What do Engineers drive?
Here I was, thinking this Engineer thread was about to die, and I pull
up to a stopsign. Right in front of me is this recent Pontiac Bonneville
SSE, you know, the one that has the '90's version of fins yelling "Look
at me!", in a nice shade of gold. The license plate had one of those
rims advertising something, and as I got close enough to read it, I
almost qualified myself for a Depends ad. In the top corners it had
"PE", one in each corner, and across the bottom, it said "ENGINEER". Now
I know what REAL Engineers drive. License plate surrounds attached to
agricultural Detroit iron. Glad I don't qualify for that kind of
transportation, even though I *am* certified by Banyan as an engineer
(big deal), not registered as a PE by anyone, nor able to paper any wall
with any engineering diplomas.
