Yikes. I'm amazed she survived that long, especially without water.

Snowydog: Yikes. I'm amazed she survived that long, especially without water.

it was a dry heat

Snowydog: Yikes. I'm amazed she survived that long, especially without water.

Yeah, isn't there some established limit to how long a person can be expected to survive without water?

I heard on average that it was 3 days, but I could well be wrong there.

/Was this the boot in question?

Depends on external conditions of course, so the 3 day average may not be too far off. It all comes down to how much energy you consume and how exposed you are to dehydration. In a desert, you're farked, but in a mild climate where you stay prone you can survive for at least a week.

Yeah, I guess I'd just be surprised (if the 10 day period turns out to be true) on how much it can vary.

On another note - 10 days, tied up in a car boot. Time would both gain meaning for every agonising minute that drags by and lose meaning as they all drift together.

/not a pleasant imagining, I shall grab another beer and focus on other things...

The Old lady who lives in a shoe sends her sympathy.

Well she obviously wasn't eating either, which means she was likely living off of stored fat reserves, and when your body is burning fat, a byproduce of that chemical reaction is water, which would have extended the survivability point with regard to dehydration.

So don't say being a fat ass never saved anyone.

Who's in the what now?

/I'd have called her "chazzwazzers."

Junk in da trunk!

the_chief & BoronCarbon - thanks for that laugh - in quick succession too!

Helllloooooooo nurse!

Sometimes they're covered in too much vomit to actually put them IN the car.
The trunk/boot will do in a pinch.

Hau, Baas, ek het babalaas!

Did anyone else hear car boot and think of this:

I was really confused on how that happened :-/

dangit! This:



//it's hot

michaeld5:

Yowza.

I switched to a higher octane and over the next couple weeks the knocking got quieter and stopped. The car smelled kind of funny on the new gas but the detailer fixed that. He sure gave me a funny look though when I picked the car up.

I thought knocking boots with a nurse would be awesome.
/had a daydream about it once or twice

Well, I can't blame the guy for killing a nurse or two. I heard he was looking for his little girl Cheryl. By the way, have you seen her?


/Obscure? (Hardly)

Are you sure it wasn't an electric monk?

Sorry but cars do not wear boots. They have tires. This story seems fake to me.

Why does the article say anything about winter temperatues if this is in Austalia? It's summer in the southen hemisphere. It can't be Edinburgh, Scotland because it's dated Dec.29. WTF?

Police should bring in Quentin Tarantino for questioning.

She was discovered in her vehicle in the town of Airdrie, east of Glasgow by British police. i.e. Scotland

Officers smashed the car windows to get to the boot.
If that wasn't a hatchback, the police are doing it wrong.

Could've been another useful item in the trunk.

Well, a lot of times you can get into the trunk by pulling out the back seat. If you don't have the keys to the trunk, it's much easier than trying to pick the lock or using the "jaws of life". Personally, I would have shot the lock open with my service revolver.

Nurses...in MY trunk?

Had she just watched this video on self-defense and wrist control this all could have been avoided.

"Tested in the only laboratory that matters... the streets!" Link

Might just be a nurse in the boot

its called a trunk

That is some funny shiat.

You hear something?

"There's a snake nurse in my boot!"

It's time for another round of British words that mean something different in America:

Britain: To America:
Boot = Trunk
Bonnet = Hood
Hood = Folding soft top (on a convertible)

...and there you have it.

i think maybe it is supposed to loop around. like this...

Boot = Trunk
Bonnet = Hood
Hood = Folding soft top (on a convertible)
Folding soft top (on a convertible) = Boot

Wellies, I think...

what do you do if you wake up and hear a woman screaming in your trunk ?

hit her with the shovel again.

How do you get a nurse in the boot ?
A little vodka and lots of vaseline.
