As her shoes were ripped off her feet she lost 4 toes in all of 3 seconds. But not two toes on each foot. No. 3 on one foot and one on the other. BOTH Big Toes which made her tile forward when she walked from then on. You can replace thumbs with toes but not the reverse which makes NO sense to me. Imagine my cousin driving while screaming. Two toddlers in the back with my now profusely bleeding aunt 'stumpy' screaming. Me in the front seat trying to get out of the rolled down window, screaming and NO ONE thinking that maybe STOPPING the car is a good idea at this point. I swear those toes haunted that car for many a year. You could look down and see the road when he drove it for TWO MORE YEARS. To this day I can't even look at flip flops.

My favorite pasttime is asking random strangers at the gas station to hoss on the little knob that releases the gas tank door, while I am pulling on the door. Or to open the back door and pull up the window with two hands while I'm pushing the button. Its ugly, but I do sort of like having a car I don't have to park in the back 40 and can fix with tape.Shieldmaiden96https://www.blogger.com/profile/04673938377819957295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060614279393262320.post-78639181377713930372010-01-25T12:48:25.424-08:002010-01-25T12:48:25.424-08:00We had a clown car once too.

Slapstick wing mirrors, random squirters, knobs that broke off in your hands, lumpy seats, a variety of unsourceable noises - creaks, burps, rattles. We kept asking if we were being too fussy and demanding - thinking these 'extras' might be necessary - as after all, it got us from A to B - every time. I think the last straw was when the rear view mirror started wobbling with the car. Then we gave the car to a friend. He had it two days before he left it unlocked, it was stolen, driven across the city, clocked by two speed cameras and was burnt out. Dramatic ending for a clown.Molly Potterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16322262170382594290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060614279393262320.post-37687300448188441502010-01-25T12:40:44.711-08:002010-01-25T12:40:44.711-08:00I hit the Mother LOAD of great blogs visiting A Mo...I hit the Mother LOAD of great blogs visiting A Mom on a Spin!!
