Last night we went out to a seafood restaurant with 3 other couples.
I ordered Flounder oraganata. It was lousy. I love that dish, but I think the chef was a Jiboni or didn't know what or didn't have any spices.
It came with a side of pasta, also very bland.
I did have some escargot. Not a big fan.
Anyway, it was pouring rain, and we had to leave in it. Being a Veteran, The rain doesn't affect me, but my wife moves very slow, so we got drenched.
I got her in the car, and she was trying to buckle the seat belt but was having trouble, so I figured I would put on the dome light. (This is her Jeep Compass)
I reached up for the light button but instead, hit the switch right next to to it which opens the moon roof.
The glass roof opened all the way and it's one of those big moon roofs that goes all the way to the back seat so I assume the people in the back seat can see the moon better.
Well, when it's pouring out, those roofs collect quite a bit of water around the edges and when it opens, it all goes on your head.
Wonderful! and it was one of the very few times I didn't have a hat on, so the water naturally runs off my bald head like Niagara Falls.
And it was 40 degrees, so this was not warm Caribbean water.
My wife was screaming and I quickly reached up to close it. But it was raining so hard that I couldn't see so I kept fiddling with the switches to try to close it.
I never opened that stupid moon roof and don't even know how to close it because there are 6 switches up there, right next to each other and they all have hieroglyphic pictures on them but none of those pictures look like a closing moon roof and maybe if I was an Inca King, I could figure it out.
Remember, I still didn't put on the light.
Eventually, between myself and my wife, we figured it out and the thing closed before I had to put on the bilge pump.
You have to reach up behind the switch and pull it down, but in the pitch dark, with monsoons crashing down in your eyes, after eating a lousy meal, it wasn't easy.
