That article is full of some awesome quotes
That C-note I put in there looked like Larry King after a hot shower and it nearly ripped my hand off when it sucked it in.
"I put a Tanya Tucker tape in the stereo, rared the seat back and took an incredible nap."
"Then the soapy water started up again and scared the oatmeal right out of me."
"I've never been so happy to see the five-oh come up behind me," Leonard said. "I tried to ditch my Lipitor and Viagra simply out of habit."
"The way I figure it, I won't need a car wash for at least three years," Leonard said. "It feels good to be ahead of the game."
Seriously, let's sponsor this guy to totalfark.

This article is in a weird spot where it's too good to be true, but not quite good enough to be false.

I had to check the name of the paper to make sure it wasn't the Onion after I read that.
It was amusing, but after I got done smiling I called shenanigans.
Reason: Never seen an automated car wash which will let you punch in the number of cycles.
Never seen one that doesn't require you to move foreword and exit after the cycle. They shut down if you don't.
36 hours is over a day and a night, meaning someone would have come to use the car wash and if the guy leaned on his horn, he would have attracted attention.
Also, he'd have to pee furiously after several hours.
Then, there's the change machine itself. Those things will not take $100 bill. Actually, in most cases, you nearly have to force them to take a $5.00.
However, it was a funny story.

True or false I love this story. Also getting a kick since I work at a car wash. It is true when standing in the car wash bay on a busey day wearing hearing protection it does rock you to sleep. Any of you farkers in the rochester ny area come to the irondequoit delta sonic and you may see me fall asleep in the wash and you can laff at me

"I tried to call 911 on my cell phone but forgot the number," Leonard said.
Uh, wut? Sounds lik BS, or satire (as hypothesized above).

Story's clearly a fake, but funny nonetheless.
I eschew automated car washes preferring to wait until the local high school girls are running one as a benefit for something or other.

Well no wonder. If it was a Lagrangian car wash, the car's wave function would have achieved a stable eigenmode while cycling through when its momentum became conserved. The only way the poor guy could have escaped was to introduce a foreign tensor into the gauge covariant.
/at least, that's the rumor spreadin' 'round

When he finally got out of the car wash it was so bright he had to go out and buy some cheap sunglasses.

There's no listing for a Harlan's Car Washing in LaGrange, NC
There's no listing for an Elmore Leonard in LaGrange, NC
There's no Wynona Street in LaGrange, NC
There IS an Echo Drive
Least that's what a quick search turned up. Anyone else?
