combining

Waddaya want from me.
I had to drive this huge '94 caprice classic station wagon tonight. It's bigger than my apartment.
It handles like a boat but it's nice and comfortable big and roomy. The cigarette lighter works, so i can run my zen through the radio. The only thing I ask is that people address me as "Admiral."
Tonight's passenger list included:
  • A couple going to the airport for a trip to Florida to visit his brother. She was acting very nervous because she's afraid of flying. They're a little worried that their son might possibly invite half the town for a 3 day party [memo to self: develop screenplay for 'home alone four']
  • Next was a very pretty young lady who I'd had [in the cab] before. Nice. ya know, nice.
  • A gent headed to the T from Weymouth spoke in Spanish on his cell phone for the 15 minute trip.
  • A nurse that has been riding with us lately. Some kind of accent. Scandinavian? German? Something.
  • The older lady who had visited her very elderly mother.
  • A guy headed down to the yacht club to pick up his car. The wife would've driven him but she has wicked back pain. She's probably going to need surgery.
  • A slightly mysterious, quiet man but a good tipper.
  • The short term memory loss dude made stops for beer and smokes. He could easily have picked up the smokes at the liquor store but he forgot.
  • And 4 other rides that have been edited out. Left on the cutting room floor as it were.
The Phillies won the world series. What else can i tell ya. Waddaya want from me.
