Here is a story I heard...no claim as to it's truth, however.

FP softball game is in the 17th inning. It is a night game in a hot and humid climate. Female UIC approaches the female PU in between innings with water and says; "I haven't seen you drink any water for a few innings, please drink something." PU responds; "I have to pee so bad, I can't drink anything."

UIC response; "You're wearing the navy pants today...just go. That's what the guys do!"

Ummm, no they don't. At least not this guy, and I'm 55 years old.

Ok, notwithstanding the fact that this "partner" is a jerk, I'm having a hard time visualizing how someone uses a tire as a urinal...

Not enough coffee perhaps. I was visualizing someone pissing into a tire hanging from a rope. Hell, if all he was doing was pissing against his car tire, what's wrong with that?

When they give us locker rooms, we'll stop pissing on car tires.
