    [QUOTE="semi" retired;4141713]All right, Wisconsin made it into your top 5. BTW, Wis. leads the nation in drunk driving arrests, which may or may not have something to do with it. (with a baseball team named "the Brewers", what do you expect)[/QUOTE]
    I was shopping with wife in Sheboygan and saw a rack of shirts, hats, magnets, and of course bottle openers with the words "Drink Wisconsinbly". Yeah, I think they take pride in their liquor consumption here.

    Another example, the Mrs and I were eating out and we were deciding who wanted to drink and who wanted to drive, so the waiter comes up and over hears us and says, "You guys sound responsible, you're not from around here." And we're not, we both grew up and lived in IL, where DUIs are taken very seriously, all our lives and recently moved to WI, where it is not uncommon to hear of people with 10 or more DUIs.

    Im in Illinois on a layover and was skateboarding to a shopping center. It was two lane road very wide and a country small town area. Every single driver was trying to run me off of the road. It got to the point where i busted out my pocket knife pointing it outwards so if i do get mowed down at least i scratch their car in the process. That seemed to work lol

    Oh, I know. Last winter a friend from NY. came to visit, and while heading to N. Wis. he wanted to get some booze for later, so we stopped at a 24 hr. gas station for fuel around midnight and he got a bottle of brandy and was amazed you could do that. He said, in NY, you'd never be able to do that.

    I had a motor home passing me slowly on the left when a car zoomed passed me on the shoulder. They crisscrossed in front of me as we met oncoming traffic. :)
    The road is not that dangerous ... just the drivers on there that kill others or themselves.

    LOL! No joke, coming on at 45 on a 70 MPH freeway and expecting you to make allowances for them. GRRRR!

    Doesn't that happen everywhere?
    It's like they are pulling into the parking lot at Walmart or something rather than getting on the freeway.

    Washington mother effing DC. And I was on the loop.

    Now I've been stuck in Los Angeles traffic in both a semi and a personal vehicle. I was simply flabbergasted at the amount of ######## it is trying to get AROUND Washington DC on a Tuesday morning. Like holy hannah.
