    This is not actually true, I have defended myself in 2 instances and pounded crap of someone and the cops hauled the garbage away and charged them. There was 3 kids breaking into a house and the homeowner shot one with a 357 and there were no charges. It's not like the Wild West where everybody is armed but you can defend yourself. Even if it goes to trial you have to have 13 property owners convict you, and that's not gonna happen if your really DEFENDING yourself.

    I can't see myself doing a good job of it. I'd be all:"now, now, just calm down. Okay just take my iPod, seriously, I have another one at home". Usually it's just moose I run into at night, thank god... I don't hit them, but we talk... Nicely.

    I've had eggs thrown at the truck in Manning, AB and a can of pop thrown at the truck on the TransCanada through SK, while the skinniest guy I've ever seen hung out the passenger window shaking his fist. Just weird stuff.

    I live in Stoon. ... good news is they got approval for a new bridge and highway section that will allow truckers to bypass the city.

    As a city driver... good get these idiot truckers who think they own the road off my streets and get rid of congestion.

    As a idiot trucker..... good get these idiot 4 wheelers who think they own the road out of my way so I don't have to ride my clutch all #### day!

    See ? Free counseling courtesy of ol' Speedy.


    Truth be known, that stuff actually has kept me sane, in years past, on roads like the 401 and the Cross Bronx ....... that and my sister sang with her family, Clannad. ...... I'll let you Google that too .....
