God I wish we could post pictures.

I was in one of my local CVS stores. Some genius invented something he called a "Really Useful Box" It is a small, plastic box that could hold rubber bands, the worlds smallest vibrator or flogger... and oh so much more. Why I didn't invent this shames me to the point of grave despondency.

Remember the pet rock? Or was that before your time?

Ahhh Fred. I buried him in the back yard after he died. *sniff* I have fond memories of playing with him. I taught him tricks, took him for long walks, I almost had him able to fetch anything I needed when that fateful night when my father ran over him with the car.

His coffin was the gray cardboard box with the little tuft of hay.

Status: offline 		Did any of you ever see the box that turned itself off ? It was made of black plastic. There was a switch on the top of it that you flipped and the box began to buzz and vibrate and make little noises to itself. Then a small plastic hand would shoot out of a little trapdoor in the top and flip the switch off and the hand would then disappear again. That was all it did. It must have put millions of switch-flippers out of work.

Status: offline 		VERY similar to the one I saw DocStrange. That one had a white, plastic hand though and took maybe a half minute or so for the hand to come out and switch itself off. Thanks a lot though. I think saraah thought I was pulling her leg when I told her about the one I saw all those years ago.

I disagree - I know several Veterans that have leg injuries that use those wheels. They extend only when the bike is stopped. A Trike or a Side Car don't actually ride like a motorcycle. They're actually the worst of a car and motorcycle combined.

I don't expect people to give up something they enjoy when there are solutions such as this available.

Chop-O-Matic
Veg-O-Matic
Dial-O-Matic
Ronco Pocket Fisherman (and I still own one of these)
Giant Dehydrator/Beef Jerkey Machine
Electric Pasta Maker
Showtime Rotisserie & BBQ
5 in1 Turkey Fryer & Food Cooking System

If you need some extra stability, put a damn side car on the damn thing.

That would give you less stability except when parked.
