Six-pack rings or yolks. In thinking about it, my preference is for the term "yolk" as it more accurately embodies the job those little plastic thingies actually perform: prevent members of the pack from straying off.

I'm feeling very enlightened by this video. Time to go back and become more enlightened...

Important recap notes: Smaller tires make you go faster ('cause they turn faster); heavier trucks make you go slower; there is a speed diff between manual and auto transmission; cops keep their tires full so you can't go faster than them on your flat tires; and to be in really good shape, expect 7 minutes to take you a mile.

Could you imagine if there were 2 blondes in that car

OMG........OBVIOUSLY he did NOT marry her for her brains.......and that will most likely come back to haunt him in the future.

I only made it halfway through... Being female and naturally blonde, it embarrassed me to watch...

Ouch...now my heady thingy hurts.

Bonnie would NOT let me go on that long having fun at her expense. And certainly NOT video it.

But I do have my moments.

As long as he can run the mile in 6 minutes, I think he's good....

He can run it slower than that and be safe. He'll be in the next county by the time she calculates how fast she'll need to run in order to catch him.
