    I was coming through Arkansas just two days ago and I saw this car just about to pull out in front of me...I was on I-40....it looked like an old lady and I slowed down even more because you never know what they are going to do...sure enough, she wanted til I was about 700 feet from her and pulled out in front of me....well I had already slowed down some and then I downshifted again to get slower...some old folks when they are driving won't go the speed limit and I was trying to be patient:biggrin_25523:....but she was really getting on my nerves...I don't usually use my horn as I don't want to scare anyone into maybe having an accident...so I patiently waited and hoping she would turn soon...I sometimes think they slow down just to irritate us, but I respected her for being elderly and maybe not so used to driving:biggrin_25516:.....so she drove for almost half an hour...and I finally saw her signal to turn right, so I keep my slow speed in anticipation of her turning....and she surprised me when she started to leave the interstate she turns around and gives me the third finger and I started laughing:biggrin_2559: and almost had to stop....here I am being as nice as I could...not blowing my horn, and being patient with her driving....and she gives me the finger....I bet this lady was every bit of 80 years old...I swear I have never had an old woman give me the finger since I have been driving but this was so funny, and I wished I could have gotten her on camera...it was hilarious and I will never forget her and her third finger....ever!:biggrin_25513:

    That's funny! I could see an old lady flipping someone off, just and "old" grumpy day that's all. She probably will call your company complaining you was on her tail end for so long:biggrin_2557: Not realizing you was trying to be nice:biggrin_2554:

    I wouldn't doubt if she doesn't call my company, but honestly I was so patient and never gave her a dirty thought....she "flipped" me off and I did nothing to deserve it....oh well if I get a call from the boss then I know that she called him....will let you know!:biggrin_25523:

    One of these days I'll get a fast connection so I can participate in all the videos everyone else gets to see.

    Perhaps there should be a text version of the video for those of us with dial-up.

    I tried to save a still snap shot of it to post here, but I've no clue how to do that.

    The video is only 2 1/2 mins. Try to download it before ya go to bed. Should be all set when ya wake up. It is hilarious.

    Ahh... I was gonna go there and try to watch it, but it requires Flash and I absolutely refuse to install that crap on my computer. Ninety percent of the Flash content on the web is ads--slows my connection to a crawl when I load a page with a buttload of Flash ads.

    I uninstalled Flash and I hardly see an ad anymore. :biggrin_2559:
