Yeah, I hear they're passing some new federal road-rage legislation that's
supposed to impose stiffer penalties --murder notwithstanding! I wouldn't
be surprised if the motivation for this was due to what's happened in S.D.!
I don't know why, but an awful lot of people simply lose their mind
(assuming they had one to begin with!) when they get behind the wheel of an
automobile.

Orlando?
DisneyWorld comes to mind... Yeah here in San Diego an jerk cut a UPS guy
off. Happened they were heading to the same offramp... To make a long story
short, the UPS guy got out and confronted the jerk and the jerk ran him
over, draggin him for 60ft (happened in my buddies work parking lot) The
UPS man is dead. The Jerk is up for murder. Everyone that watched it happen
is traumatized. Happens at least once a year in S.D. CA. Ive
discontinued the hand out the window prototyping...

Nope, he has one of those extremely dark licence plate covers that block
it out from 15-20 feet. to avoid the photo toll highway. stupid $%&*er.
Where the @#%& is air care?
I haven't checked to see if my insurance caovers it. Maybe Norah will
know that. i hope they do not require a police report. i'll have to do
some major begging.
Talk about road rage.... did you guys hear or read that story in the
globe and mail today about the guy in the Canadian tire parking lot?
This guy runs into Can. Tire comes out. (note : he's parked in a loading
zone) a truck pulls in front of him. the guy starts honking the horn.
truck guy gets out to ask what's the problem. the driver spits on him,
then the truck guy takes a swing at him. the driver grabs his arm throws
it in reverse and pulls away(with the guy still attached) throws it in
drive. the guy it still clinging(speed reached 80km/h) on, he's holding
onto the mirror till it breaks off(700ft later). he falls under the car
gets his legs run over falls in a ditch till someone found him.
Meanwhile the guy is shouting i'll @#$%ing kill you, you bastard. the
only good thing is he got charged for attempted murder. The guy is still
recovering after months.
Yikes!!
i'm on course in orlando all next week so i'll have to call him today
and see what he can arrange after i get back. can anyone suggest
activities to take my mind off this while in florida(never been).
thanks to all concerned. =)
take care, eh.
