Date Posted: 10:03:22 10/18/03 Sat Author Host/IP: 66.233.51.57 In reply to: Harry 's message, "Re: HEY ALL YOU SCARED GUYS" on 14:53:04 09/23/03 Tue Harry has passed on. For all that you knew him and what he was about, you'll know that it's a miracle he's made it this far. There was the time in auto shop class back in high school when he got his long sleeve sweater hung in the electric fan of my Nova. The time when he tried to jump start his car by running the extension cord from the outlet in the house to his battery (all the while standing in that rain puddle). The time he was struck by lightning, IN A MOVIE THEATER!!! The list goes on..... Harry was a good man and didn't deserve to leave this world the way he did. You see, Harry was always trying to one-up me in life. When I got the sweet Nova to run better than his Ford Ranch Wagon, it was on! So he proceded to juice the ol' Wagon up with a giant nitrous kit atop his 5.0 liter EFI Ford motor. He ran a button up to the steering wheel and zip tied it on so he could pull the trigger and keep both hands on the wheel. Well, ol' Harry ran out of gas (or so he thought) on his way to work yesterday morning and pulled to the side of the road. He was only a few hundred feet from the gas station. This is where it all went oh so wrong. With the driver side door open and Harry pushing with all his might, he slowly inched his way toward the pumps. Within seconds, Harry's life and others around him would soon be changed by some loose gravel under his footing as his feet broke traction on the gravel and he fell forward. Now normally, this would be no big deal. But in case you've forgotten, there was this issue of a nitrous button zip tied to his steering wheel. And as Harrry fell forward, he stuck his arms out to stop himself and a hand struck the button AND the transmission lever on the steering column in one swift movement. thus jump starting the Ranch Wagon. As the "Black Wagon of Death" (ironically, Harry named it this after taking out a whole pack of dogs one night coming home from the bar) roared to life, Harry's right hand became entangled in the steering wheel. With the rear tires spinning wildly out of control and dragging Harry down the road, the Wagon swereved this way and that until finally coming to rest inside the deli of the gas station he planned to fill up at. As Harry freed himself and tried to make his way out of the already ablaze building, he realized he had been given another chance at life. Harry tried to make it across the street in his shredded overalls and torn up shoes so he might be able to sit and collect his thoughts. As he stepped out onto the road to cross it, he had already forgotten one thing. Look both ways. Harry was blindsided by a Taxi driven by local 7-11 proprietor and taxi company owner Muhammad Habib. Poor Muhammad stopped to check on Harry and to see if he could in anyway help. It was too late. Harry was quickly fading out, and when Muhammad asked if there was anything he could get for Harry, Harry replied with, "All I want....." cough cough, "...is a......cherry slurpee......" So, next time you get a chance folks, stop on by your local 7-11, fix yourself a cherry slurpee, hold it high, and say, "This is for you Harry!!!"
