We used to call the old Astros "fishbowls" because of how big the windshield was.

Jumbo,

True story!

Me and the lead driver were at a traffic light stopped at an intersection,can't remeber the town,but it was in California.
Across the street this carload of girls were giggling and pointing at us.We didn't know why at first.
Then he looked over and laughed,I was digging like a fiend in my crotch.
Jock itch dontcha ya know.I was putting on quite a show for those gals.
ops:
