My ex-wife knew I never chose a car for the family unless I could fit my main tuba in the trunk. I remember one afternoon in Fort Worth, Texas, about 14 years ago, my tuba was in the trunk (or we tried to get it in the trunk) of about 15 cars. It surprised me that an Isuzu I-Mark had more room for the tuba than some of the bigger cars. (I drove the I-Mark until I moved to Southeast Asia a few years later.)

Well, every car I've had had to carry my main tuba, too, but sometimes that meant being "creative"...
Like taking the passenger seat out of my '56 VeeDub in college. Plenty of room for my big case, a keg, legroom for the people sitting in the back seat, etc. When I got more flush, I started buying hatchback Saabs. Cavernous rear space, even with the rear seat up and rear shelf in place. Down, the things were like "estate"s.

Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?
