Um, the speed limit on the main road a few hundred yards down my street
*IS* 65mph. They do however provide large shoulders so you can get out
of the way when getting up to speed or slowing down for a turn.

Fork the almighty FLOW. That's my point. Why do you have to break the
law and kill people just because someone else is doing it????. You're
a psychopath and a moron and a coward.

It'll be a cold day in hell before it's 30 below here.

(Yeah, I realize that I just admitted to living in hell, but I really
don't mind the heat).

I've been living in the desert for 2 years now, and it hasn't even
gotten as low as 30 above yet.
