what doesn't seem
like enough time, you notice a speck in
your rear view mirror. You turn around,
and sure enough, a T is approaching you
from behind. Slowly but surely he gains
on you, until now, he is right behind
you. The traffic is light, and soon he is
around you. He gives you a friendly wave,
and you watch as his bright green car
pulls farther and farther away.
Around a couple more bends you notice
that you are gaining on a car. Sure
enough, it's a T. It seems like a long
time, but finally you're right behind
him. You notice as he frantically
twiddles all manner of knobs and levers
to try to coax just a little more speed
out of his car. It's no use. You're going
to pass him. The double yellow line goes
away, and you make your move. Around him
you go. You know just the wave to give
him as you go by. What a thrill! You
continue down the road on cloud nine. Oh
- no! What's that up ahead? It looks like
a dead T along side the road. Sure
enough, it's your friend in the green T
with his head under the dash, and his
feet sticking out the driver's door. You
hope it isn't too serious, and it
probably isn't - maybe wiring or a bad
switch.
Soon you see the flagger up ahead and you
pull into town. You love driving your T,
but this is far and away the most fun
you've ever had driving a T, and that's
saying a lot.
