My 17 year-old daughter seems to have a heavy foot at times even though she is normally very cautious and responsible. Her little sister is pretty wild. I am NOT looking forward to THAT one getting her license!

Not a clue! I work on commission, so my time is really my own, anyhow. I get pissed off at myself for wasting too much time here already.

I don't think aggressive driving is exclusive to either of the sexes. It's an equal opportunity form of obnoxious behavior.

Speaking of which, i encountered a man with a four wheel drive during the winter who thought the SUV would drive itself. The sidewalk wasn't plowed to I had to walk out on the side of the road when all of a sudden this nut job in an SUV comes heading straight for me and starts cursing at me- I stood my ground poked my head at the window and said :"You have no idea how to dive this thing do you maybe you should take the bus."

For th elast two weeks I've been in the process of writing a couple of reports, plus a brief.

I have no desire to do either (boring work) so I find myself wasting time here too.

This is not a waste of time- we are exchanging ideas, phiosophies and technical expertise found only amoung the Benz driver/owner. And let's not forget the occassional GRAMMER lesson.
