Definitions
noun
1
An ambulance.
The 1st time I woke up I hit the snooze button, the 2nd I got out of bed, the third time was in the back of an ambulance. I have some dim memories of traffic coming to a stop and grabbing a whole handfull^([sic]) of brake. I was rather disoriented when I woke up in the back of an amby.
I've lived up in those selfsame mountains, and let me assure you that while I owned and drove several older VWs, I would not have spent a single March up there without one that would reliably make it to Dominican Hospital at flank speed. And faced with the same situation, would probably still have elected to have the amby meet me at the Safeway in Felton, or the fire house in BC.
