Chin's Chow Fun

I paid bills this morning and was out getting a can of paint stripper for the R75/6 project/ when Luke called me and asked if I would go with him to Milwaukee to look at a 1998 VW Golf. Sure. We found it, he test drove it, we liked it, he offered $2400, the guy said no, he was asking $2950 and it used to be $3100.
Luke and I started home and I felt like lunch so we stopped at Chin's and I got Chin's Chow Fun just because I liked the name. REALLY good choice. With hot tea and hot and sour soup. MMMM.
We were half way home when we discovered that neither of us had a drivers license. The guy had asked to hold one of our dl while Luke test drove and I gave him mine figuring that Luke needed to have his to drive and not realizing that Luke had already given his to this guy. Why would he take both of ours without saying something about it? Well, we had all forgotten. We called the guy and headed back to meet him at his apartment. I was kidding and said to Luke that the guy should give us $300 off for the trouble that he caused. Luke was not kidding and said that he would offer him $2650 to see if the guy would take it. HA. He did! Luke bought this really nice VW for nothing! Good job.
