Another thing that can help reduce static buildup is using fabric softener in your laundry....and now that I think about it, using conditioner in your hair reduces static, too. Skin lotions too....and getting enough liquids in your diet also helps.
No, Brain, this is not an endorsement for drinking and driving!

I read this and busted out laughing....guess at 11:30 pm it's funny. So funny I got the Macaw To laugh along with me!

Wow! Can I tell people that I made a Macaw laugh? I wish I could have heard that.

Hey Macaw, check this out:

A duck walks into a pet store and asks the clerk "got any duck food?"
Clerk: "No, sorry. We got dog food, cat food, horse food, and rabbit food, but no duck food"
The duck replies "OK" and waddles away. The next day the same duck waddles into the same store and asks "got any duck food?"
Clerk: " NO. I told you yesterday; we have no duck food!"
The duck cheerfully says "OK" and waddles away.
The next day, he comes back in and asks the same clerk the same question; "got any duck food?"
Now the clerk is mad. He bellows back "No, dammit! No duck food! And if you come in here and ask me one more time, I'm gonna nail your webbed feet to the floor!
The duck just cheerfully replies "OK" and waddles out.
Now, the next day, that duck waddles cheerfully in, and the clerk is glaring at him. The duck asks, in his usual cheerful tone, "got any nails?"
The clerk is thrown off by this, and just says "no"
The duck quacks back: "got any duck food?"

Yeah I should have shot it. I kep thinking that as the numbers were adding up. It went in to have the valve cover gaskets fixed cuz they've been leaking oil for about 6 months...I just kept ignoring it. I also kept ignoring this "noise" coming from from passenger front wheel area.
And I said as long as you have the van can you change the wipers for me, and see if you can figure out why the steering is so poor.

This breaking lead to that breaking and that breaking led to stress on this and making those break and as long as it's ripped apart and we know this is bad it should be fixed if you are fixing everything else. OMG

Well it drives nice now.....it better.....

Re: What do you do if your car shocks you?

I usually cuss and wave my hand around, sometime put my finger in my mouth.

But when It don't shock me, I get worried, and make sure I know where the jumper cables are. I actually had to replace the battery, shortly after noticing no shocks, once.
I am impressed with many of the replys here though, Good work! and thanks!

Re: What do you do if your car shocks you?

ME ME ME, I have the answer.
Getting shocked when getting out of you car means the electrical charge in your body is too high. Here's how to fix it quick lol.

Get yourself two (2) 9volt batteries, make sure they are fully charged or it won't work.
Put the two batteries on the table side by side so the contacts are facing up. As you can see they have a male and female connector on top. Here's the trick, align the contacts so on battery 1 the male contact is forward top and on battery 2 the female contact is forward top, the bottom row would be female and male, ok now tape the batteries together side by side so the four contacts are facing up.

Now it's time to equalize the the charge in your body with the batteries, you see the batteries will cancel out the static energy in your body, cool isn't it

Everyone knows water is a conductor of electricity so, you guessed it, your tongue is the connection.

Just put the 2 batteries (contacts down) on your tongue and give it about 5 seconds and your done

Don't worry you won't get shocked because the batteries are taped in reverse polarity. See that's the trick. Give it a try and let me know what happens

-------------------------------------

What I do is put my hand on the metal of the door, get out then close the door, works for me.
The tip I gave above was just in fun, Don't Try It.
