I guess I'm the ultimate handicap redneck.......i do have a camo chair which i painted myself and it does have a gun/bow/fishing pole rack (2 of them) one on the back for when i'm going thru the woods to get whre i'm going and one on the front for when i'm on watch. Pictures to come later on my profile.
Very cute! How about a walking stick or cane that doubles as a shot gun? :)
If your hair was singed from launching bottle rockets off your wheelchair canes.
If you proclaim your wheelchair a "Babe Magnet."
If when you heard about the poor chap in a power chair impaled on a truck's grill for several miles, you yelled, "Right On, Bubba!"
Thanks, these are good additions folks!

Yes, I need to see pictures of your chair! You can post them here too.

Thanks so much for the laughs. I'm not in a chair yet, post polio syndrom. Still using a wheeled walker to get around. Got a couple of friends who want to pimp my ride with oversized wheels, a small gas engine and chopper handles. Your post gave me the go ahead to call them. Maybe can ride with the big boys (harley bikers) for the next road rally in my area.
Hip Hip Hurray for all us handicalled rednecks.
long live pink flamingos and white painted tires in the front yard

Ben Carpenter got the ride of a lifetime when his electric wheelchair became lodged in the grille of a semitrailer and was accidentally pushed down a highway for several miles at about 50 mph. His father, Donald Carpenter, was incredulous when police called to tell him his 21-year-old son was OK after the wild ride. He said his son had started to cross Wednesday afternoon at an intersection in Paw Paw, about 140 miles west of Detroit, where the truck had stopped for a red light. The light changed to green while Carpenter was still in front of the semi, which started moving forward. The truck bumped into the side of the wheelchair, which then started turning forward, its handles becoming lodged in the grille, the father said. The wild ride had started. "He's so low that the truck driver couldn't see him, and the truck headed out," he said. The wheelchair, with Carpenter strapped in it, ended up being pushed by the truck as it sped down the Red Arrow Highway. Police said the wheelchair was pushed about four miles, but Donald Carpenter said it was about half that.

Hey Olivette! I need that wheeled walker! So cool. I'm tired of having to push myself around with my left leg! Where do you come up with all of those pictures? I am amazed at your ability to find exactly the right one! You go, girl!
Hey, I've been to Paw Paw. It's a real quaint little town. They have a place where you can pick the cultured blueberries, really huge ones. I'm hoping with our cool spring and not too hot and kind of wet summer, we will have a good blueberry crop this year. I'd like to go strawberry picking too. Poor guy. He must have been scared to death!
