wrangled and wrinkled.

Snakes escaped from the dashboard during the rain so light.
I was higher than an air-o-plane, higher than an air-o-plane.

We pulled into the refueling station. "Open all the time" the sign read. Full service, wiper blade replacement.

My life lead me to believe those neon lights were for show, and the candy ridden confines of the store were for the obese paritioners. I would feel bad using the restroom and then not buying anything. So I went in, did my business and came out 65 cents poorer.

Attendant:

"Keep the asphalt wet." he said. "No one likes a hot pave-ment." - "So keep that pave-a-ment slicked."

"It's rude to have hot cement." he said "Have you ever walked barefoot on a summer's day on a summer's day pave-ment?" "You walk fast-er and your poor feet squeal. So pour that water on the ground and let's be court-e-ous."

"Hot rocks, hot sand, hot coals - what-have-you...they don't compare to this here hot baking sun sidewalk."

"Defy me and you'll learn, by turn and turn that this is not your average walk of courage. So please fill another bucket and douse the pavement."

"You'll never walk on water son, but you can walk on soaked sidewalks."

A sign on the door read "No shoes, no shirt, no service."

We can wear heat here.

Bring your Map here, you'll need it. The coffee is in the rear if you need it. The cola baptismal is at the head of the building if you choose to use it. Contact the usher for those dollar hot dogs. Do the long sticks of beef jerky scare you? They scare me too.

How about cold slushies? All size cups are the same size and you can mix and match flavors. There's something for everyone here.

Shop lifters should watch their back, though. We've got mirrors, inked tags, and metal detection devices. This will stop you dead in tracks.
