Brass Nuts
A used car salesman at Fraser's Rip 'Em And Clip 'Em needs only one thing, brass nuts, and Joey Barnes' weighed around ten pounds apiece.
One day this middle-aged couple, John Q and Martha, came onto the lot and Joey took them in hand.
John and Martha, a rather meek duo holding their breath in the Land of the Pirates as Joey walked them around.
His sales pitch: "Yabbety-yabbety-yabbety-yab..." which worked pretty much like a noose on a gibbet's supposed to.
They finally came to a '98 Taurus, a bilious sea-green with its hood up and radioactively ticking away, and Joey said, "Yabbety-yab," and got in, cranked the key--and the engine caught fire in a cloud of black smoke.
Joey hopped out of that car with a chuckle, as if at some fondly remembered amusement, and said, "John and Martha, this obviously isn't the car of your dreams, I can tell, so c'mon, I've got one down here that I think you'll love," and he started walking, and after a moment, John and Martha, who'd been standing there pole-axed, tottered on after, like spavined kittens on Big Lester's Rotwieller Farm.
This is an oldie long dead and buried, but after Gita's adventure I had to bring it out of the ground one more time

Unless of course, John and Martha were looking for... The Cruel Car. -Nice cynicism (as always) R.C.

Hilarious. But God, those last words are great. '....like spavined kittens on Big Lester's Rottweiler Farm.' Very funny.

Nope, not the dream vehicle. Glad you brought this one back.
