Stan,

Perhaps you should open a travel agency, at least you'd get the commissions
from selling plane and bus tickets.

Cheers,

Jeff

Subject: Re: Friday - Echo! Echo! The old deadbeat on the bus routine
once again .......... not exactly.

The one thing all these potential buyers have in common is that they do
everything by E mail and never telephone me for One on One.
The only call I get / got from them is the one that saves then $45.00
taxi fare from DFW to my home 1 mile from Dallas Love Field.
The first guy I took back to the airport .............. I felt humble.
The second guy I took to the bus station ............... I felt a little
embarrassed.
This third guy ....................... I didn't feel anything but pity
for him flying 1100 miles for 320$ just to screw himself out of a return
trip at the same price after about a $45.00 taxi ride to get him back to
the airport.
If he keeps throwing his money away like that he'd destined to be driving
a Yugo.
