I tried to throw one of my brothers out of our stationwagon, while my mom was driving in rush hour on the Dan Ryan Expressway.
In my defense, he totally deserved it (or so I thought back then). I was sitting in the front seat with my mom, and Tommy started teasing me. I told him to stop, or I'd come back there and throw him out of the window. He kept it up, so I stealthily jumped from the front seat to the middle, then from the middle to the way back. I had just lowered the back window and was boosting Tommy up and out of the window when my mom noticed what was going on. It really was worth being grounded from the phone for 3 weeks just to see the look of terror on his face.
We refer to this epsiode as the Throw Tommy From the Car meltdown, and someone trots it out every year at the holidays.
