40 Random Thoughts

Instead of a long paragraph style of random thoughts, shorter "the Daily Quickie" ESPN type blurbs.

1.They're sorta like wasps: North Carolina cops, work together in large groups in one or two areas.

2.Just so you know: "Bridge freezes before road" (SC)

3.Not cause I'm mean but because it would be cool to see: A tractor trailer blowing its tire driving down the highway.

4.The calander says what?: 70 degree weather the past 3 days? In December?

5.Gotta keep you awake somehow: With the absence of hills, South Carolina Dept. of Transp. has to throw potholes along all the straight roads.

6.Always, always, always carry a big stick: If just to set off the "Overheight" signal before a bridge.

7."I love you, as long as you don't wake me": Words spoken by my mother when I told her was leaving early in the morning.

8.I-95 isn't a major road: So they can close half the lanes without any problems. Right?

9.D.Jenkins would be proud: Trying to double the speed limits on 95 (not intentionally of course) when the speed limit is 70. miles. per. hour. (so close!)

10.In case you forgot: "Bridge freezes before road" (NC)

11.And just because they can: Tractor trailers going really really slow.

12.Future Invention I: Speedometer located on the back of the car for those behind you to see how fast your going (that's gotta decrease the rear-end collision rate, right)

13.Future Invention II: Variable personal roadsign. Baltimore: 55, Harrisburg: 105, Your House: XX.

14.Unless you like to smell 3 day old 2nd hand smoke: Never, ever, ever, EVER give your car to a smoker. Even if they are your sister.

15. No rest for the weary, except during the day: "No overnight parking" sign at a rest-stop. Madness I tell you, madness.

16.If only to bring more kids to the wonders of smoking: The Tobacco and Farm Life Museum.

17.How am I supposed to know where the nearest automatic door is?: Virginia doesn't allow radar detectors. None. Throw them out the window as you pass the state line.

18.Hey, you look familiar, didn't I see you on the way down?: Minivan with Quebec license plate, gotta be the only one in the state province.

19.Will my insurance rates go up because of this?: Writing while driving.

20.Someone's trying a little too hard to make friends: Rocky Mount, N.C.-150 Restaurants. Rocky Mount, N.C.-16,000 hotel rooms. Rocky Mount, N.C.-Reunion Headquarters. Rocky Mount, N.C.-Stay here and we'll sleep with you!

21.They must be the pride of they're school: "Produce: Too miles on right"

22.We need tighter immigration laws!: Too! Two! Three! Minivans from Quebec. (What's wrong with Quebec?)

23.The best National Championships. Ever.:And that's why they play the game. Right OU?

24.Auburn co-no 1!: see above.

25.Still searching for you...: Blue neon, doing 90+ m.p.h. through MD and Northern VA, SC tags.

26.Not the best state motto on a license plate: "Drive Away" (MO)

27.164 miles to D.C.?: How many to my house? (Future Invention #2)

28.Future Invention #3: Wireless electricity. Think of the possibilities!

29.Just cause I'm small doesn't mean I don't have feelings too.: Damn you tractor trailers for cutting of the guy in the little red sports car (me).

30.Modern Marvel #1: Chippenham Parkway, I-95 interchange.

31.Modern Marvel #2: I-395, I-495, I-95, and some other VA road, interchange. (yes all roads meet at one spot. When the exit ramps are higher than the surronding highrise hotels, you know the roads a tad bit high)

32."What the hell were they thinking?" files: 5 lanes on 495/95 to 3 over the drawbridge. A drawbridge on the (Nation's) Capitol Beltway? What the hell were they thinking?

33.In case you forgot, again: "Bridge Ices Before Road" (VA)

34.I hate Irony: "I got sunshine" on the radio... it starts raining outside.

35.I love Irony: I told my brother not to use I.E. I downloaded Firefox for him. He said I.E. worked well for him and didn't need it. He got a virus through I.E. Sucker.

36.In case you can't see all the signs: I-795 and an arrow painted. On. The. Road. Honestly.

37.Why did I leave South Carolina again?: 70 degrees and sunny when I leave, 50 degrees and raining when I arrive in MD.

38.Wait, now I remember: Hot date with hot Melissa.

39.And one last time, lest you forget and crash: "Bridge Ices before road" (MD)

40.I really couldn't think of another one: But 40 sounds better than 39.

41.P.S., for you readers up north: "Bridge may be icy" (PA)
