"MY WIFE'S BROTHER'S MOTHER-IN-LAW HAS THIS THING
ABOUT BRINGING GOOD LUCK TO ANYONE IN THE FAMILY
WHO BUYS A NEW CAR. SO WHAT MY WIFE'S BROTHER'S
MOTHER-IN-LAW WOULD DO WHEN SOMEONE IN THE FAMILY
WOULD BUY A NEW CAR, SHE (THE MOTHER-IN-LAW) WOULD
BREAK A COUPLE OF EGGS ON TOP OF THE CAR (THE ROOF)
IN WHICH SHE FELT IT WOULD BRING GOOD LUCK TO WHOM
EVER BUY A NEW CAR. SO NOW THAT WE'RE LIVING IN
MORE MODERN TIME (1980'S), FAMILY MEMBERS AND OTHER
RELATIVES ALLOW THE MOTHER-IN-LAW TO BREAK EGGS UNDER-
NEATH THE CAR RATHER THAN ON TOP OF THE CAR."
Submitter comment:
HE ALSO REFUSED TO RECORD THIS STORY. HE SAID HE
DON'T LIKE TO HEAR HIS VOICE ON TAPE. THIS WAS
ANOTHER STORY THAT MADE ME LAUGH.
