Loose Parts by Dave Blazek for October 09, 2018

Oh, hail no.

The hail you say

Hummer: a Chevy with a fancy body. And a ridiculous price tag.

Where angels go….trouble follows♪

Convertibles would be more fun…

My buddy lived in Houston for quite a few years. He says the best time to buy a car was after a banging hailstorm came through. Dealers couldn’t sell a hail-damaged car as “new” because they’d had to repair it, so you could get a new car at a used-car price.

Please destroy it.

No, hold out for the Lexus.

I just got the insurance adjustment for hail damage to my house; $22,700. Glad I don’t have to pay all of that.

Ah, the hail claims I’ve written. – Then there was the guy who garage-kept his mint condition 30 year old 1970 240Z. It had only 36K miles on it, and absolutely no rust! One day, he decided to clean out his garage, so he moved the Z outside for a few hours. His oak tree decided to rid itself of a dead limb at exactly the same time…

It would be wasted on a Chevy Vega.

“Beep, beep, beep …” (From Steven Wright’s “Best of Backup”)

I should think boredom would be a continuing problem for angels. Most people’s idea of heaven don’t inspire me to do anything at all to qualify. Some are downright repugnant.
