A Gut-Punch Question

I took my junker to the body shop
  My belly poking out of my tank top

Intake guy looked up from his laptop
  Sayin' ~ 'Your car or you, Pop?!'

:) This is clever and very funny too! I'm in the market for a new body as well. Hugs, Carolyn

Your comment just tickled my funny bone, Carolyn... Kept thinking: Now what kind of market is Carolyn going to shop for a new body?! Thanks, Gershon
