Neb Punsweed, Gas station clerk


Earl and I are making a screenplay about a lovable rural gas station clerk and his adventures. Tell me what are some of your most memorable gas station experiences?

Did you ever have a perfect stranger buy you a feather rose from the bin next to the rotating hot leather pouches stuffed with cholesterol and sodium they call polish sausages?

Stories about barf?

Methods of maximizing Slurpee volume?

Opening the door to the single-toilet bathroom to be surprised by an even more surprisingly chatty fellow?

Ultimate snack combinations (e.g. Ranch Corn Nuts with Diet Dr. Pepper)?

Any manner of gas station experience you share with me might be made into our blockbuster, and you will be compensated with a ticket to the premiere and some popcorn.

That is a great Idea. There hasn't ever been a successful movie about a gas station. I think you are on to something. I like the mention of the wolf T-shirts that you can buy at the stations. didn't you have one of those
