I snapped this photo today with my iphone, I dont know if it a sign of the crumbling economy, professional laid off turned pizza man? Maybe it is just a guy driving his moms or dads car, he looked fairly old though. Anyway, though it was worth a look. Maybe a good laugh.

Maybe domino's just pays really well...

The pic looks like you smoked some funny stuff today.

If I had smoked some funny stuff, I would have just snapped the shot when he was at the front door delivering my pizza. However my funny stuff consumption is limited to alcohol!

Wow!!! Looks like Domino's serious about their 30 minute or less delivery pledge.

Or maybe that old used BMW costs about as much as a Civic and is quite affordable to a teenage kid that doesn't feel like driving a rice-burner POS?

Why didn't you just say you were drunk in the first place? Then those jacked-up, crooked pics would have been perfectly understandable.

now that i think about it, i will blame the camera angle on my quickness... if you notice, i have two completely different angles of the same car in the same position, if you notice, the only person not in the same place is me.... you would assume that if i had time to pull in and do a u turn, the person in front of the 328 would have sufficient time to at least pull out... guess i am just that fast, and i managed to think about taking a pic or two from different angles while i was at it....
