9 Minute Lube
Today I stopped by my local 9 Minute Lube to get... well... a 9-minute lube.
I pulled up to the pit and the crew went to work on my truck like I was in the Indy 500. In just a couple of minutes I had the air in my tires checked, my coolant topped-off, the wiper fluid filled, the oil changed and a new oil filter installed.
When the attendant approached me for payment, he noticed the ski rack on my truck. I prepared myself for a sales pitch.
Pointing to the ski rack, the attendant said, "You know, when you are up in the cold, sometimes your wiper fluid can freeze."
"Uh huh," I said.
"You can prevent that by adding a little alcohol to the wiper fluid," he said. "Or, if you are a drinker, don't drink the whole bottle. You can pour a couple of shots into the tank and it'll work like anti-freeze."
Or maybe if I'm ever in need of a cocktail I'll drink my wiper fluid.
