Cousin cousin

Tuesday, December 18, 2012

There is a tractor dealership nearby, run by a man they call cousin cousin Chad. He regularly does ads on the radio and always refers to himself as cousin cousin Chad.

I don't know why it is "cousin cousin."

In my family we frequently say the title of cousin before a cousins name, so I get the cousin part but this is cousin cousin. Because of the double cousin influence from Chad we do call one cousin- cousin cousin Jason. I have no idea why it has stuck for him in particular.

The other week I went with dad and Andrew to the farm show and we stopped by the shiny machines that Enlow tractor brought and talked to none other than cousin cousin Chad himself.

My dad is the one that knows him and did the talking. But I did hang around and peer at the legendary cousin cousin Chad over dads shoulder.

I really wanted to ask him about his name but I was scared. Story of my life. One of these days I will be able to tell you about something brave that I did. So for now we are left with a mystery. I did get to meet him though, which kind of my day.
