A couple of weeks ago my friend and his wife invited me to a local Humane Society benefit event. It's a banquet type event with a meal and wine/beer tasting, silent auctions, door prizes, all kinds of stuff. It was beautiful out, so I drove the Delorean. My friend was cornered during the event by a guy that he knew, who was beside himself that there was a Delorean parked outside, and he wasn't sure what to do about it. He was that excited. My friend says, "Oh yeah, that's my buddy Joe's car, he's standing right over there. You should go talk to him, he'll let you sit in it and take pictures. He'd probably even let you drive it if you haven't had anything to drink. He was in disbelief the whole time, and he was too nervous to just come over and talk to me about it. It reminded me of some young dude who's to afraid to talk to a beautiful girl. After the event, we drove a couple of blocks to the local legion for a beer. My buddy introduced us and I talked to him for a bit about non-Delorean stuff, and he finally asked me about the car. I said, "Yeah, it's parked out front. Let's go look at it." He was like a little kid on Christmas morning. It was fun seeing him so excited about it. It reminded me of the couple of times that I saw a Delorean before I had one of my own.
