My dad had a great sense of humor, too, but was sometimes really dense. He was an engineer, but everyday things sometimes threw him for a loop. One example, he had a t-bird back in the late 60s/early 70s, and he and my brother were trying to get it running. They finally decided the battery was dead. So they took the battery out and were going to take it up to the corner service station to get it charged. Except Dad put it in the trunk of the t-bird, got in the t-bird to drive up to the gas station and couldn't figure out why it wouldn't start!
