Decision: Avoid Ford Taurus at All Costs

This could well turn out to be Aaron's new motto, or should be. I get a call today from Aaron; cool, I haven't talked to him in almost a week. He was out of town on the weekend and I am always delighted when he initiates the call.....sometimes it's even good news (giggles). This is what I remember of how the conversation went:

Ma, I thought I'd better call you before somebody else tells you. (Oh Lord, I think) Do I need to sit down for this? Well, if you mean am I hurt, no, I'm alright. (What now, I think.) You know how there isn't much that doesn't go wrong with my stuff...cars, trucks, house.......Ya ?? Well a lady just ran into the back of my motorcycle....How bad, did she push you in to on coming traffic or cross traffic. No, I was making a right turn in one of those Michigan turnarounds at Wagner and Jackson. Guess what she was driving.... A SUV? No, you remember when I ran up on the back of Brooke's car with the Sunbird on Slee, and when that car hit my pickup from behind when I was turning left on to Hallenbeck...? Ya. Those were all Ford Taurus and she was driving one too, just like those other two times! She got a ticket, a guy stopped and helped me pull out the fender, and the cop followed me to a safe place because I didn't have any lights on the back. Guess what else...(Oh Lord, not more). I can hardly wait Aaron. The cop wondered how come I have a CDL but not a Motorcycle Endorsement for my license? I knew that was coming. I can give you a bunch of excuses but I really don't have a good reason. So I got a ticket that, when I get the endorsement, will be waived. Wonder how I am supposed to get the Motorcycle endorsement when I can't drive my bike? !!!

Not sure how that is all going to work out but as for now I have decided to just be grateful Aaron's not hurt!
