Here it is... another run around the sun and another July 4th...
Found an interesting perspective on the America that so many Americans hold dear... from a Canadian. And I whole heartedly agree with his perspective:

It would be a great day, more than just on the Fourth of July even, when citizens of the United States of America could adopt this perspective. Only then will the promise of America ring true to the rest of the world.

Rules of the Road...
Okay... vent time (and this is really only therapy for me...)
Rules of the road:
1. Turn Signals, use 'em SC drivers. It's not that hard. If I can use my left hand to clutch, right hand to activate the front brake, my left foot to shift, and right foot to activate the rear brake AND STILL use my turn signal, you really have no excuse. Come on.
2. The left lane is for passing, not for cruising. If you are in the left lane, you'd better be passing a vehicle to your right. Slower traffic keep right, you know, like the rest of the civilized world has mastered. Flash to pass, get it?
3. Look both ways before making a move, the life you save may not be just your own. Especially look out for the guy in your rear left quarter panel who is trying to get home to his family.
4. Put the cell phone, the makeup, the Quarter Pounder, and the "Kid in your lap?!" down where they belong and just... wait for it... DRIVE!
5. Just because someone does not take up their whole lane does that make it an engraved invitation for you to come over and give them a closer look at 65 mph. That lane is legally mine bud.
6. Seat belts. Use them. It's the law. I really don't care to be hit by your body-turned-projectile. Nuff said.
Well, that is it. All is well now.
Good Evening and Good Luck.
