For instance this one, in the sentence above, starting with the key terms “stick” and “thing.” I had a car when I was younger than I am now, which had a stick thing. It was kind of a lousy car, but it would still cruise. But enough about cruises. Well almost enough: I went on a cruise once, to Hawaii. Spent most of the time looking out to sea for that big swirling island of plastic trash. Never did find that, but the dolphins were surfing the wake and having a great time, which reminded me of my own surfing when I was younger than I am now, which I was able to get to because of my lousy car with the stick thing.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS"'>Billw, there ya go, thou unbeliever.
