MMeM, Vol.13 Issue 15 – Whoops

One of my favorite brother stories…

There have been several weird, funny, and strange things happen at your local Wal-mart. These stores have become what malls used to be, or have supplanted them, grocery stores, and auto maintenance shops. There have even been sites like “PeopleOfWalmart” or photo websites setup to document goings-on there.

Everyone goes there. Oh sure, they may lie and say otherwise, but the ease and convenience of having everything you need in one place has just proven too enticing to pass up.

Dateline – Englewood, FL.  As stated above, there are many reasons to go to Wal-mart. But, why would anyone EVER drive a mint condition 1959 corvette to a Wal-mart for ANY reason?

Next, HOW would another shopper inadvertently, I hope, park on top of said corvette?

Now, my brother once drove his new truck into a parking lot lamp post and accidentally pressed the gas pedal rather than the brake. The truck shot up the 3 foot concrete base of the lamp post and the front end got stuck up on it. He had to open the driver door and fall out of the truck. The tow truck driver he called said, over snorting laughter, he had never seen anything like that in all his years on the job.

That was one of my favorite brother stories, among many, of all time. I’m pretty sure that happened in Montana. I’ll have to ask him if that was in a Wal-mart parking lot as well.
