Two sets, and occasionally cold hands or feet!

Did you kick her out of bed?

Why? Cold feet don't hurt ya...when they're dangled over your
shoulders. Hey, remember the ankle straps over the seatbacks in the
old VW bugs? Time to play "doctor", sweetie.

Been there...done that..repeatedly...Every time I see a Bug...Im told
I get a little misty eyed......sniff.....



All I remember about them was being in one when a semi blew it off
the road when I was 14. It was one of the worst peices of crap I ever
rode in.

My dad had bought it new a few months before, and traded it in on a
'63 Catalina convertible when we got home from that trip.

The early beetles were a bit..underpowered..but by the late
1960s....we were turning them into pretty fast and dependable little
fun cars. Lots of American kids on the Autobahns in Germany managed to
not only keep up with Herr Burgomeister..but leave him behind in a
trail of blue smoke G

Hell..Ive built and driven the **** out of a number of 1800cc and
2100cc bugs that would cruise all day at 90 mph and comfortably.


It was a brand new 1966 bug. We had it less than three months, and I
never wanted to ride in one again let alone drive one.
