a three hour tour

welp, it's true... work is getting pretty serious, so it was time for a whirlwind 3 hour strip. all "facts" within are subject to scrutiny, since i did get them all off some random sites. i guess until mythbusters or the like decides to challenge them, they will stand immortalized at faustian deal. it's possible that a few more strips similar to this will emerge until mid november, where things should cool down on my end at least.

Pace cars --

Why do so many people on California highways think they are responsible for patroling the streets? Why must they be the self-appointed enforcers of the posted speed limit? Why do they take it upon their shoulders to move into the left lane and obstruct the flow of traffic? Are they hoping some people from NASCAR are behind them .. praying for an informal audition to drive the pace car in the next event?
Get over it! There are signs along the roadway, they say something to this effect, "Slower traffic keep right". Guess what, you slothful dork, those signs are for you. When people pass on the right and give you the bird, don't look at them quizzically like you can't understand their frustration.
You have elevated yourself from faceless drone to an obstacle in my path. As angry as you might be at me for flashing my brights and honking at you, I'm like a million times more pissed that I had to drop out of warp speed to get you to move out of my goddamn way.
In closing, to all you slow left-lane drivers out there ... you suck.
That is all.
