Okay I have another one – is it just me though?
During high school a few of my friends and I would go to the mall on Friday nights. (nothing else to do) Anyhoo, we were walking around and I saw this really cute guy, so I started following him. I was kind of making gestures behind his back. (somehow my friends ended up being in front of us – so they were watching). I had on these suede boots with flat soles and was sliding my feet rather than actually “walking”. I don’t know why, but all of the sudden my feet just stopped and I fell down on my knees- in front of the “game room”, in the middle of the mall. The dude was gone and my friends were gone as well. Not one to stay down long – I jumped up and ran to where I last seen my friends. They were hiding behind the wall, laughing hysterically. It really was hilarious. No idea who else may have seen the episode. Ahh, the memories – truly wishing at that time, of being incognito.

I always thought that the incognito was one of those things to check when your car wouldn't start -- before the era of electronic ignitions. You know, the points, condenser and incognito?

No, no, incognitos are used in planes, race cars and motorcycles. Cars had points and condensers in their distribulators.

Incognito= disguised as someone else= not yourself.
