Traffic
I haven't talked about traffic in a while, so after the last few days I think its time to bring it up. I don't know what it is, but this week traffic has been horrible. My nice little 30 minute drive has turned into a 45-50 minute nightmare. ANyone who has been up here to visit me can vouch for the traffic here. Its not just that they're doing construction either. People can't drive. Sometimes it will just be that you have 3 or 4 people driving side by side going 10 or 15 under the speed limit. RIght now on I-96 on my way home they have one of the 4 lanes closed for 6 miles, because they have 2 trucks parked on the side of the road at the VERY END of that 6 mile lane closure. Yeah, that makes sense. No work being done and no workers the whole 6 miles. I guess they figure that people up here are such stupid drivers that merging out of that lane if it wasn't closed the whole stretch would cause more of a backup (and the sad part is they're right).
Anyway, thats my frustration with Michigan traffic. After a while you just gotta smile and laugh at it or it'll make you insane. Thats the lesson I've learned.

well that "little slower" part didn't space out quite right. I guess you may need to get a little dumber to move down here too.

Maybe you should move to Evansville. We don't have much traffic down here. You may need to learn to talk a "l i t t l e s l o w e r" and add a southern twang.
