Coasted along and pulled into the Cecil. I was mad, at myself and my car. Got out and started kicking the car, cursing up a storm. A couple of drunks in the parking lot took notice and came up asking "hey buddy- what's the matter." I replied "****in piston broke." The bigger of the two guys put his hand on my shoulder and said "Ah, don't worry. We've been pissed and broke for years!"
