Glue the pins on, and then let the kids sniff the glue. You know they're going to anyway, so you might as well let them do it under your supervision, right? I think this is one of the worst useless derailments of a tech most I've seen in a long time.
Nice looking dress up idea. Nope it may not be for everyone especially if you are paranoid but for those of us who aren't it dresses up a rather plain set of seat belts. I like that style of latch a lot better than the push ****on kind too. Have similar ones in the 71 and it is easy to get out of without a h***le.
Great idea! Now you just need to follow it with another tech thread on how to tape a pair of crocs onto a kid's hands. From here it makes a lot more sense than kid-proofing the world adults live in too.
um, . . . yeah, I got 4 of em' also. and they don't live in bubbles. they actually get dirty and s****e their knees riding their bikes. my opinion was the same before I had em' and will continue to be the same. but to comment on the original posting. the belts do look nice. maybe I'll go one step further on my belts to make it "safe". I'll put edible logos on mine. FINALLY A COMPROMISE!!!!!!!
hey pat,,,hope you're recovering ok from your accident... great idea,,,,you should know by now that almost anything posted here will get nitpicked,,,,, kids can choke on LOTS of other things in a car,,, cant believe some of the drama here sometimes,,,,,really
apparently my kids aren't made of the same "elastic man properties" as some kids. they can't chew on the seatbelt buckle when they're buckled in. and they're always buckled in when the ride in my car. And I don't let the "amazing pretzel boy" ride with me anymore, just for that reason.
Here's the solution. Before breaking the pins off the back, get a small hammer and drive the Impala hat pins into the forehead of each child in your family. This will teach them the evils of Impala hat pins. Then mount them as per picture. Now, when your kids jump in the car, the will look at one another and scream "LOOK OUT, those are those dangerous Impala hat pins, DO NOT put them near your mouth". Problem solved. Any other child rearing questions, just let me know, always glad to help. Thanks, Lyman.
Man do I apologize for my "gnaw" comment. You see, I don't really understand children, I never was a child, I do realize that they are an important part of the food chain, however. According to MENSA I was raised by wolves. Thus, my views and opinions may seem harsh and impertinent to those with non-lupinian parental role models. And for this I deeply offer my most humble apology. It does seem like a good idea to keep an eye on what the little tots consume though.
also known as the jimmy shine shift knob right? anyways, kudos this was an awesome thread for all the wrong reasons. i needed the laugh though. atleast theyre eating domestic hat pins, it's a plus these days.
Good idea Pat!It's nice to see that you can still hotrod while recovering.Just please don't lean over and chew on the p***enger side buckle while driving!And DON'T DROP YOUR HAT!!
