When Carolyn and Charlie first started dating, I asked Charlie what he did for a living. He replied with, "Well, like all the other Texans, I'm in gas and oil." Little did I know, he had actually been working in at his his father's Texaco station. I asked him how far he was into gas and oil and he responded by saying that he was in "about up to his elbows."
