Helpful tips and ideas

I always like to pass on clever ideas and tips that I pick up from my fellow trailer folk. Sometimes when I take the family for entertainment (tractor pulls, demolition derbies) the bleachers where we sit have no cupholders like in the movie theater. In the south we're known for our hospitality and I've found that often by buying popcorn or a hamburger for the person sitting next to you, they will in turn hold your cup for you.

Now those are some mighty cup holders! Biggie size me!
Now I understand why foundation garmets are sold in cup sizes. Gee---what we Northeners don't know!

These are the kind of seats I'm referring to. There's just no room in these things.

Those same cup holders prevented this girl from getting a job as a NASCAR pit crew member!

Wide rides

That shot of the backs of the seats remind me of the last time I flew coach! I developed a new routine for seat reasignment. When I book online I always try to select an isle seat. If they toss the seat assignments and I get sandwiched between two folks who run that wide I just tell the flight crew, "I paid a full fare ticket for one seat, I only require one seat. I'm not sharing my single seat with those folks, thanks."
I got reassigned a couple of flights ago and noted that when two wide passengers who sat together got up they had very damp shoulders from being in direct contact with each other....yuck . I felt bad for the mechanic who got my original seat between the folks I wouldn't sit between but he was flying on privelege and I paid full fair.
Somebody stop me I think this has turned into a rant
