How TABS Got His Name

Mother was drinking her Gin & Tonics more heavily than usual when she laid it on me how I got my name...She said, " I was listening to the radio and heard this song and thought it was rather cute, so that is how you got your name" I said, "CUTE, you think it was cute to be named after a pair of fking CHIPMUNKS."

YouTube - The Chipmunk Song

I just drove the wife's 330 w/ snow tires back from Boyne Mountain this afternoon. Counted 11 seperate spin outs on 23 many involving multiple cars. It was snowing HARD! I could only manage 65 a few times for the last 100 miles to the Ohio line due to nimrods in the fast lane doing as low as 30mph at times.

Pretty bizarre after last weeks big melt.

Oh yeah.... why does TABS have a "S" on the end.... must have plural personalities.

I had my 911 at the garage to fix a minor oil leak and had no idea it was snowing. This morning it was beautiful out. This was not a fun 4 mile drive back to our warehouse where I store it on race tires!





I like Teddy better!

Funny, I opened this thread in a new tab while pulling the tab to open the Tab cola, pet the tabby while tabulating the numbers, but I tend to type in run-on sentances and haven't used that key.
Chipmunks?

Cute tale.

Though I suspect that your mother enjoyed her G&T a few too many times BEFORE you were born. Do you have a short upper lip?

I thought it was a reference to the little papers with acid on them that he puts on his tongue before he posts here most days.

I sent that information to mother in an e-mail just last week, and now she has passed it onto you.
Good thing I didn't send it to 60 minutes.
