My favorite...

I went there to install the new tires I bought at Tire Rack. It was quiet
in the garadge (I was the only one there) so I decided to just hang around
and see to it that they did it right.

So the guy began to take the wheels off the car. When he came to the last
wheel, he took 4 of the 5 lug nuts off and began to pound the wheel using
wooden mallet. It went for about 30 seconds as he's trying to figure out
something.

I went, "What's up?"

He said, "I think the wheel has seized."

And then it countinued for another 10 seconds, and then I said to him,
"Why don't you take off the last lug nut and try that?" At this time, I
thought the wheel has actually seized, you see. The last lug nut is
actually loosened -- he just didn't take it off of the screw. And I
thought he didn't bother to take it off because the wheel is actually
seized, see?

He looked at the last lug nut, hit his head and said, "Doh!"

(^:

"If it ain't broken, you ain't trying hard enough."
