[VAC] Heaven is a $5 bill
Hi
I left Albany, NY at midnight with our '67 22' Safari and took it to Arlene
Fowler in Paducah, KY for a complete interior makeover (white glove
cleaning, new drapes, new upholstery, new foam rubber and new carpet).
After almost 24 hours non-stop, a Flying J Service Station was at the next
exit. I recalled they have showers for guys and gals who are scruffy, stinky
and are in dire need of "freshening up." It was a hot day, my stubble was
scratchy, perspiration had taken on a odor all its own and I was ripe.
The clerk's reply to me was, "That will be $5, Mr. Tyler," when I asked for
the combination to a one of their bathrooms with towels and a shower. For
me, that $5 bill bought a heavenly experience. Half an hour later, I was
rolling again, feeling 1000% better and seeing the world differently.
