While putting gas in my minivan, I note the nearest car, which is a banged-up piece of crap last cleaned around 1983. The driver's a tattooed goober in a gimme cap. His obese wife lethargically chews gum as if it were cud. Beanie Babies fill the rear windshield.
Their bumper sticker: "We speak English in this country -- Learn It or Leave!"
Take me with you when you go, por favor.

Now there's the beginning of a story.
Y yo tambien, si tu quieres. Que feo.
What's a "gimme cap"? I'm way behind the times, I guess.
Hi grammalyn:
A gimme cap is a baseball cap, usually with a corporate logo on the front. Given away for free, hence "gimme."

Thanks, Steve. At least I knew what a wife beater shirt was - LOL
