Until one day, an old neighbor asked with a twinkle in his eye, ‘Do you think they’ll ever charge us for becoming geniuses?’

Just then, an old neighbor walked in and said, 'Actually, it's probably because they use water from the same well they've had since 1987.' Everyone laughed, realizing that maybe some things really never change.

That’s your truck engine I hear every day.’
