I want to know if I'm accidentally driving with my brights on.
The problem is, my brights aren't on.
Not until bright light patrol flashes at me - then I give them an eye full.

Tomorrow is the NC game and we in the Big 12 are here - not talking football.  
That's okay, neither is the rest of the nation.

Sorry, Fearless.  You don't make the cut.


However, if you drive 80--getting right up on the rear bumper of any lesser mortal who is only doing 75--on 65-mph highways, then slow to 25 on the exit ramps, you might qualify under earlier provisions of my rant.


nah, I'm not that guy

I don't know what the fine is, but it is also illegal in Oklahoma to hold up traffic in the left lane.  Left lane is the passing lane.  Went into effect a few months ago.
Driving through Oklahoma and Texas to Round Rock on I-35 last week, I see the signs, but there is obviously no enforcement
I'd LOVE to see the authorities out there writing $200 tickets to those folks that have no business in the left lane, hell, they don't even belong in the center lane, they belong in the right lane
there's no one in the right lane!

They'll occasionally pull over and write a ticket for a slow-left-lane-driver but they've got to be REALLY bored to do it.

sleep... don't get me wrong, i love to sleep, but i hate the fact it's physiologically demanded when there is so much to do... most folks lose like, a third of their day asleep- i lose about and eighth or so.. but even that .125 could be put to some damn good use other than laying there worthless...

This is why I have grand plans to clone myself, so the extra me can still be productive during my normal sleeping hours.

I have often thought about this.  This is one of those "natural" things that we have not been allowed to overcome through science and medicine.

There are some elements of our natural existence that we have been allowed to "cheat" - sleep has not been one of them.

There is no pill, no treatment, no regimen, etc....  that will allow one to have a healthy human existence without sleep.

I guess this is one that "the Man" wasn't willing to flex on.

I like sleeping.

Not only does it recharge ones batteries, it also helps people bond.  Ever held your sleeping new born baby child to your chest?  It’s the best.

I also like being able to go back to the essentials to make things right.

When I feel sad or angry or depressed, I take inventory.  Am I eating right?  Am I getting exercise?  Am I getting enough sleep?

It’s amazing how many demons you can chase away by doing those few things right.

SPeed bumps.  I actually love speed bumps.  They take initiative.

Speed limit signs say”would you please?”  Course most people don’t.

Speed bumps say slow down or ruin your suspension.  We don’t care.

Ironically, the biggest trucks with the most heavy duty suspension are usually driven by people who make the longest biggest production out of speed bump traversin.

I don't drive a big truck.  But I do drive a Tahoe 4x4 equipped for a small amount of off-roading.  I don't slow down one bit for speed bumps.  The faster I take them, the less it moves my car around.  The suspension can handle it.
