Subject: Re: Saturday Chat 09.19.09 by teebee on 2009/9/20 1:59:07 I watched my middle grandson play football, then went to a car show. Mine and a 94 roadster were the only Vettes. A couple of MG's, a Viper, bunch of old muscle cars and a few hotrods. I didn't win anything (I didn't expect to), but had a good time and planted a few seeds about Corvettes. One little guy, about 10 or so, with his mom and grandmother(assumed) came by and said to his mom "I can see myself in that car.", pointing at my Corvette. I said to him "Really? You can see yourself in this Corvette?" His mother said "Oh, he loves Corvettes," I said, as I opened the door, "Well, you had better get over here and sit in it." His eyes lit up like huge spotlights, "You really mean it?" I said "Sure, why not?". He jumps in and sits back with this huge grin on his face, Grandma says "Can I take his pictures with him in there?"..."Well you'd better, I don't think he'll smile like that again for a while." As he got out he said "Thank You for letting me sit in your car." His mom and grandma thanked me as well. That was worth more than than any award I could have received. |
