Car Talk Driving to Today's Breakfast
Glenn M.: Tom and Ray, welcome. By the way who drove today?
Tom: He did.
Ray: Neither one of us actually drove today.
Tom: That's right.
Ray: I have to tell you a story.
Tom: You can't get an answer out of my brother. He's always got to tell you a story.
Ray: It's a short story. Glenn had asked us to do this, and we agreed, but we could never agree on a date. We started this discussion about a year ago.
"How about January?" "No, it's too cold in January."
"How about March?" "No, we're going to be away in March."
“How about April?" "The solstice is coming up."
We always had an excuse.
Finally we agreed on a date, and you said, "Oh, by the way, you have to be there at 7 o'clock in the morning." "7 o'clock in the morning, are you crazy? I'll never get my brother out of the house and here and awake at 7 a.m. So I had this brilliant idea that we would sleep here. We actually have rooms here.
Glenn M: Oh, you had rooms?
Tom: And, you paid for them!
Ray: So I packed a bag. I forgot socks, but … so neither of us drove here this morning. But, I drove last night.
Glenn M: What kind of car did you drive?
Ray: Well, we get to test-drive just about all the cars that come out. So if you're interested in buying a new car...
Tom: ... we can give you one!
Ray: Like, they’ll never know. We have them for weeks at a time.
Tom: Anybody want a Ford?
Ray: It's a Ford Focus. It's a very nice little car. That's what we're driving this week.
