Bumper to Bumper

So, I'm hanging out with my buddy, Chilli Amar (http://www.mix1073fm.com/showdj.asp?DJID=996) today and we got to talking about the things people will say or write to us at our respective jobs. (In case you are *completely* out of the loop, Chilli is the afternoon personality on Mix107.3 along side Carson -- she keeps everyone up to speed on the traffic hang ups for the drive home, among other things.) We were comparing notes -- I get the usual "How tall are you?" and the occasional curve ball like I did today "There is a rumor that you got married; Is it true?" (the answer is no.) But Chilli had a good one that actually had me mouthing a phrase to myself in my rear view mirror while driving around this evening. Chilli actually has a contingency of people who like how she says "bumper to bumper." They contact her and tell her so!

Fast forward to this evening, while driving over to the Double T Diner, I heard her traffic update and sure enough she uttered the fave phrase. And there I was eyeing myself in my rear view mirror, practicing how I would say it! What is WRONG with me? I'll have to admit, though, it is fun to say. Now my goal will be to see if I can slip it somehow into my weather lexicon while bantering about the forecast tomorrow morning. Should you hear me say it, you'll be on the inside track.

Goodnight!
