 Posted: 01/07/04 - 13:07 Post subject: Now that's a heck of a birthday present!
I was on the phone with UPS tech support and I was making small talk while I waited for their monstrosity of a program to install.
The young lady I spoke to said that her friends were taking her out for her birthday after work today and that her dad called her this morning before she went to work to let her know that her card and cheesecake would be waiting for her when she got off of work.
No wait...she said CAR, not card.
She said she gets a new car every year for her birthday.  This year, it's a green Dodge Durango. Last year was a black Honda CRX.
So, I inquire, how many brothers and sisters do you have and does your dad do this for all of them. I assumed that maybe she was an only child and her parents were just spoiling her. Boy was I wrong.
She replied that she had 14 brothers and sisters and that Dad bought all of them that are old enough to drive a new car every year for their birthday.

perhaps he is a car dealer and while it sounds like an expensive gift, it may actually cost him very little......

Does her dad own UPS? It is a privately held company I think.
I'm hungry for cheesecake.
