Traffic related wisdom from George
so it comes to my attention from a source higher than I that there's this little thing called all we know that I have yet to contribute to. as you can tell I don't know much, however this space does give me the space
to rant, and that is something I relish. so here's my rant... I hate to start this way, but, have you ever noticed that some people just can't drive? doesn't matter if they're on a side street or in themiddle of the Jersey Turnpike. they just can't drive. let me share with you some of my favorites:
the cruiser- this guy has laid claim to any one (and usually a half of another) lane that has three on more lanes, while driving between 5 and 15 mph below the speed limit. isn't slower traffic to keep right? please tell your friends if they do this. it will really make the world a better place.
blinkey- this is a pac-man reference for my boy Bendy and you can guess what it is... we all do it, I'm just glad when it's not me...
slant parker- sounds like an alias in a comic book right? nope it's the guy with the overpriced sports-car and not enough hair, telling you just what he thinks about you and and the rest of us. a real "people person".
rushey- this is the nut-job that had to be there an hour ago and will ride your ass so hard you feel like you should charge him to change lanes. what gives with this jerk? it's my road too.
the smoker- this person is usually all over the road in order to find/light a cigarette or, serenity now, a cigar or pipe! this is no b.s. Z and I saw a guy lighting a pipe not that long ago. a pipe! who the hell smokes a pipe anymore? not me. who's got the time?
there are many more but this is all the time I have for now. I promise to continue on this and rant on all kinds of other stuff. soon's I get Josh's brother Benson to frankenstein a couple of computers together for me. next week sometime. then, after that, I'll do more of this. . . or something like it... see U at a show somewhere/sometime soon.
ok people

What about, "The Sleeper" sort of like the cruiser but trying his/her damdest to stay awake.
That was me on sunday.
I think it was another George who very aptly described the three kinds of drivers on the road:
1) Anyone going slower than me. Normally known as a moron, idiot, or asshole.
2) Anyone going faster than me. Known as a lunatic, maniac, or a crazy with a death wish.
3) Me
I think you forgot about one - the Illegal Immigant.
These guys are all over Brooklyn. You can tell you're behind one if you're following a shitty van that's not going above 18mph, stops a hundred yards before any pedestrian, traffic light, or hazard, and carries up to a dozen laborers in the back. You can clearly see the driver is doing everything he can to avoid getting pulled over.
Overly defensive drivers, like the Illegal Immigrant, make the overly offensive drivers, like the High-Speed Lane Changer, seem considerate; at least the offensive guys get out of your way quickly after fucking with you.
