I hope you weren't flying American. I read this morning that they have
delays due to a 'vendor technology issue'. They must be using Windows Server.

Thanks. It was, but spending 12 hours on the road definitely exposes
you to idiots and danger.
A very large pickup just barely ahead of me started swerving into my
lane at 75 with no signal. A quick honk kept them from hitting me.
And something weird happened later: a Tesla driven by a negroid shadowed
us for a couple miles, staying in a blind spot to my right. I sped up
or slowed down significantly and within seconds he was matching our
speed and in the same spot. It could not have happened by coincidence.
Don't know what his major malfunction was - testing autopilot maybe?
Then he seriously tailgated another car for a while, and moved on.
I arrived there and back home alive!
Yeah there are some poor drivers out there, but there but for the
grace of God go I, I was younger and full of testosterone once. Glad
I never killed myself, doing something retarded on the road.

No doubt. I risked my and my friends' and strangers' lives many times
in my teens, mostly just driving too fast. Not reckless and maniacal,
but too fast to stop if someone pulled out of a side street.
6 months after high school graduation (my first quarter in college) a
couple of my 18-year-old friends from high school died in a car
accident. One lived on my dorm hall, and was home for Christmas break
when it happened. It was very upsetting.
Yeah, it's tragic. We need cars but they are hazards, in the hands of
people without the perspective to stay safe.

Here's our virtual card to all...

We visited my wife's extended family over the holiday. One of her
cousins bought their 17- and 18-year-old daughters brand new 2024
vehicles: a Dodge Hornet GT and a Subaru BRZ. They're responsible girls
as far as I know, but those are very fast cars. Definitely wouldn't
have been my first choices for a teenager.
Yeah, I just don't get it, fast cars are fun to drive to be sure, but
getting tickets isn't, getting a suspended license isn't, losing the
ability to fuckin' walk isn't.

I will do 65-70 on a clear freeway, but other than that I am largely
within the limit or only a trivial amount above. Driving at this point
in my life is a talent, not a game. I didn't get lucky enough to
survive to this age, without an appreciation for not being physically
mangled or dead.
