So, I bought one of those compressed-air duster things for my laptop computer. You know 'em - air and a propellant inside a can with a little nozzle. Well, my laptop keyboard took exactly 12 seconds to clean quite thoroughly, and I had a lot of can left, so I decided to dust off a few of the model cars on my bookshelves while I was at it.

Well, if you've ever used one of those things, you know that sometimes they squirt out a little blast of propellant or whatever. I don't know what it is, but it gets really cold really fast and usually forms a little blast of frost on whatever surface you're dusting. The can gets really cold, too.

So, I get to my 1:18-scale xB, and I'm blasting dust off the tiny plastic dashboard, and I tilt the can wrong, and it goes "BOOSH" and squirts out all this propellant crap. I guess the temperature change was too much too quickly, because I hear this CRACK! noise from the front of the model.

And in disbelief, I turn over my toy xB and gasp in horror at the front...

...where the tiny toy windshield had split down the middle.

And my first thought was "I HAVE TO TELL THIS STORY ON SCIONLIFE!"

WOW! Cracked windshield just like the big ones get! Now it's a real-life replica...

^^ Hopefully my real-life toaster won't match it anytime soon. @_@ 30K and still on Windshield #1...

Hey, can you define irony for me?!?

Have you ever gotten into a compressed air fight? It's all fun until frostbite sets in.

Will your insurance cover the repair?---What is the deductible? LOL

That's classic...Imagine That... an xB with a cracked windshield...lol.

Now you gotta try to crack your big car's glass to match it.

...maybe you can run it through a nearby carwash, and see if they'll take responsibility for the damage!
