I think this picture was taken when I was first driving the bull truck for my dad.
Looks like we were laying off on the K-M lot about 1953. While there I was instructed to put on a Chevrolet hat and jacket and learn how to lead an elephant.
Prior to that my expertise had been confined to being a concessionaire.
Remarkably, within a week I knew everything there was to know.

That's not so remarkable, Buckles. Any eighteen year old can do it.

They can even vote- and if that doesn't scare you I don't know what will.
