Very funny and reminds me of the following story my Dad told when he =
came home from work.

Many Many years ago my Dad worked at a Ford Dealership as the new car =
mechanic.  On a particular day a customers car was towed into the shop.  =
The owner said it stopped on the highway and he could not get it =
started.  After some investigation it was determined that the engine was =
seized up due to no oil in the pan.  When asked if the red oil light had =
come on the customer said;=20

Well yes, a few weeks ago and I got so tired of looking a it I reached =
up behind the dash and pulled it out. =20

Do you think these people are related in some way????

Have a good day and remember that these people are being produced =
somewhere to put a smile on everybody else face, especially mine.

  Every so often we get one of those calls where the
  customer is definitely out in the ozone.  This morning
  a lady called asking if we could help her find out who
  is tracking her.  I explained that we're not a detective
  agency but, out of curiosity, asked what made her
  believe she's being tracked.  She said someone has
  installed a GPS tracking system in her truck.  I asked
  where the device is.  She said it's somewhere inside
  the dashboard.  Suspecting a loony, I asked if she
  could see the device.

  "No, but a light is showing next to the speedometer.
  It looks like an oil can and it says '15%' next to it."

  I explained that's just a reminder to change the oil.

  She was adamant, "They're definitely tracking my
  movement."

  I suggested she contact the local police department.
  Hopefully, they'll refer her to a "professional" who
  can assist her.
