Get Da Jag

My friend Cynthia from the Bush Tetras was looking for a car in LA.

Only losers walk in the City of Angels.

A pale-yellow Jaguar E-Class caught her eye and she wondered whether she should purchase it, if only in her mind.

“Get da Jag.”

I green-lighted the buy.

Back in the 1960s two teenage motorheads from my hometown tried to re-arrange the direction of their father’s Jag ie reverse the front end to the rear end.

Their mechanical effort was an absolute failure, but a brilliant failure.

The Jag sped down the suburban street out of control.

There was no steering.

No brakes either.

The two innovators ended up in a field.

Their father came home from vacation.

The Jag never drove right again and he never admonished his son.

After all it was just a car and even more so now.

Get da Jag.
