Too funny

I used to have a friend named Jan. We had an enormous amount of fun in high school. For about two years, we dated guys who were friends. I married my guy, she dumped hers.

But, before all that, she had a mad crush on this guy named Mike. Jan had a car. I had the use of my dad's car, a 1966 Buick LaSabre. Here car was cooler.

One night we were out driving around. She was hoping to catch a glimpse of Mike as she drove past his house. She saw a male in the window, and said, "Is that him, or his dad?" I only heard the first part, and replied, "Yah"! (being the dutch girls that we are, i'm sure what i said was 'jah'.) Anyway...

This caused Jan to start screaming "Yah, who? Yah, who? Yah, who?" Of course, in her mind, she heard it the way she meant it. What I heard sounded more like something that a cowboy would yell at a rodeo. I laughed until I nearly passed out.

She still didn't get it.

When she finally did, she drove off the road.

Somedays, I miss her.
