I'm picking my son up from Karate yesterday and they're running a little behind, so I'm standing in the waiting area with the other parents and I'm watching the last few minutes of my son's class. To my left, there's a guy in some sort of mechanic's uniform (blue with his name over the chest pocket) talking to his wife about her dad's car.

Mechanic: "Honey, don't tell me you jumped his car?"

Wife: "Yeah, I did. He had to get to work and he was running late, so I gave him a jump."

Mechanic: "Don't you realize that with today's cars and their computers, that if you jump somebody's car, your car could get the other car's computer viruses?"

Wife: "No, I didn't know that. You think I may have picked something up?"

Mechanic: "Yup, I do. All it takes is hooking up those jumper cables..."



It may not be a Guitar Center story, but I hope it brings as much joy to your day as it did mine.
This is precisely why I have a car for surfing the internet, and one that I strictly use for driving!
