Now that is dedication


The other day MrT and I were at Wal Mart. I love to people watch at the Wal Mart, always some very interesting peeps.



This post isn't about who I saw but what I saw:



I know the picture isn't the greatest, but yes that is a treadmill strapped to the top of a Honda Civic.


I have to admire that kind of dedication. Perhaps the deal was too good to pass up and they just had to have it right away or perhaps they were on their way to get rid of it. I had to get a closer look. I walked over to it and there was a blanket under the treadmill so that the roof would not get scratched, and the amount of jack straps to hold that thing on there would make any man jealous. The tread mill itself was circa 1985, perhaps it was a great deal.


At this point, I thought: "Why would you make a stop at the Wal Mart?" If I was trying to make sure that it was secure and make it home safe, any stops would seem unnecessary.


This whole experience made me laugh the whole way home. I am not sure why I even found it amusing. Even now, I am still laughing to myself.
