All, sometimes I'll post blathering ditties like this just to spurn ideas, and conversations...like anybody else had a fellow Mini encounter lately, know of a good restaurant, or harrassed a valet?

This is funny, at least to me...we ate at Pewter Rose in Charlotte tonight, you know it, a nice but not extravagant restaurant and there was a long line of SUVs and 4dr sedans waiting for valet. I parked myself near a silver Mini, set the alarm and handed the key to the valet when we accosted us on the way in--valet ONLY? Who knew? Explains the line, and I just thought they were all snobs! ;-)

Anyway, we came out and I said, what if he brings us the wrong Mini? Next thing you know, here comes a silver MC, yep, belonged to a young woman in line next to us, then out comes our car, alarm blaring b/c he couldn't figure out how to turn the alarm off!

He said he'd never parked two Mini's in a week, let alone back to back. He didn't mention the alarm, I guess that was obvious to everybody within three city blocks!

BTW, it's great food, even if you just get dessert!
