Has anything unlucky happened to you today?

Well, it started when my car broke down. I went to rent-a-wreck and noticed you could rent a postal minivan. So I did. Then that broke down. A kindly Oakland police officer was understandably befuddled by my story and garb. Oh yeah, I was dressed for an interview as a children's entertainer. She was understanding though and listened. But when she noticed that my insurance had expired three business days before, she dropped her hands at her sides, looked me in the eye and said, "Now you have one chance to tell me what _actually_ is going on."

I repeated in earnest that what I'd told her was true and that if she called the rental place, they'd corroborate my story. I sensed her patience with this _clown_ was wearing thin.

"mister , I've got criminals to catch. You, I think are one, but I'm sick of looking at you. Get your insurance updated and good luck at your interview. Good day.

So I didn't get the job.
