Several days ago as I left a meeting at a hotel; I desperately gave myself a personal TSA pat down.
I was looking for my keys. They were not in my pockets. A quick search in the meeting room revealed nothing.
Suddenly I realized I must have left them in the car. Frantically, I headed for the parking lot.
My wife has scolded me many times for leaving the keys in the ignition.
My theory is the ignition is the best place not to lose them.
Her theory is that the car will be stolen. As I burst through the door, I came to a terrifying conclusion.
Her theory was right. The parking lot was empty.
I immediately called the police. I gave them my location, confessed that I had left my keys in the car, and that it had been stolen.
Then I made the most difficult call of all, "Honey," I stammered; I always call her "honey" in times like these.
"I left my keys in the car, and it has been stolen." There was a period of silence. I thought the call had been dropped, but then I heard her voice.
"Idiot", she barked, "I dropped you off!"
Now it was my time to be silent. Embarrassed, I said, "Well, come and get me."
She retorted, "I will, as soon as I convince this policeman I have not stolen your car."
Yep it's the golden years.
LMAO!!! Priceless! Thanks for sharing I love anyone who understands the value and importance of "laughing at yourself," The good Lord knows that I have enough material to entertain for hours.

Done that too many times Troy, one would think they’d learn. Often go into the workshop or garage with great intent, get distracted by something else and then totally forget what my original purpose was.

Well John, you could have asked her to give the phone to the policeman and then told him you had no idea who the woman was that took your car. That may have given you a few days of free time for fishing.

Now that would be a very good idea, Greg. But I don't think it would be worth it in the long run. Poor John would really pay for doing that, but it would be funny to talk about. That would be a post that wouldn't end soon.
