OK, quick. I just sent this e-mail to my department:

Homies and players,

New checklists are now on file by the copier, yo.

Peace. I'm out.

And I got this reply:

Subject: RE: new policy for jacket mechanicals

did you used to drive a 16-wheeler by any chance--?


What's that mean??? I don't get it. Is he mistaking my hustla lingo for good-ol'-boy slang? I'm confused.

Perhaps he mistook your urban flavor for Citizen Band vernacular?

Ahhhh, that must be it. He's not exactly what you'd call hip. Or maybe he thinks I'm part of Kid Rock's crew.

he's confused. I think maybe he thinks "I'm out" is like "over and out" like Smokey and the Bandit type CB stuff or something. Also, I thought they were 18 wheelers.

Good thought! I didn't even think of that. And maybe he's trying to say that I'm two wheels short of a full rig. ;)

Heh... should have read before I replied. Great minds, and all that.

HA ha!

I think he is mistaking you for somebody who is few wheels short of a semi.
