You ever been in an enclosed space with a 13 year old girl. They won't shut up. I don't think there is a jury in the world that will convict if there is one parent on the panel

Everyone knows those wire hangers are durable enough. I wouldn't see any reason for a jury to convict in the first place.

Y'all just don't unnerstand phisiks. Wire coat hangers from Walmart are purdy strong.

The drag factor probably really cuts down on your gas mileage.
