Observations from the morning commute

Massachussets drivers are the worst drivers in the world. I know that's not exactly news to most of you, but I think it bears repeating.

I can see clearly now I got a new windshield on my car this week. This was forced on me, because the old one had a crack in it and the inspection was due. I didn't want to have a run-in with My Wife's Friend. As usual, I was startled by what a noticeable difference between the two windshields. I cannot believe how pitted my old one was. It is like the difference between looking at the world through gagknee's glasses and having brand-new, clean ones.

Messy, even by MY standards. You cannot imagine what a mess a Large (32 oz) cup of McDonald's iced coffee makes on the floor of you car. Well, maybe you can imagine it, but I don't have to anymore, because I know.

Silver Lining The carpeting on my car floor is the exact color of McDonald's Iced Coffee. That's something, I guess.

How about this morning... Did you get caught in the 495/93 mess? It was backed up for miles when we went through.

is it the massachusetts drivers or the large number of nh-ites that invade every morning?

i wish cars didn't have carpet. Rubber is much better.

ldub: I am on an odd schedule right now where I go in really early and leave mid-afternoon (for coaching soccer at SENHCA). One of the side benefits of this is that I miss most of the nasty traffic problems.

gagknee: of course it is not the NH-ites. we are the only ones who know what we are doing.

Except the NH-ites that are actually former Mass-ites.
