Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Stupid Driver Tricks
Seen on the road this morning: a driver swerving in his lane because he was looking in the rearview mirror and styling his hair. With both hands. In a Jeep with the top off.

Must be a tourist. It's easy to recognize tourists on Maui as most of them drive either Jeeps or Mustang convertibles.
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Re: Stupid Driver Tricks
I'd take the Jeep, then it would be like I was home. But with less land and more water. And elevation changes. And cooler temps. Now that I think of it, the Jeep would be much newer than mine (I have a TJ vs the JK), so it would be completely different in every aspect, minus the name. But, I'd still take the Jeep!hobie16 wrote:Must be a tourist. It's easy to recognize tourists on Maui as most of them drive either Jeeps or Mustang convertibles.

Re: Stupid Driver Tricks
Last time I stayed in Lahaina, we did get a Jeep for a day. It was specifically so we could see what was beyond the road to Hana. Yes, there was a fee/penalty for taking it off-roading, but it was totally worth it.
My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?
