Lucky Day Today
Thermostat stuck open on the truck I borrowed to get an 80SC, was getting 3mpg, returned it and drove the 75 miles with the wagon, car turned out to be total junk, no need for truck.
Country back road, 45 in 30, passed a cop Four lane road, 50 in 30 (no idea why it was 30, clearly a 50mph road), passed a cop Mass Pike, 80 in 65, passed a cop Having a good day.

I have accidently blown by cops going well north of the speed limit, and was so sure I was going to get nailed that I started to pull over. Nope. I guess it was nap time.

One of them could have been a gorgeous lady cop with an extra set of handcuffs.

Careful Shaun, pretty soon all the "higher than mighty's" on the board will come along to tell you that you are the worst kind of scum because you were speeding. You know, because they would NEVER break the law.

How about sitting in a parked cruiser? In their cars going the opposite direction? I think I've thought of everything. Nope... wait... how about standing outside their car sipping coffee?
