My college roommate and I were moving. So we packed everything possible onto the back of his father's plumbing truck. Oops-- he forgot to put on his mom's antique rocker as he had put it aside for safekeeping during the loading.

Scott climbed on top of the load, found a good "hole" to put the rocker in, and I handed it up to him. After he put it on top of the load I said "it's never going to stay on there while we are driving." He said: "yes it will."

At 45 mph down a 4 lane road, at night, we heard a noise. I looked in the passenger rear view mirror and saw the rocker, sitting upright, in the traffic lane. No traffic coming as it was all being held at a stoplight some distance away. Ahhhh! We must go back and get it.

Scott made a lumbering U-turn in the loaded plumbing truck. The light had changed and traffic was again flowing. That's when we saw one of the headlights of an oncoming car go out. Ooops.

I bet it was fun explaining that to the insurance company.

They don't have matching vests. How wrong is that?

I thought it was a parade float at first glance.

You are right. That's the generator to run the two Hammond Organs those guys are playing.

They've got enough traffic backed up behind them to make it a parade.

Maybe not the place to put this, but I find it funny. It's brilliant, and not malicous or dangerous.

I'm sure you would get pulled over, not to mention people trying to get your attention.

I used to get rid of tailgaters in my old diesel by downshifting and billowing a cloud of soot at them. Always worked well

That's funny. :D I once came home with a pickup load of seafood compost, which is exactly what it sounds like. I drove 70 miles up the interstate, and everybody kept their distance. I found that the same thing happens when I take my pigs to the slaughterhouse.

As a kid we used to haul seaweed to the garden for fertilizer. That plus cow manure yielded some excellent gardens for my mom. We hauled the seaweed in the pickup from our beach which mounded seaweed about a foot thick. So it was easy pickins.
