Things You Didn't Know...

I'm hoping to make this a running post, as there seems to be many more things that I didn't know that I didn't know....heh heh....

So I'm driving the jeep, my sister's riding shotgun, the kids are in the back all ipodded up...
I need gas.
Since it's my mom's jeep, I say to my sister, 'look out the window and tell me if the gas cap is on your side'...
She gives me this 'huh' look and says, 'Are you serious?'
I'm, like, 'uh, yeah, I don't know what side the gas tank is on'....
She busts a gut laughing.....
I'm, like, 'what???!!'
She's, like, 'Oh no you just didddn't!!!'
"Didn't WHAT??!!'

By this point, she's laughing so hard she can't answer....I'm thinking it's not that funny, really...

She says, 'look at your gas gauge'... I tell her, 'I did, that's why we're pulling into the gas station, we need gas!' (who's on first.....)

She looks at me and through her laughter says, 'how did you figure out where the tank was normally?'

To which I say, 'Well, I pull the gas cap flipper, which pops the cap, I look out the side windows and that's how I tell which side the tank is on'....

Okay - by this time, she's laughing so hard she's crying....

What??!!!

Once she got her breath back, she says, 'look at your gas gauge, look at the little arrow by the picture of the gas pump....see that??? The arrow points to the side that the gas tank is on...'

The heavens opened, the angels sang, it was like an epiphany....

'Wow!!! That is SO cool....I had no idea!'...to which she bursts out laughing again....

She looked at me like I had two heads....and of course, once she told JB, well it started all over again....

LOL


Seriously, how many people actually know that???!!! I'd be curious to know....
