I just go out the window.


OK, I'm sorry - I tried to resist but I feel I need to ask . . .

Its not really any of my business . . .

But . . . do you use the window while you're still buckled in? Or (no offense) are you a really a short sorta feller and need to stand up by the window?

And if you are buckled in, do you use the port window or starboard?

Just wonderin' -
Personally I find the air at altitude disturbingly cold. You know, like a cold shower?!?

I suspect that you are not sorry you asked YET...but will be very "shortly" as you really opened this up for a strong backhand volley. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I use the starboard side, and yup I'm still buckled in, and it's not my aim, either!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

This raises another, practical question. What about "corrosion"?

And the other question is, how would you explain it?

One of my friends is paralyzed from waist down. Some years ago he owned a 'Tinkertoy' Porsche, modified so that it could be driven by hand control or by regular foot control.

He and I were traveling on a cross-country trip - I was driving. Glen said he had to 'take a leak'. Since we were in the desert I asked if he could hold it for another fifteen miles or so to the next gas station.

Glen said, 'Don't worry about it. Just slow down a bit."

I did. He cracked open his door and, at sixty miles-per-hour, emptied his colostomy bag...

In my rear view mirror I noticed that the car behind us had on his windshield wipers......

Dennis,

How did this thread go from selling a beloved member of the family to dumping crap on the highway from a moving Porsche?
