Funny phone call I just got

**HerHotRod** · 06-28-2005, 03:16 PM

Since it's kinda slow in hear lately I thought I would share this........

So my nextel beeps and it's one of the supers from the field telling me to listen! So I listen and I hear what I think is a burnout. Not what I expect working for a home builder. He asks if I heard it and tells me he's gonna call on the phone. So he does, and when I pick up I hear this nasty sounding car in the background. He tells me its about a 65 yr old man, in like a 71 camaro, who lives next to the construction trailer out at one of our subdivisions. He said he was backing it out of the garage, back to the road, and launching it up his the approx. 100' driveway

.

So then its wait, wait, he's doing it again, and I hear this huge burnout and this car launches up the driveway again. Now he's getting an audience he says as all the guys are coming out of the trailer. Then he backs it up again and I guess lets his son take a shot at it.

So after like 3 burnouts I'm told, "just thought you would want to hear that", and he hangs up on me.

Best phone call of the day!

You might want to give gramps directions to BMP.

**HerHotRod** · 06-28-2005, 04:32 PM

Oh, I know. I think they looked at it as if something happened, he would be launching it into his own house lol.

Does he drive a Yukon?

I had something similar. One of the few nights I had my Challenger out I stopped at Wendy's drive tru. I see this guy in a Yukon in front of me in line looking out his mirrors at my car. No big deal, until he pulls away from the window, then starts backing up. He starts to back up next to my car in the drive thru. I start to think WTF is this guy doing. Now he's getting closer, and about the time I yell hey WTF are you doing, I notice he's holding a cell phone outside of his drivers window.

no he doesn't. It's just funny because I'm stuck in a office most of the time in Oldsmar and they are out in Brandon. Thats funny you say that though because I get calls telling me what their sitting next to in traffic before they go into what they are really calling for lol.

Why don't I get phone calls like that? If only he had a camera phone.

That's gonna be me in my old age. My kids and grandkids are either going to love me or hate me, I see no happy medium.
