A lot of the stories I receive involve the crazy things that customers say. Some of the most amusing are found on early bird envelopes.

For instance, Bard Scharle-mann, who works at Automotive Avenues, said he read this on an early bird envelope: "Washer light on dash stays on. I have washed car three times and light still on. Can you help?"

It is these kinds of things that bring a light-hearted moment to our days, and I'd like to hear more of them. In fact, bring on more "early bird" humor. Send them to me at robc@dealersedge.com.
