Heidi brings home the coolest gifts!

Those were the times when we dreamt of flying cars

"License, ID and urine sample please, and keep your hands on the wheel!"
"Officer, Sir, how can I get the papers then?"
"I don't care. Keep your hands on the wheel and hand them to me. It's in my book. Otherwise, I taze you."
"You have no tazer, we're in the 50's. And what about the urine sample?"
"Well, I guess then I just could shoot you. I'm just doing my job!"

Must be their reputations :P

Oh, I found something for you both (the ad, not the product):

My lady-friend and both of her furbabies are doing fine. They reached the town they'd been striving for, about a month ago. Here it is:

3. Two of the coolest '57's you got there CMW.

The Bel Air and the Hawk are among my favorite cars of the fifties. Heidi does indeed bring home the coolest gifts! :thumbsup:

11. Will those things work where I live?

Another gizmo idea from the 50s. At least we don't worry about the rain!

Here's hoping this picture stays valid.
