great car.  I’m sure Buster kept hoping we’d ask


     for a ride, but since no one did, he finally


     broached the subject.  “Wouldn’t you guys like

     a ride?”


             “I’m not sure,” Lenny replied.  “Is it safe?”


             “Oh, aren’t you the funny one tonight,”

     Buster said.


             “I was being serious!” Lenny retorted.


             I leaned on the car and let off.  It bounced


     like a yo-yo.  “Are you sure it will handle all of

     us?” I asked.  “It appears that the shocks are


     bad.”


             “I’m sure,” Buster answered confidently.

     “The guy at the car store told me it was in top


     notch shape.”


             Lenny leaned over to me and whispered.

     “And Buster was wearing a sign that said


     ‘sucker’, too.”
