And now there was no doubt that the trees were really moving - moving in and out through one another as if in a complicated country dance. ('And I suppose,' thought Lucy, 'when trees dance, it must be a very, very country dance indeed.')

Hey, if you're gonna trash Pop's pet Ferrari, what better place to do it than on Batman Avenue? It's so right.

Fortunately there were only minor injuries.

Heh heh...I actually saw one that tops that. Corvette rear ended a little nissan pickup in front of a car show put on by a car club hubby and I belonged to back in TX. The Nissan was scraped up---the corvette's front end was tore up terribly...




The male driver hauled A** on foot before the cops arrived.

The tags on the car belonged on a buick.

The car was unregistered.

The car was uninsured.

The car belonged to the female passenger's out-of-town husband who had been storing the car (hence the lack of tags, insurance and registration).

There's times I'd like to be a fly on the wall during a private discussion...and then there's times I'm just as glad I wasn't.

Man...after that, the doggone thing looks more like a Volkswagen!

The most spectacular crash I've ever seen involved a Corvette Stingray. We were driving home from the airport in Spokane, and one passed us going about 100 miles per hour. There's a tight curve you have to go around as you come in on the freeway (Charlene will probably know the one I mean), and the 'Vette didn't make it. We came around the curve to see a man and a woman, looking dazed, still strapped into seats on a naked chassis...the fiberglass body of the car had completely disintegrated!

If that were me, I would fake an injury so as to elicit sympathy instead of rage.

If someone's justifiably angry with you, bear it. It's the right thing to do, and you won't add insult to injury by putting forth false pretenses that you couldn't uphold for long, anyway.

Make him cut his own switch, and if it is too small, let dad cut it for him. :twisted:
