Tossed my Xikar out the Truck window today.

[RGD.]

And I blame my doctor for it.

Sitting in traffic this morning that's moving about 10-15 mph. I keep my Xikar in the door panel pocket of the truck for handy use. So this morning I grab my cigar in my right hand as normal, take the Xikar in my left and snip the end. I then toss the clipping out the window from atop the Xikar and slide it back in the door pocket.

Except for this morning.

I tossed everything out the window pretty as could be right in the middle of I-495.

Damn right I stopped. Opened the door and walked back to pick it up by the car behind me. The guy rolled his window down laughing and said "having one of those mornings?" "Damn decaf" I said. So yeah - I blame my doctor since he is the one who makes me drink that stuff.

Damn decaf.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha! Tossed mine into a trashcan on the street one time, doing just the same thing you did. Glad you got it back, and glad I'm not the only idiot out there.


And yes, damn straight I went dumpster-diving! :r

I never lost my cutter out the window, but I went to ash out the window on a trip home from school and the wind from a passing truck too the remaining half of my cigar with it once.


I did not stop

[longknocker]

At Least You Found It, Ron!:tu I Would Have Stopped, Too!:D

Decaf is an abomination and a sin against Juan Valdez's donkey! Repent!

[J0eybb]

I love this thread at the top of the new posts.... Everytime I see it, I laugh.

[Gophernut]

I just brew a pot of regular into the orange rimmed decaf pot and fool myself. I must have worked so far, as I haven't thrown anything out the window that wasn't supposed to go.
