The Scene:
Guy sitting outside a coffee shop at an outdoor table with friend, I pull into a drive-in space in front of the shop and step out.
Conversation:
Guy (30-40 year old) says, "I see you have a '49 YOM plate, your truck isn't a '49 it's a '51."
I smile and proceed inside as I'm there for coffee and not to argue with a fool.

"...my good horse Rocinante, mine eternal and inseparable companion in all my journeys and courses." ...Don Quixote, Cervantes "If you come to a fork in the road, take it."...Yogi Berra "Rudeness is the weak man's imitation of strength." ...Eric Hoffer
