Pete would have to remortgage his house to pay for all his infractions :poke:

A little excessive much? At least Eating a Frosty isn't on that list! yummy...

I was going to ask if driving with my knees would still be ok? I am a pro at that.

You have seen pics of me driving around before right? Thats how it always is.

:roll: Kansas.......

The only thing I can't do with my knees is hard turns. even then I can get the wheel where I want it, then hold with my knee, then let go, and it goes back to center.

With your kids in the car?!?!?!?!?!

yeah??? they have seat belts. When my dad was doing it, we were just running around loose all over the car.

Shit I remember my Dad having a 280z, and doing 100mph all casual down I -70, listening to the B 52s, and he was chilling steering with his knee.

We were loose, too. My sisters and i used to try to "surf" at the back of the van. We'd see who could stay standing over bumpy roads the longest. Good times.

I get bored driving. I windexed my front, and side windows, and armoralled the dash once while commuting.

We weren't loose in the car, but during the summer, we'd go the the creek which is like 2 miles from the house. My brother and I would just jump in the bed of the truck. Never a cop in sight on those back roads.
