Little old Greek women love SG.

So I was parking in the street today and I was putting money into the meter as this elderly Greek woman (I'm of Greek descent so I know my accents and the area is predominantly Greek not that it really matters where she's from) walks by. She says in broken english "You have beautiful car, so clean and shiny, like mirror" I blushed and said "Thank you" and afterwards I thought this SG stuff must really work if a little old lady who probably can't tell the difference between a minivan and a Mini Cooper noticed my car's finish. Either that or all the other cars in the immediate area must have been really dirty.



Somehow I found it more gratifying to have her compliment my work more than one of my regular Joe Gearhead friends. Now I'm motivated to put another layer on. Just thought I'd share that with y'all.
 
Dan, that's cool. My grandparents always comment on how shiny my car is. It's very gratifying when the people you least expect to notice your work do in fact notice it.



So you're Greek eh? Very cool. My parents are from northern Greece. Though I don't speak Greek.



Bill.

These are the best compliments.



Nick,

I could go for some Loukoumades, about now.

Bill actually my parents are from northern Greece as well(the Macedonian region). Safe to assume now your real last name isn't North unless it's Northopoulos.;) I don't speak Greek either just Macedonian. Maybe we're cousins and we don't know it. :nixweiss
 
Dan, lol! You're Macedonian!! So am I!! Maybe we are cousins and we don't know it, lol!



You know, the funny thing is neither 'Bill' or 'North' are my real names. This was the very first message board I joined on the internet way back when, and being new to the whole thing I just used a fake name. 'BillNorth' was the first thing I pulled out of my a$$. Don't know why that name in particular. But everyone here knows me as Bill, so I just stuck with it and never bothered changing it.



You have one up on me since I barely speak any Massey either. My Baba wants to smack me whenever she calls because I can barely communicate with her, lol.



Oh well, enough of my rambling. I'll talk to you later!



'Bill'. :up
 
Yeah my Macedonian isn't exactly earth shattering either. I have to confess my 1st name really isn't Yosemite. ;)



Maybe we should change the "BillNorth method" to the "Macedonian method". Rolls off the tongue better.



Bill, check your PM's. This is too funny.
