Pimp cabs

I was in Chinatown tonight and contemplating my way home. Out of the shadows of H Street appeared something amazing, an Escalade cab. I approached the cabbie and asked if I could have a ride to Adams Morgan. I wasn't afraid of his pimpness. There was some respect, but yet he promptly replied, "Uh, no. This thing takes way too much gas, sweetie." He was implying that he'd require more than one person to make the trip worth his while. I couldn't argue with that. Screw carbon footprints. That'd be one phat ride.

That is too funny... I wonder if he gets more business than the all green cabbies?
