The loan officer told him that the bank would need some form of security for the loan, so the redneck handed over the keys to a new Ferrari. The car was parked on the street in front of the bank.

After a few hellacious deals through my first full Summer as a Realtor, I was blessed with the opportunity to represent a coworker of my Husbands and one of Dallas' Finest in her purchase of her own home.
