd fill up Erin's tire for sure. And her love tire as well. If that's the deal I'm getting, I wouldn't even want my phone back! You can keep it for that price!
I wish someone would fill up my tire..
They only have one tire. Must be a unicycle rider.
Also, must the tire filling be done with one's mouth or with a pump (this keeps getting rauchier)?
Con Brio said ceramic cats! (chug chug)
