Probably me, PitBull. I’ve only ever driven in Dallas on business, in rental cars, lost and confused, in the wrong lane of a 10-lane highway … You get the picture.

Sorry I cut you off. ☹

As I have done quite a bit of travelling, some of the worst places to drive are Alaska, Colorado, and Texas. On top of being stupid, they are rude about it too. Better places: Seattle, LA, Chicago, for some reason they know they are going nowhere fast and seem to be fairly courteous.

It’s frightening how many crazies think that world is going to end in a few days. All of us smart people know that it’s not ending until next year.

CatInHat: That’s ok. I got over it.

Ayesha: Do you need help moving? btw- i don’t think they allow trailer trash in canada, you might want to consider mexico instead.

Um, techchick, sounds like you don’t need anyone to drive you mad - you’re within walking distance…

Hey, PitBull,

Just what the fuck is your problem?

Every time I see one of your posts, you’re taking a shot at someone.

Why don’t you go back to AOL chat and come back after you finish highschool?

New Mexico drivers are the worst. White, black, hispanic, native american, doesn’t matter. . . everyone with a yellow license plate drives like a bat out of hell.

I’ll second that notion. Just because 90 makes sense in on the roads to & from nowhere in New Mexico, doesn’t mean that’s the minimum speed on I-10 in El Paso.

And Sy, you got to watch out - now they’ve got pretty new plates with hot air balloons.
