Bah! Once you get in the habit,...Cutting corners? Bah! Once you get in the habit, then you start thinking that is the norm and you'll start estimating all your trips by that new benchmark. But as you pointed out, riding a car's bumper doesn't save much time. It is better to pass that car and leave him a distant spec in your rearview mirror, though sometimes you may have to drive up on the sidewalk to pass. Which takes us back to the beginning as to why we never do that in the first place, as Jerry Seinfeld said, "I wouldn't try this in MY car!"Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11761471765537103477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3750031433333592027.post-50643519710913498632008-12-22T21:17:00.000-08:002008-12-22T21:17:00.000-08:00I seemed to have accomplished a lot in this post, ...I seemed to have accomplished a lot in this post, eh?

AND you succeeded in making me feel guilty. Good day's work, I say, huh? :-)<BR/><BR/>A lot of good points made. I like it when you're cheezed off. It's fun. I think you stole my signature "sheesh!" First "Ope!", then that other word I can't remember, now "seesh". Pretty soon you're going to try your hand at "pffft". <BR/><BR/>Was this in response to my How to Be Stupid post?
