The proud owner of a magnificent 1956 Chevrolet convertible, wrote to say he had restored the car to perfection over the last few years, and sent this… On a very warm summer afternoon he decided to take his car to town. It needed gas, as the gauge was practically on empty, but he wanted ice cream, so he headed first to his favorite ice cream shop. He had trouble finding a parking space and had to park the car down a side street. He noticed a group of young guys standing around smoking cigarettes and eyeing my car rather covetously.He was a bit uneasy leaving it there, but people often take interest in such an old and well-preserved car, so he went off to enjoy his ice cream. The line at the ice cream shop was long and it took him quite a while to return to his car. When he did, his worst fears were realized… his car was gone. He called the police and reported the theft and then went back and bought a quart of pistachio ice cream. About ten minutes later the police called him to say they had found the car abandoned near a gas station a few miles out of town. It was unharmed and he was relieved. It seems just before he called, the police had received a call from a young woman who was an employee at a self-service gas station. She told them that three young men had driven in with this beautiful old convertible. One of them came to the window and prepaid for 20 dollars worth of gas. Then all three of them walked around the car. Then they all got in the car and drove off, without filling the tank. The question is, why would anybody steal a car, pay for gas that they never pumped and then abandon the car later and walk away?
I believe nothing the Democrats-Wokes-BLM-Progressives-Hamas supporting people or the MSM say or print. They support cold bloodied killers. Make the politicians do without taxpayer paid security.
Antifa is a violent bunch of criminals who joined with BLM in 2020 to protest the death of George Floyd. They were supported by sanctuary mayors, governors, and the MSM. Remember the mostly peaceful protest?
The Architecture Editor: Are you knowledgeable about what pleases the eye in buildings, LL ?
The Egypt Cat: I sure am. First thing, let me get this Obama monstrosity out of the way. Land was taken away from a public park to build this POS. Chicago politicians wanted it. It isn’t even a Presidential Library, the papers and posts are on-line.
When the Library first opened, there was a rumor in Little Rock that when a certain room light was on at night, Clinton was in town and received female visitors. Bill and Hill exited the fast lane.
