Good one, Moony!

This part was soooooooooooo me when I lived in California:

"6. Both hands on wheel, eyes shut, both feet on brake, quivering in terror: Ohio, but driving in California"

I was terrified every time I got on a freeway out there. The freeway system was such a maze that you could be in the wrong lane and easily end up going miles and miles in the wrong direction, with no easy way back.

I'll take Ohio driving, thankyouverymuch.

That may be city folk. Out here in the country no one throws trash out on the highway. People drive politly. Mainly because of the gun under the seat. Hunting rifles are to hard to move quickly to shot back.

I am currently taking an on-line driver's improvement class (for the ticket that I DIDN'T deserve, but don't ask Ted's opinion of this) and I really did copied/pasted this from the class.
