    Driving slower can be hard on the nerves, especially if it's not voluntary. Check out my latest blog entry..... here

        There has been a study that proved running fast through the rain gets you less wet than walking in the rain.

        I am prepared to extrapolate those results to driving. I hate getting wet.

          A group of one person is able to achieve agreement. Each person added to the group increases the probability of disagreement exponentially. I'm calling this the Marriage Theorem.
          When I'm good I'm very, very good and when I'm bad I'm HORRID.

            I just find the second-slowest semi on the interstate and stay behind him (usually 3-5MPH under the limit). Only downside is the slower they are, the more likely they are to just downshift rather than brake. Stay a good distance, children.

              I will then use the same technique and extrapolate that you do not take showers regularly! LOL

                  Ky. Law Mandates Bathing Once a Year

                  Good thing I don't live in Kentucky!

                  /smelly

                  I'm still waiting for last winter's ice pack to finish melting, so that I can finally take off my parka amd snowshoes.

                  Hey, it's not the only state with stupid laws.

                  Florida: Unmarried women may not parachute on Sundays.

                  Hawaii: You may be fined if you don't own a boat.

                  California: Illegal to eat an orange in your bathtub.

                  Illinois: Illegal to give a lit cigar to your pet.

                  Indiana: You may not bathe during the winter.

                  Massachusetts: Mourners at a wake may not eat more than three sandwiches, and goatees are illegal unless you pay for a license to wear one. In the city of Marlboro, thankfully, it's illegal to detonate a nuclear device within city limits.
