Cars where the windows can be rolled down are getting harder to find.
My vans (both of them) have those stupid power windows that won't operate
unless the car is running. Oh, and the back windows don't open at all
(well, OK, they open a couple of inches for ventilation).
Hi
How many times do you think a person
drives there car into the water and then
remembers to turn the ignition off?

then three out of four or even four out of four windows are disabled until
he remembers to unlock them. I don't carry a center punch but I should.

How many supersized Americans can fit through a fully opened car window
these days?

The solution is simple, fill every available void in the car with
styrofoam so the thing floats.

It's not just that Americans are being supersized, the cars (and their
windows) are shrinking rapidly. BTW I watched 'SuperSize Me' last night,
EVERYBODY such see this film and see what the fast food really does to the
human body.

An Edmonton teacher has shown that you can *lose* weight while eating nothing
but McDonald's food:

Yes, but the key there was his exercise regimen (which was well-conceived).
It really proves that if you burn what's coming in, you're in good shape.
It's just that MickeyD's has so much energy-dense content as to require a lot
of exertion to burn it.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go get a Sausage Egg McGriddle. ;)
