potatos in the tail pipes...

Maybe you won't have to worry about the draft or college for the kids...

Big story in Toronto (I think) this week: mom started the van (non remotely, but still left it idling in the driveway), put junior in his car seat, then ran into the house to get one more thing. Came outside in time to see her van driving away.

Apparently, thieves prowl neighbourhoods that are full of idling cars each morning.

Thief crashed the van a couple of blocks away (it was snowy), and so jumped a Hummer that was idling in someone else's driveway to continue on his way.

Junior was unhurt. (But he may yet be drafted.)

boss alert...
 

This all sounds like it's the American way...
