Strange Day Today

My turn for the car story.

We had to drive down dirt roads to a town 30 minutes away to get beer and I had the parents olds 98 full of young ruffians. Well the dirt road crossed a creek and for some reason I did not slow down from the 60 mph i was traveling.

So 15 minutes later when we get to the gas station to get beer I am smelling gasoline. Sure enough I ripped a small hole in the gas tank. Well the ingeneous gas attendant told us to rub soap on it and it would plug it up.

Amazingly this works......

Until a week or so later when the family traveled to the city to go see the movies and it started raining on the way home and melted the soap.

Luckily we made it home but gas was pouring out of the tank and I told my father 'What did you hit?!"
