Friday Wisdom – Road Trip

Posted on 05/14/2021 by Andrew Reynolds

I had to do a lot of driving yesterday so here are some thoughts on travelling:

We were having trouble finding the store so I turned down the radio so I could see better.

When we got to the hotel the desk clerk asked if I had reservations. I said, “Yes, but I’ll risk it and stay here anyway.”

I was listening to a report on the radio that said soon there will be self-driving trucks. Made me wonder how long it will be before there’s a country song where the guy’s truck leaves him.

My brother said I couldn’t make a car out of spaghetti – you should have seen the look on his face when I drove pasta.

It’s bad when it’s raining cats and dogs, but watch for hailing taxi.

Why aren’t more aliens visiting earth? Horrible ratings – only one star.

There’s nothing like sleeping through a road trip – except for the screaming of your passengers …

Did you hear about the pianist who was planning a vacation? She wants to go to the Florida Keys.

I went to the airport and got sick. The doctor thought I might have a terminal illness.

My road trip play list includes the song, “Hotel California.” After it played the sixth time I turned off the music. You can turn off the song anytime you want but the song never leaves.

    Turning down the radio so you could see better cracked me up. I can see that happening. 🙂 The Florida keys brought a chuckle, too. 🙂

    That’s the first time I’ve laughed out loud for a while. The one about making a car out of spaghetti.

    I know you meant the first as a joke but it’s true innit–don’t distract your senses!

    I had to chuckle at the first one. I do in fact drive with the radio off so I can see better. Or that’s what I tell people. I don’t need another distraction.
