Two weeks ago, I was driving on I15 through Barstow. On my right was a very
large woman with a cat between her bosoms. He was really in there, and just
to make sure he/she/it stayed there, the shoulder strap was across them
both.

I would give a days pay to see that crash with the seat belt going taut, 400
pounds going from 70 to zero in 50 milliseconds, and airbag deployment.

Too bad the driver survived. He'll probably get out of jail and continue to
endanger everyone around him till he dies, or they throw away the key.

Had to scratch my head a bit over that one. The Darwin nominees have to
remove themselves from this world in order to be considered, but the victim
wasn't an active part of the stupidity, just a passive one. The idiot was
the driver, but then again, you'd have to be an idiot to ride in the window
of the passenger door while doing donuts, therefore the source of my
quandary.

Well, technically, they just have to remove themselves from passing on
their genes in the future.

Hmmmm. Right in my own backyard even. I bet Christopher didn't look too

I remember a number of years back of a story in the paper
where the high school kids were out playing that sort of
game -- driving down the road, here was this cute chick
walking along the side - passenger reaches out and whacks
her on the butt as they go by --- left her with a almost
permanent hand print on her butt and him with a broken
arm. What a shame (his arm that is) :-)

A guy who worked for me several years ago said he reached out the
passenger window one time and slapped a bicycle guy on the back.. he
said after he thought it broke his arm (sore/bruised for a long time),
said it took bicycle guy off his bike pretty clean..

I must admit that on a couple of occasions in my mis-spent youth I have held
out my gloved hand when passing morons in cars who have pulled out in front
of, or carved up me on my motor bike. The drivers side mirrors shear off very
cleanly and make a satisfying bang. Didn't cause any problems for that class
of drivers, since they don't tend to use mirrors anyway :-|.

Had a long neck (beer bottle) miss me by an inch or two. Driver
escaped with both rear tires flattened at 975fps. Im sure those two
wheels were toast by the time he was far enough away to feel safe and
clean out the **** in the passenger seat. He also didnt have a side
mirror on the passenger side..least not a usable one. Ive always
wondered what their parents said about that .45 hole in the side
mirror.

I had occasion to lock mirrors on time with a car travelling the
other way on a twisty road. She was over the line, I was near it
but completely on my side. Her driver side mirror connected
with my truck's driver side mirror.

The bang was impressive, and because my window was open at the
time, when the mirror swivelled around on its mount and exploded,
all the glass blew right in front of my face and landed in the
passenger footwell - I got nary a scratch.

I think her jaguar sedan mirror cost a lot more to replace
than my chevy luv westcoaster.

It *might* have been an accident, that beer bottle.

Of course, he'll be a lot more careful about accidents
after that.

From the jeering and catcalling as they went by..it was no accident.
They were nice enough to slow down to get a good look as I went prone.
They thought they had nailed me.

I have a hard time imagining folks like that voting at all.

I rode a bicycle during college, used to dream of a .45 under the
saddle for "helpful" people like that and dogs. I did put the 1/2"
Masters padlock & chain to good use on a bull terrier that tried to
bite my ankle. It was effective.

A friend drove a very low sports car and was irkey by drivers who failed
to lower the hi-beams at night, so he would flip his arm out the window
holding a thin green bamboo stick. It always broke the headlight,
occasionally the bamboo, never hurt his arm.
