[Shotimes] CDs

[Mark Matthews]

Hey all, 

I had the strangest thing happen today. I sometimes put a CD on top of
the ashtray cover while I'm driving as I'm retrieving another one to
play. At least 3 times CDs have disappeared without a trace after I put
them there. I thought they had fallen down under the seat when I made a
turn or something because I would hear a noise and then they were gone.
Turns out they were sliding between the ashtray cover and the cassette
holder into the nether regions of the console. I never saw it happen and
it was freaking me out that I couldn't find certain CDs. For some reason
today I removed the ashtray, because another CD ended up in the twilight
zone, and there they all were smiling up at me. I did some fancy
maneuvering with some safety wire and mechanical fingers and managed to
get all five of them out the same way they fell in. Plus I notice a
whole bunch of cigarette butts, matches and ashes as if someone had used
the ashtray without it really being there. Had to do some creative
adapting with my shop vac to suck it all out. What a weird day.
