Holy tamale; I was just a tad queasy!!!)



Anyway, I often disgraced myself; didn't always get to the window of neighbor's car in time...



Back to playtime: We also went out to play and came home when it got dark. Nobody worried about kidnapping or molesters back then. Maybe they existed, but we never heard about them.



Sigh!

Try taking a capsule of ginger powder before starting

said motion. Won't make you sleepy either. Safe

to drive with.

Thanks, Todd -- I've tried ginger, wrist bands, marezine (I don't take dramamine), & on & on.

Guess I'm just one of those folks who didn't get the standard issue semi-circular canals in the ear.
