Tales from the Carpool Line

Many still follow the soap operas, but TV Networks could really draw an audience if they ran - The Carpool Line Tales of Romance, Mystery and Intrigue.

Carpool Line -do you really know what happens outside your school, and where exactly are your children?


The Characters -

Early Bird - this obsessive compulsive parent has to be first in line.  She shows up in her underwear because she didn't have time from getting out of the show and over to the school.  Many a teacher has opened the car door to some nasty sights so she fulfills her promise to her child of "being first out the door."

The Napper - she arrives 30 minutes before the line starts 2nd behind the Early Bird.  When the line starts to move, many other parents have snippets of her dreams, "Oh Darryl you're so manly" as they walk to her car waking her out of her dreams.

The Lovers - two single parents timing their arrival, putting them next to each other as they wait for the line to move.  They look at each other and sigh.  Could the Brady Bunch movie really be part of their future - could they melt their families together?  And the biggest question, who's going to get out of their car first making the first move?

Nazi Driver - this wench pulls into the carpool line, quickly swerving through parked cars butting in line getting ahead of everyone else.  What she is not ready for is the parents that get out of their car having trouble with her excuse that she had a violin lesson in 30 minutes.  The ensuing brawl send a few of the waiting children directly into therapy.

Get Outta My Way - This is the 6 foot tall Monster Truck, darkened windows so no one knows who or what is inside and a big "Jihad This" sticker running along the window in the back of the truck.  Amazingly all parents move to the side to let this car go first.  Could they be behind the spray painting of curse words in the school from the night before - is that a Jihad?

Mom on the Run - this is the Mom that shows up skidding to a stop JUST before they children move to the front of the school in the "My Mom's Late Walk Of Shame."  The door to her car slides open, a few Happy Meal toys fall out as she's singing along with "The Devil Went Down to Georgia."  Will she finally make it on time?  What will her children do when they sit in front of the office for over 15 minutes.

Follow the Carpool line as their tales of Love, Lust and Murder unfold.  Who exactly is putting all the beer cans in the Can Do Recycling Trailer?  How much will the school lose if they decide on rehab?  How will the teachers cope with the line of children waiting, the new K students throwing up on their shoes from nervousness?  Can they talk the Jihad This parent down from their six foot car.  And what will happen to our lovers, will their cars accidentially bump into each other and the romance of a lifetime result?  Carpool Line is full of love, laughter and lust as we move through the perils of the school year.

Not getting enough of the Carpool line?  Coming this summer - Summer Camp Drama, a new show of drama between the two oak trees.  A little bit of "One time at bandcamp" with a who lot of, "I just can't leave him here at camp crying like that," Summer Camp like Carpool Line will have you laughing, crying or jumping in your car because you are late picking your child up from school.

The Teachers - can they handle sending out over 100 children, will they be thrown up on by the scared Kindergartenders?

The School - office workers realizing a car pool rider was accientially put on the bus.  Looking for that child hiding in the afterschool room hoarding all of their snacks.  Dealing with complaining parents because Napper didn't wake up in time and children were late to Violin.
