Cheap Gas

I try to buy my gas on Mondays and Wednesdays, because I have to drive out of Austin near the lake where the price has leveled at $1.95/gallon. Wow...what a deal. Still almost two bucks. Hey it's better than $3. So yesterday I was filling up the tank when a man refueling his Ranger next to me walked up and asked if I would look inside of his ear.

"What?" I said.
"Would you please look inside my ear."
Me staring.
"I felt something fly inside my ear, and I think it's still there."
"Oh."
"Could you look to see if it is still there?"
Me cautiously looking around to the side of his head. Should I grab hold of his head and turn it toward the light? Should I stick my finger in there to find out what was buzzing around. Does this guy do this to pick up young boys off the street?
"Nope, all clear."
"Awhh, I guess it musta flewn away."
"Yep."
"Thanks Mister."

It really is a predicament. You can't see inside of your own ear. Glad I could be of assistance.
