MY MOST MEMORABLE RIDER COMMENTS IN AUGUST

 It was a very short month of driving for me, but here are my rider comments:


"Our Uber driver yesterday was a little quirky. At one point he said, "I can't see too well anymore and then he was talking to us as if he was talking through a radio to the back seat."

His name is Lauren and he told me, "Uber drivers are always looking for a girl, I'm not even a good- looking dude."

I asked the three girls of the bachelorette party, "What is something unique or unusual about the bride to be?" With her sitting in the car, someone said, "She has a crooked elbow." (Broken twice)

The 27-year-old from North Carolina said, "When I was in college I did work in marketing and made $100,000. I then decided to be a rapper." With his music business he works with four artists and is about to do a three-city tour performing. He added, "I also wrote a children's book which did very well on Amazon."

"My last Uber driver was 70 years old and he said he's in a rock band. He played some music and then started rocking out."

She surprised me when she said, "I became an attorney so I could work for a non-profit."

I asked the trumpet player, "What are you going to do when you graduate with a master's in music?" He replied, I'm going spend time enjoying my life."


I asked the couple married 62 years, "What's the secret to a successful marriage?" They said, "Show love and respect to each other and a sense of humor helps."

I asked the Navy guy who had been on a nuclear sub, "Did you pull into any foreign ports?" He said, "No, they are not usually fond of nuclear missiles."

"When I came to the South I couldn't understand why everyone was waving at me."

She: "If you want a bachelorette party to drink, go to Nashville, but if you want to shop, come to Charleston."

He: "When I was in Dubai they had a ski resort in a mall. They go all out to keep people cool."

The couple had been dating five years and I said to the guy, "When are you going to pop the question?" His girlfriend started laughing and said, "Never."

From Wisconsin he said, "We are a drunken state. We have some of the drunkest cities in the country."

She: "The beaches in California are not as nice as the beaches in Myrtle Beach."


He: "When I was in eighth grade I was a running back and I received a trophy from Walter Payton at an awards ceremony."

She said, "Charlotte is the best place in the world to live."

"I was in Chicago during the Democratic Convention and I was stuck there two days trying to get a flight out."

She golfed in the Myrtle Beach tournament and said, "I had 35 friends here and I made others too."

The group of four girls said about the rest of the girls, "They are boring."

Telling him that some people are afraid of mannequins, he said, "You can count on me not to be afraid of mannequins."
