Funny stuff, Bill. Talk about not knowing anything? These two don't even suspect anything. LOL

Good creations though as I've said before. I especially liked these lines;

"Ned: Maybe we can git one at a time, Pons.
Dealer: Perhaps taking the bus would be more in your price range?

Good stuff. Bob

I can feel the dealer's frustration with Pons, but he handled it well. Ned is still the most sensible of the two. Buying tires is not an easy situation for either fella. Well written!

OMG. I thought Abbot and Costello were off the air. These guys crack me up. They would rival the Stooges, Abbott and Costello, the Marx Brothers and Amos N Andy all wrapped up together.

I enjoy these characters. I believe if these two were real instead of characters, Ned might be spending more time at home or with tape over his mouth. We need him in order to laugh. Pons is the straight man

    Thanks, Beth. Yes, Pons should represent the average person and Ned someone off the bead.

This is my first time reading this script. This is a scream! Love it! Sounds like my brothers... well, most of them. Actually, one is still a mechanic and works on cars in his barn. He has done this since I can remember. He's buys the best tires money can afford.

Tires ain't pretty, but they really are 'port-ant!

Sending you my best today as always,

Haaaaa, this has got me laughing pretty good. Especially the part about the cheap tires ensuring your life will be in constant peril. So true.

I like how you got the name brands changed so they are totally recognizable.

Excellent script, Bill. I'm still chuckling.

A funny and seemingly real everyday tire store life short story script. I love the play on tire store name brands and playful banter between the three characters - kind of reminds me of a Live from New York it's Saturday Night skit. Happy Holidays and Continued Prayers and Blessings for your Families Safety.

Good to see Pons and Ned back at it. And I liked your names of Coolyear and Funstone. I wonder if they make the wheels like Fred Flintstone had. Probably more expensive than the Coolyear. Thanks for the giggles!

Delightful wit and whimsy--Your life will be in constant peril--two tires for half-price. Clever wordplay on tire brands--Coolyear. Warning: the PC Police will object to "foreign crap" (I, on the other hand, am amused.)

    I had originally been more specific on which country made crap tires, but pulled back to the general slight.
