....that one of the selling points of a number of new cars is the push-button start. Why not put it on the floor so you don't damage a nail?
My bad...........they did that in the 30's........

My new car has that feature.Didn't influence my purchase and it took a little getting used to.
Now my "key"is clipped on a little hook in my handbag and I am never searching for keys.
I throw my handbag onto the back seat and away I go.
Never thought about my manicure though...

I don't think it's funny, see i don't understand why the cars can't just go around me. I mean if i went any futher off the road, i'd be in the creek. Theres buses making stops along that road taking up more space and stopped for much longer time everyday. I was as far off to the side as i can get and getting off the road when possible to let tha cars pass.
I understand people have places to be, but to call the police, if thats what really happened over being inconvienced 2 minutes? just seems hard to wrap my mind around. And the hospital that backs up the cop's story about me blocking traffic from the middle of the road, now says i smoke, drink and do drugs. I'm not sure if they are disapointed that i don't and want me to, or think i do and want me to admit it. Would it be easyer if i did just admit it, or would it lead to trapping me into another chain of lies.
I might ask the city for bike trails, but they can't seem to even bother to fix the roads for cars. What looks like pothole are actually crators, you can destroy a car misjudging one. I now have a busted windshield wrecking into one of those road crators, and my car is steering weird. Must had bent something from the force of the crash. That was a nightmare as i was sick anyway on my way to the hospital.
Take care of your nails One Time, be very carefull not to break them. I just cut my short because theres no way around here, theres breaking a finger, arm, or leg to think about.

Difficult to find a 'push button' start in there anywhere Joanie.

The 30s one probably ruined the pedicure.

the button is on the back bumper, just get a strong friend to push it while you resease the clutch in 2ed gear with the key turned on, it will start.

Careful of the manicure then - both of you.

No.......they were so stout, you had to use the ball of your foot, and, unless you were from Oklahoma, you would be wearing shoes.........

Just a thought here.....If joanie can go so far off-topic on something as trivial as
a push button starter, is it any wonder the authoritites want to know what drugs
are being used?

Similar thoughts regarding those toilet cisterns with the push buttons flush (pardon the pun) with the top. Am I the only woman on the planet who has to use my knuckle to flush?
