Default Is it just me....
Without fail when on the interstate and passing a slow car, I am all of a sudden Pat Day on Easy Goer being set down to a furious drive, of course in my best Tom Durkin or Dave Johnson voice. aka..."Mike Smith lets the Bull roll....""

When you are Pat Day, do you always find yourself being late to your destination?

How funny..I too have envisioned driving at times like being in a race...Always hate it when that "hole" closes and I'm stuck behind "paw paw" when I had the opening to go around just seconds before..

Course I always get a chuckle at the idiot that zooms past me going ninety-to-nothing just to meet him at the next light

I used to like Rte 22 into the Hamptons on a good day. Alot of steadying, blocked behind wall of horses,swung hard to the right, all out in the drive, etc
