Ended up behind an SUV at a stop light yesterday.?ÿ The rear window had the dealership name emblazoned in 2-inch high letters near the top of the window.?ÿ What I saw was Old Fort Auto.?ÿ What I read was Old Fart Auto.
I began to chuckle, turned to my chauffeur, pointed to the rear of the?ÿ SUV and started to say how I had misread the name.?ÿ She began chuckling before I could tell her what I was thinking.?ÿ She misread it the same way I did.
What made it funnier for her was that the owner of that dealership was a student of hers many years ago and has had all of his children as students.
I'm thinking he needs to turn this into a national chain of dealerships specifically aimed at keeping us old farts up to date on on automotive choices.?ÿ Specialization is the profit-maker, I hear.
And it's an ever-growing demographic, too.
I was once behind a car whose owner had taken apart and reassembled a chrome Oldsmobile logo. It now read "Old Moe."
