          Root beer geysers

          So I'm at a friends house yesterday waiting for the Chargers to stomp New England when I see another friend dropping a case of root beer soda down the hill. Cans were exploding everywhere. Looked like the Bellagio fountains.I thought this was hysterical...until the cans kept rolling towards my car. Dude *could've* dropped a case of club soda, but no, he had to spray sticky brown stuff all over my car. Spent the first half of the game cleaning it off.

          That sucks *****! Tho I must confess, I would have LOVED to see your face change as you went from laughing to watching the stuff rolling towards you...not so funny

          All the guys there know I'm a freak about keeping my car clean too. I'm just glad I didn't have the windows open.

          How about leaving a can of soda on the floor.... and after driving for 2 hours, the rolling can - now well shaken and warmed- rolls into a sharp corner under the seat.... and now punctured, spraying and rolling.

          An amazing mess. (Seats, windows, roof liner)

          (Wifes car... stuff doesn't roll arond my car.)

          Why is it that the same women who will FREAK OUT if you leave a sock on the floor have no problem eating a bag of chips in their car?
