After rolling my car hotlapping the streets of willow, and seeing what was
left of the roof,
I wouldn't want to run a convertible without a roll bar.

Requires RealAudio/Video player or JetAudio.
Unfortunately my parents were visiting the next day and I'd have to explain
to them what happened to my car.
Fortunately they never saw the wreck.
