5 Feet of Fury

At last, a taste of big city living comes to Ft. MacMurray

Muslim cab drivers!

I was beginning to notice a little bit of a mohamadan trend with this company when he declared that he could not transport alcohol.  He told me that his religion would not allow it. I told him that my religion wants me to drink beer and be happy; why else did Jesus turn the water into wine.

I explained to him in the most concise terms that I could that we had three options 1) I`m getting my beer and you are going to fulfill your contractual obligation that was entered into when you agreed to drive me and I agreed to pay you as per the terms that the company had agreed to with the airport authority. 2) I phone your dispatcher and explain the situation or 3) you don`t get paid and I`ll hoof it home from here (I travel light, a laptop, a carryon bag with my possibles and a book)

One and two seemed to make him want to wet his pants while three just made him sad. He went for three. Same thing about four other times.
