Cool OK I am stupid

I get in my car this morning and insert the keys and turn them to the full on position. I press in the clutch and press the start button.

Nothing.

I press the start button.

Nothing.

The radio has since come on since it was on when I turned the car off last.

I press the start button.

Nothing, but now the radio has gone to static.

I am now looking at the dash gauges to see if I have any warning lights.

I press the start button

Nothing, but now the radio is back in clear broadcast.

I look over to start button to see if it is malfunctioning in some way.

I AM PRESSEING THE RADIO BUTTON ABOVE THE START BUTTON!!!!

I then press the start button, the car starts just fine and I roar off trying to estimate my new low for IQ.

Sometimes I be uber stupid!!!!

Rob, this is what happens to you when you are approaching threshold of being able to join the Vintage S2K Community. Other reasons could be as follows:

1). You were dreaming about Danica on our next photo shoot opportunity next Wed night at the Hard Rock in Tampa,

2). Mrs Primogen gave you a spcial "wink" goodbye as you walked out the front door to go to work this morning,

3). You were still wishing that you could trade for Cheryl's S/C White S,

4). Trying to figure out how to buy my new Berlina Black Hardtop from me to further your addiction to modding out your existing hot rod,

5). Wishing you had a garage like Scott so you would not have to be dreaming about buying his new Berlina Black Hardtop.


....Just laughing with you, not at you!!!

Oh, my. Are you sure that you wanted to share that? Not to worry. Whether we admit it or not, it happens to all of us in one form or another.

I've never done that, but when I get in my truck or other car I try and push the non existant button to start it sometimes.
