Good. I should hope people would be at least smart enough to not try to type on a laptop, of all things, while driving.

I KNOW she is NOT doing both i read it in another thread (or maybe a blog next door)
about the new network card she just bought.

I guess I need to elaborate on typing while going down the road. I DO NOT use the laptop while driving, just while the co-driver is driving. I have enough to do while driving -- don't even check the Qualcom until I stop. And for those who never had Circus Peanuts, they are a kind of orange colored marshmallowy peanut shaped candy. 8-10 do the trick -- although I've been known to eat them til I'm sick, but I figure 8-10 isn't too much worse than a candy bar and it takes longer to eat (I eat them slowly) and help relieve the boredom that can set in to help me 'alert' back up. A few handfuls of Fritos works well when I'm in the mood for salt and at other times, a crunchy granola bar works well. The Circus Peanuts were a surprise though.

Keelady, I agree with you on every item, except #7. When I drive, I tell myself that no one else on the road can drive. I absolutely trust no other driver. Because, the very moment I trust that four-wheeler to remained stopped at the sign; guess what? He'll run it. And there I go trying to get 80K lbs. of machinery to stop on a dime. I think not! Therefore, I must drive for them and myself. Great post though!
