Gee, I haven't been in here before. Looks like kind of a nice place. I wasn't sure a place like this was a good place to be, but it's been a rough day, and I think I need a drink. I've got a sad story to tell. but first, I need a drink. Barmaid! Can I have Canadian whiskey on the rocks - make it a triple....
You see, I bought a sporty, bright red Honda, kind of a last farewell to youth (guys in their 50's do that, ya know). Well, I got it just two months ago, and it got its first dent yesterday. My friend Claudia ran into it.....
with her autoharp.

Yeah, with her autoharp.
She had it in her hand when she was getting out of the car, and she got animated about something and turned around and....KLUNK! I wondered last night if she might have dented it, but I dismissed the idea. Well, I saw the car in the daylight today, and there it is. It's a little dent, but the first one is always a killer.
Oh, well. I told her she's allowed one dent. Next time, I get upset. she was appropriately apologetic, so I guess I'll be able to live with the dent. Still, it's hard on a guy at the ripe old age of 51.
Barmaid! How's 'bout another triple?
