Have you ever noticed that there are ALWAYS two cars going too fast on the expressways? Well, sometimes three. Whenever some jerk goes blazing past me, I always take a look around for THE second one.


I really hope I don't offend anyone with this, and maybe it is an Atlanta phenomenon, but there seem to be a lot of Plymouth PT Cruisers being driven by very masculine women.


The fastest way for my wife to show up at the mall or any store in which she has vanished for a long time is for me to find a really good looking woman and start talking with her. Boom! There comes Anne.

I usually say, "Excuse me, my wife has gone missing and I know that if I begin talking with you, she will suddenly appear......" Works every time and the women think that it is hilarious!


When I was single, I noticed how many great looking unattached women were around when I was on a date. But if I went the same places by myself, there was nothing but couples. Does that happen to you?

Yes it does. :)

I had two college girls try to to pick me a few years back when my date went to the bathroom. Of course while making the "date" our conversation was abruptly interruppted when the other lady sat down with the look of death in her eye. :rolleyes: .

I must have gone back to that lounge everyday for a month and never saw them again!
 
Bill,

You are spot on about Atlanta traffic. I'm hoping in my new job to start taking the express bus from Marietta, so I don't have to get as involved.

Someone was telling me last night of the health effects of commuting stress - it's very real and very significant.
 
The car are "drafting" , to practice for when they get their big break and the world realizes that they too should be a Nascar drivers, I have talked to people who actually believe this.... also a speeding tactic , speed detection systems work on an approaching car, so if some one is going fast and you drop in behind them they will pick up the ticket, stopping multiple cars with one crusier is pretty much difficult at best, also the police cannot usually get a good reading on the car behind the car in front screens it. They do it in the south as a whole as far as I know. I come from a family of long range commuters, pretty much common knowledge. I swore it off, seen to many nasty accidents, that's why I drive a ford escort wagon, keeps me out of trouble in general.
 
Yepp, I do that practice as well. Keep a moderate distance, but if they're nailing the front guy or gal for that matter, I am warned. They're usually taking pictures, and you can easily see the flash.

It's kind different here though, I don't have to constantly change lanes, I just stay on one lane like the guy that's speeding. Keep approx. 300ft distance or more, and you're good to go.

Keno

The Lesbian's car of choice?



GMC should somehow suggest that...take the sales down from their competition at Dodge....or would it? Raise the sales? Whacky world. You could crazy making these generalizations. The Dog of choice, the Cat, what's on the plate at dinner time..

You should take a spin over to Rome! You'll find Atlanta aggression minus the brains... Yesterday I signalled a lane change from the left lane to the right lane and sure as shootin the guy behind me promptly swerved right and tried to pass me as I was easing over. My favorites are the "Sudden right turn from left lane" guys who have, as far as can be determined, already made peace with their Maker.

It all boils down to selfishness.

Very true, Bill.

Along those same lines, those new model VW Bugs seem to suck the masculinity out of every guy I've seen driving one. Guys should take a hint; any car that has a flower vase built into the dash board was designed for women. Most vehicles are neutral. Some, like the Hummer H1, scream masculinity, and some, like the new Bug, scream CHICKMOBILE.

CHICKMOBILE, the definition of a Chevy Camaro here in Tulsa.:eek:

That is unless it's all beat up, has a ton of bare bondo, a missing fender, a headlight hanging, dual exhaust with huge chrome tips, etc, then it becomes a bad arse DUDE CAR.:rolleyes: :D

PANEL TRUCK, silly goose.

I remember real panel trucks. Now, you can only see them in custom hot rod magazines. They weighed roughly 15 tons. They were wonderful.

Most of the delivery trucks had 6 cylinder engines, with cylinders the size of man-hole covers. And durable? Hell, they'd last 50,000 miles, easily.

But neat.
