As I was driving for what seemed endless miles I thought that every politician that pushes for lower speed limits should be forced to drive from Denver, CO. to Kansas City, MO at 55 MPH. Put a GPS in each car that sets off a loud siren if they go over 55 MPH.

The speed limit is mostly 75 but 95 would be better on a LOT of it. There are LONG stretches of arrow straight roads with no hills except overpasses for the other roads. Sometimes you can drive for miles and not be close to any other vehicle.

The only problem with 95 MPH speed limits are the morons with some POS vehicle with bald tires and no maintenance of the suspension and brakes. Maybe set up a system where the driver and the car are certified as a safe driver & vehicle. It will never happen but I can dream!
That does work well in Germany. But try putting in all those requirements on driver training and TUV approval over here...

Yes, dog is doing fine, thanks. Didn't poop much this weekend, but she didn't eat much either. Must have had some sort of canine gastroenteritis.

My full blood Apache Indian nephew called. His wife and kids are in Minnesota. He is in some sort of alcohol rehab halfway house thing in FLA and asked for money. Had to tell him I was sorry, but couldn't help him out this month.

I can't get motivated to do anything at the moment. I just want to sit here and be entertained by PPOT. But the threads are not being updated fast enough.

Yup, that sucks



Bloke walks into a pub and asks for a pint of anything except Best Bitter. Barman asks, "What's wrong with the Bitter?" Bloke says, "I had 12 pints of it last night and when I came round I was f--king skint."
Barman says, " 12 pints of anything in here costs about the same."
Bloke replies, "Skint is my dog."

For some reason if the message is too short it won't do the smilie. And if you type in all caps and the message is too short or one word or something it makes them lowercase.
