Our windshield is a bug magnet

I'm actually devising a special polymer that can be applied to the front of the hood and glass of a vehicle. I just started and have the perfect marketing campaign. It would contain a commercial on a hot humid night. A car would pull out onto the highway and the camera would zoom into an overweight mosquito flying down the road looking for the perfect target to commit suicide on. It spots the car and heads right for it. The camera zooms in even further to see the action. The mosquito takes aim for the hood and can't get a grip (at this time the announcer says, the Jasonized hood is all good!) and it's legs slide out from underneath him. He slides all the way up the hood trying to gain traction but it's just too slippery due to the special mechanics of my space-age polymer invisible solution. The mosquito then slides all the way off the windshield and lands smack on the front the next car, which of course doesn't have my special treatment. The camera zooms in a little more as the mosquito explodes all over the windshield of the next vehicle, which happens to be a new Z4!

The end.

Sounds like a great commercial - just make sure that the 1st car is an S2000!

I especially like the overweight mosquito - is that the reason he's trying to commit suicide?

It's a magnet for anything. My windshield, after 18 months of driving, looks like the stellar cartography lab on the Starship Enterprise!

Hrrm...

What's the last thing that goes through a bug's mind when it hits the windshield?

His ass.

Did you know that a mosquito hitting the windshield of the average car slows it down by 1/1,000,000 MPH? Someone actually did the math and posted it on the Net, and the sick thing is I followed the math and remembered it! I goota get a life!
