Opportunity Knocks

Every Thursday morning, for the past year or so, there has been a semi truck parked in the dirt off the overpass near my office. It sits innocently on the side of the road in the morning hours and is usually gone before 10am. I wouldn't normally comment on a parked Semi, they're always around. The part that makes this particular truck special is the huge picture of Bacardi Limon and the booze that hides in its cargo section.

Every time I see the truck I get this overwhelming feeling that I need to do something. I need to liberate this hold of booze. I need to be Robin Hood! I need to take from the rich and give to the poor! Namely ... me!

However, my conscious takes over and I think how wrong it would be. I mean, its Bacardi! Who would drink that much bad rum? Sure they could have Bacardi Reserva Limitada, which isn't half bad, but they probably only have Silver.

And this, people, is why I drink Gin.

  1. well, truth be known, just because there is Bacardi splashed all over the outside of the truck does NOT mean that there is only Bacardi inside. it merely indicates that they paid for the advertisement positioning. the distributor's truck likely contains all manner of spirits, wine and beer... including some very very nice rums and other things (as well as Bacardi no doubt).
