Fiance's encounter with a big stick
 

...I thought that would get you all in here...

She drives a 93 SE. Last weekend, as I was driving up to her place, I noticed something hanging from the bottom middle of the car. I told her about it, she siad her dad would get it. Today she was driving to school (she's a kindergarten teacher) and the car made a horrible dragging noise the whole way there and back. When she got to school (the whole 3 block drive) she looked under, saw the large stick, and tried to dislodge it with her ice scraper, as her arms aren't long enought to reach it (she's 5'3"), unsuccessfully. Drove home after work and her dad got it out.

She told me to let you all know about her experience with a big stick while I was away.

I guess the "walking tall" part of the "walk tall and carry a big stick" routine won't work for her?

:lol:

Don't tell her I said that.

Booooo!! Leave the jokes to the pros, Will... :jester:

Now the question

HOW DID THIS BIG STICK GET UNDER THERE.


Hmmmm... hehe

It's a shame she didn't have some chewing gum and some aluminum foil- she could have McGuyver'd it. That guy could fix anything.

You forgot about the duct tape and the watch ( don't need a stick since it was already under the car), Geez, some people. lol

But back to the topic, hehe

How did that stick get under there?

I'm sure she absentmindedly drove over the stick.

You abused the poor stick. How do you think the stick feels??? ;)

Oh the things that man does........
Come to think of it... I can't remember anything he did exactly... I remember chewing gum... watches ... string and misc metal parts and mirrors... :wink:


Back on topic... any idea how the stick got there?
Did she run over a tree and not notice? :wink:

Umm, what's up w/ the whip in the avatar :naughty: ??!!

U'm yea big stick, did we figure out where it came from yet? :D (hey I stayed on topic, sorta) :wink:

No idea where it came from.

Hmm, I'm willing to bet that the stick originally came from a tree. :P

How many more posts can we talk about a stick?! :D

We need pictures of said stick so we can investigate further....

From a tree? Hmm, I guess maybe. Coulda been a shrub... Where else can sticks come from? :wink:

i think trees 2

I think the dog carried it off. If it helps, it's a small dog that was dragging the stick in a similar manner as the car was.

Just like the car, huh? You mean the stick was caught on the dog's underside without its knowledge, and was dragging along the pavement as the dog ran down the road??? :lol: Now *that* I'd like to have seen....

I have a feeling that if it keeps going the way it is talking about the stick, this post will get moved into the lounge, hehe.

It might have been Buford Pusser's stick. The Rock may have lost it going down the road and your fiance may have found it. There could be a reward for it.

Instead of hanging from the middle of the dog, the stick was hanging from its mouth.

Sounds like you need skid plates for the bottom of the car if the wife is going to keep 4x4ing in it. Maybe light weight aluminum sections so you can get access when you need too :wink:

I was expecting a totally different topic than what it was really about. :oops:

Nikki thinks it's a riot...

It could've fell out of the back of one of those "tree cutting trucks". Maybe! :wink:

Through my top secret sources, I have identified two of the possible suspects... 8)

I'll get that tree truck, and its little dog, too... hahaha!

Soooo, how's the search going for the tree truck and it's little dog? Just wondering! :wink:

It's probably not going so well since the dog marks a tree and they cut it down. I would just chalk it up to an "ooopsie"

An "ooopsie", what kind of language is that? Is that a Mississippi thang? :wink:

no, its a girl thing.

:shock: :roll: :D
