Home. What a tale to tell.
Need to get to the desktop, but
Tire Ok. You can tell the rubber is thin but no white stripe of belts showing.
Uploaded the few pictures I took. Posting later.
Self - medicating atm. More later.

Re: Monthly Moderate - Saturday, April 12
Trying to recover. I was beat up by the ride.
On the way back home I came up 67 all the way into downtown Dallas. Bumper-to-bumper stop an go traffic. I was in the left lane, in the center lane ~ why do ppl put on the flashers and weave in and out of traffic? Your flashers make it OK ?
Anyway this girl was doing just that, weaving in and out - just about brushed me in the arm she was 1/2 in my lane to pass me.
In the center lane I come up on her, front of her car up against another car (silver PTCruiser crap)- that driver (another girl) was out of the car yelling and waving her arms around. Cusing that bad-driver out, in the middle of 67 just past the Zoo / Marsailias street. I roll on by ~ minutes later I see the red car - still with the flashers but headed for me coming up quick. I get all the way to the left ~ didn't phase this girl at all she missed me by inches, and right behind her was potty-mouth. Red had to brake for traffic - potty mouth smashed right into her! In my lane just ahead of me ! Gets out and starts kicking and cussing the red car out. I think the red car was pushed into the next one, some sort of suv, He was stopped. I'm sitting there front row! After about 30 seconds of this craziness I decide to change lanes and get the hell out of there. Battery was dead on my camera otherwise there'd be video. Surreal, 3:00pm nice Saturday afternoon, road rage going on around me.
Bumper to bumper all the way into Downtown, across Woodall Rodgers and most of the way up 75, once past 635 I was able to get some speed again. Home just before 4pm. 2.5 hours from Glen Rose ~ but I bet 1.5hrs was traffic related. ( Saturday Road Construction / Bridge construction in Dallas )

Sounds like you should have made 203 with me after all, maybe you would have dodged those jackwagons. On a different note, what about the pics you promised?

Re: Monthly Moderate - Saturday, April 12
and where is that video you were taking???
Random stuff I say:
Women are like square roots, if they're under 17 you just have to do them in your head.
What would you be if you were attached to another object by an incline plane, wrapped helicly around an axis?
