Automotive High-Jinks and Pranks

A long time ago when we were stupid young boys one of the guys we worked with had a late 70’s (I believe) Corolla. Not much to these cars, even reaching the stuff under the dash was pretty easy. One summer morning one of the other guys went to this Corolla, reached up under the passenger dash, and put a trout in the defroster duct. I can’t believe it took the guy almost a week to figure out where this stench was coming from and the power it took the rest of us to keep from busting out laughing was unimaginable. Looking back, I sure feel bad about funking up this guy’s car, but at the time it was funnier than hell.
