Damn This Windshield Is Clean!



It seems so nonchalant, just three little words: Low Washer Fluid. But what it represents goes much further than a spot-free shine.

Let's face it, everyone abuses rental cars. Whether you rent a manual and perform clutch-free shifting, take speed bumps at full speed, purposefully wear down the brake pads, or put sugar in the gas tank, rental cars are constantly made the subjects of pent-up agression and anger. But beginning in 2007, Ron Jones elected to make his own mark on those poor cars. Yep, he started shining glass. By that, I mean he started draining ALL the wiper fluid out of the reservoir. Now you understand the picture. This becomes his trademark move. EVERY car he ever rents for the next 60 to 70 years will have its wiper fluid drained. No driver on the road will see more free and clear than Ron, and we all will be safer because of it. It is because of this thinking that I will always find humor in these situations.

So when Ron went to the desert last week for business and sent me a text informing me that he had buffed the windsheld to a shine, I didn't believe him. But then came the evidence. Truly hilarious.

In other news, I found out I got a second round interview with AIM Investments and Goldman Sachs. Today I interviewed with American Century Investments, so hopefully I'll continue in the process with them as well. Everyone, pull for me.

Tomorrow night at 8pm: Doc's for the Duke - UNC game. Join us!

Still working on next Wednesday's Valentine's Day festivities. If you've got ideas, I'm all ears. I'm thinking dinner and drinks on 6th street might do the trick. FilthFest add-on is still in the works. However, someone better buy me some damn chocolates. :-)
