Where I didn't go on Vacation, or Why rental companies stink!

Ok, I was supposed to go to Mississippi and Memphis with my buddies two weeks ago. It was planned for two months and we were really looking forward to it. But what happened instead waas stupidity. We had several different plans for getting there, ultimately deciding on renting a mini-van. We found a company that would rent to 21 and up, which was good, considering that at 22, I am the oldest. So my brother goes to pick it up the day before we leave. The lady at the rental place said "where are you going?", and Dan sadi "Mississippi." She then said "No you're not", seems that they didn't say anything to us about a little device on their cars that after you go about 600 miles will shu down the car and report it as stolen. That would of been fun, being stuck in Arizona somewhere waiting to get picked up by the police for grand theft auto. So instead, we went to the lake, hung otu for a couple of days, grew very ugly beards, and caught a few fish. So I guess it wasn't too bad.
