South algen then yeah
okay gotcha are you able to find the car
insurance for
me and then just out of curiosity I was
kind of standing over here for a little
bit before you noticed me and you put a
cup that was in the center there over on
the driver's side door any reason you
did that there's like a big pink or
purple
cup

beers gotcha what kind of
beers just normal beers just normal
beers like tall beers or just regular
pints

Coors Light or was it an IPA something
fancy light
gotcha again uh you kind of ignored my
question earlier the cup that you moved
from the center over to the side there

that obviously it looks suspicious when
I see
at is there something in there that you
shouldn't have when you're driving a
car no
