Those ducks would be hot once they got there.
I recall a demo in science class where the teacher shot an aluminum ring into the ceiling and a demo on induction, magnetism and so on. That ring what hot when it came down.
Maybe a duck, not being ring shaped, wouldn't do that, though, as that ring actually built up a nice electric current in it at the same time it was shot up.
For some reason this is reminding me of a discussion on African swallows and coconuts.

It's just like at a urinal. Only when you're next to someone do you say "nice watch."

In UT, the Jeep Wave is mostly ignored. So many, and so many rentals in certain areas.

I waved to 4 obvious off-roaders (and not rentals) in Moab and got zero waves.

Around here (South Florida) the wave is alive and well....and it keeps you busy because Jeeps are effing everywhere. I swear there's two at every stop light.

No bs, I found a coconut floating in Long Island sound once, no swallows to be found.

I wave, when I see you. Sometimes I miss it. Most of the time I wave with my hand backwards and the palm towards me - the opposite of the peace sign. Most people don't get it, still makes me smile inside.
(No, Shadows I am not an archer; I just borrowed it from them.)

Too many around me to be worthwhile. One of the first intersections in my neighborhood I came to after picking up the Gladiator from the dealer had SEVEN other Wranglers/Gladiators at it. I'll wave back if I notice someone waving at me, but I don't really even look for it, so I probably miss a bunch.

If I'm out on a trail, I wave at everyone - but then it's not exclusive to Jeeps. If someone's out there doing something cool with their clapped out old Subaru - respect.

If I'm thinking about it I wave every wrangler or gladiator, or any other Jeep product that waves at me.

I used to have a C5 corvette and a wrangler. Corvette owners wave as well. I'd constantly get weird looks when I would wave at jeeps driving the corvette or wave at corvettes while driving the jeep.

Almost like the guy in one of the AMC Eagle pages saying he came out to find............. A duck in his door handle. Had to explain it to him - the Eagle is part Jeep.

So I drive a four lane road a lot. It’s nice to see a wave every once in a while but when I’m in the far right and the other jeep is far left should there be waveage?
I'm in MontCo and would wave if I happened to see you in the far right lane on the other side of the highway if I wasn't trying to navigate bumper to bumper rush hour traffic.

I wave at most of the wranglers and gladiators. I think it’s probably about a 50% wave back around here. Wave. Don’t wave not really a big deal I’ll keep waving.
