Light Drop: Lamp Shaped Like a Dripping Faucet

Oooh, bad idea.
The oil in the compressor is supposed to stay in the compressor. Tip it up like that and the oil will slosh up into the pipes. That's mostly OK if you can leave it to stand for several hours before starting it - but if you don't the oil gets forced round the evaporation circuit and has a narsty habit of clogging the expansion orifice. And you don't want you orifice clogged with skanky oil.

Strapping the refrigerator to the trunk of the car works very well. You need nice flat straps (not rope) that will allow the trunk to close and latch, and the refrigerator can't be much taller than your car is wide, but it holds extremely securely without any possible damage. Also desirable: some tape to hold the doors closed, and a blanket to avoid paint scratches.
