On my way to work this morning I saw a car with a full size

No ropes, no straps...just 2 hairy arms sticking out of the windows

Stuff like that amazes me. Yesterday I saw a small car with two
sheets of OSB subfloor on the roof and a guy's hands sticking through
the open sunroof to hold them in place. I had an instantaneous flash
of the guy getting his fingers sheared off when the idiot-buddy
driving stepped on the brakes.


I've seen worse than that, much worse -- 30-something woman driving,
pre-adolescent kid sitting on top of the front seat with his head sticking out
of the sunroof. Roof right at neck level. Caught up with them at a traffic
light and asked the driver to imagine what would happen to her child if she
had to make a sudden stop. She glared at me, but at least she made the kid
climb down.
