Josh Ballard rented a Chevy Malibu for the weekend, so he could more easily get to various Memorial Day BBQs. He drove me home from the finale:<br />
<br />
After a moment of silence, Josh said, "I wish I could drive this car for a living, it's so quiet."<br />
"You want to get paid to drive this specific car?" I asked.<br />
"Yeah, there are truck drivers, I want to get paid to be a car driver. I could transport cargo."<br />
"You could call it "EsCarGo," I laughed.<br />
"I could transport sea food from the Chesapeake to Lancaster."</div>r___andersonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01175485918234848217noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9096074342640746859.post-53989801143966833992012-05-07T00:41:00.001-04:002012-05-07T01:03:18.598-04:00JB photo of the week<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
