Like Driver, Like Car----

While driving behind an old beater car, we both came to a stop at the traffic light. When the light changed to green, this old beat up heap in front revved up and a huge billow of smoke came pouring out of the exhaust. Then I noticed that with almost equal intensity, smoke began pouring out of the inside of the car as well (its windows had been down). As I looked carefully, I noticed the guy was huffing and puffing on a big cigar. You couldn't tell which cloud was the cigar vapor or which was the auto's contaminant.

Well, indications are that the car's engine was in bad need of repairs. I could also make the same diagnosis with the driver, as both needed a vital fixing up. A few more miles like that and both will end up on the junk heap with leaky valves, oozing with nicotine and 10W30; especially the human pulmonary ones!

Maybe we could all use a spiritual tune up as well. You can only blow smoke for so long!
