Yes, maybe they could make a portable one and attach it to your head, like one one of those umbrella hats.
That would serve to repel the rain, and also keep bugs (like mosquitos) off of you.

If you like your 8 track player you can keep..
Oh, never mind.
SR-71 don’t need no stinkin’ windshield wipers. The rain can’t catch it. That raindrop thinks about hittin’ the SR-71 and whoosh, she’s gone. SR-71 be sayin’, “You go try to drop your behind on that Cessna down there.”
They keep adding degrees of difficulty.
That was an uptown fix. We just used vicegrips.
I was trying to impress a girlfriend with my classy ratchet winders.
Alex,
Things are tough here for so many people know who can’t find work.
It sounds as if you are starting over in a peaceful place, with fewer stresses.
I’ve heard a number of expat stories from Cebu like yours. All positive.
Thank you for sharing your story!

Did it work? I bet she was impressed. ;^)

Yes, the Philippines is loaded with so many expats.
My Landlady’s husband is a 20+ year expat from PA.
Our newest neighbor is from Cape Cod.
We gather at 4 PM each afternoon in our shady garden, just above the sea and have a few San Miguels (beer).
I have helped several others to move to my town. Some from the US and some from Europe.

There is, however, a FR “dog in a manger” group of 4 or 5 that hate my guts, as I am not their to share their pain.
America was founded by expats, so I see no shame in being one.
and the foot operated radio station changer.
He was probably used to using vicegrips like the rest of us inside the box thinkers.
My ‘68 Barracuda had that and a foot pump for the wipers... You could also push really hard and mist the windshield of tailgaters.
Also great fun spraying folks walking behind the car at a drive-in!

Rain would evaporate if it hit the skin of the SR-71 when its flying at its highest speed.The exterior was said to get as hot as a Kitchen oven when flying at high Mach numbers.
Besides that their is usually no bad weather where the SR-71 fly’s.Usually above 80,000 feet above ground leval.
“Is it close to the tyres .... near the petrol tank ;-?
It’s on the opposite end from the boot.
I see that all the time from new cars. I had no idea they didn't get ashtrays.
I want ashtrays back in my vehicles, dammit.
Can we have all our windows in the house done like that?
