I got a set of records from that group in exchange for five boxtops in the 1970s...may have even been the late 60s. Wish I still had them.

I have driven while intoxicated in a golf cart. I regret nothing.

wonder how many farkers are going to get this one? It even took me almost a nano-second, but then I'm only on my second cup of coffee and it is practically the crack of 10:59 AM. My god, why do people get up before noon, is beyond me.

I really wish there was footage of this.

Sounds hilarious. I love low speed pursuits.

"The deputy told the suspect to stop, but he rammed the patrol car with the golf cart and sped off, the report said."


ok, so how fast is a golf cart ? or how slow are the cop cars there ???

Seriously, though business here is rough for us free-lancers. There have been days when I've considered hijacking a golf cart....

Sadly, not yet. Needs moar complaints about how no one involved in pharmacy cares about my problems, and more people bragging about how much they love abusing prescription medication. C'mon, guys. Remind me why I hate my job.

Seriously, though. Where's the Florida tag?

Vulpy, I feel your pain. I do not, however, hate my job. I work in a small Walgreens on-site pharmacy though, so I don't see as much of it as I did when I worked in a store.

/also noticed the lack of the Florida tag

Lucky...!

I feel obligated to mention that Walgreens is a great employer, with some of the highest retention rates for entry-level retail jobs in the country (which in turn leads to employees that know what the heck they're doing). It's the system that's farked.

A sense of comraderie is all that keeps me in my current job, though. That, and the lousy economy.

Those weren't golf carts, they were Banana Buggies... for going over hill and highway.



Since you're all here, anyone remember the movie length version where, IIRC, they got trapped inside a billboard? Was it ever commercially released?

Wow, I hate to break all of your childhood thoughts, but those aren't golf carts. They're argos. www.buyargo.com Thats a more recent model, but idea's the same.
