| "Call shotgun" Estilo nem sempre acompanha quando o conforto esta na liderança Explanation: "let’s face it; style doesn’t always CALL shotgun when comfort is at the wheel." => Estilo nem sempre acompanha quando o conforto esta na liderança -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2009-10-04 03:32:22 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Why do people call "shotgun" when they want to ride in the front passenger seat? Because in the days of the old west and stagecoaches were the normal transportation, the driver was on the left controlling the horses and the guy next to him had a shotgun to protect against Indians and thieves. So we call "Shotgun" because of the position next to the driver from the old days. http://br.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=2007090423504... Old west - stagecoach shotgun seat position.
