and sometimes you're the bug. I had just finished eating lunch Saturday when I heard what sounded like a close by shotgun blast. Out where I live such at that is not unusual, and I looked out the windows, but did not see anyone so I went about my business. When later i went to the garage to get my handicap scooter I found a puddle of green glop under one tire, and it was flat. Further examination revealed I had at sometime run voer something the cut the tire, and after setting a day and a half in the garage it finally let go. It had an inner tube that seemed to have been sticking out the hole from what I could see but finally popped like a balloon. The cut was turned down and it had Slime for Inner Tubes in it, so I had little green splatter for about 5 feet around the tire. Thank goodness, none of it got on Joann's car which was beside it. Enough of the inner tube was sticking out into the hole that I had trouble separating the 2 of them.

Re: Sometimes you're the windshield
It's a good thing you weren't in the garage when it popped or you may have had another mess to clean up!
There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.

Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.
Some days it's not worth chewing through the restraints

Re: Sometimes you're the windshield
It's a good thing you wasn't riding it when it popped, not telling whether it would have been another roll, or just a run through.
