When I went home to Pennsylvania last Spring I
was driving my two nieces somewhere and the oldest one (18) said to me, "How do I get the window down? There's no button." I explained that all she had to do was grab that handle with the little knob and turn it. I guess she had never been in a car without electric windows. How scary. So someone just sent me this email and although I'm sure some of you have seen this before, it bears repeating. I'm old but I'm not that old.
Do you remember?
