We were just at this BP and the muffler man is no longer there. Not sure when or where he went.

The one-armed Paul Bunyan in BP livery looked down on our charter bus -- we were returning from Salem, Massachusetts, to Kentucky -- as we sat for eight hours, broken-down and blocking the pumps, on Halloween Day 2021. You can't make this stuff up.
