I would be really funny if this group was made up of 100% women!I saw a billboard for the Mentones which apparently was an a capella group probably doing gigs at places like the VFW or the Elks Lodge.

I live in FL, which has become the new Wild West, with gun shops and shooting ranges as ubiquitous as nail shops were when we lived in NYC.I was also thinking of Cosmos. And all those British people espousing freedom of speech and plain speaking. That wouldn't really work here. I live on the streets where Breaking Bad was filmed and if you are disrespectful, there's going to be knifeplay. I do carry a tactical whip which will give me a fighting chance against a knife, but against a gun I'm screwed. so I don't disrespect others because it is a gamble.
I don't know which camp I am in. I certainly am strategically polite but I don't know if I'd be impolite if violence and weapons weren't part of the equation. I don't think I would, but who amongst us thinks they would devolve without a superego or an authority forcing our behavior.I am amazed sometimes at what motivates people to be polite. Most do it because it's the right thing to do. Others need to be prodded.
I drove to the Inland Empire in my wife's car and we drove over 90 the whole way because that's what the flow of traffic dictated. There's no way I could do that in my old jeep. If I were to visit you, I'd have to take route 66 across New Mexico and Arizona and when I hit Barstow, the freeway traffic would be so congested that the jeep could cope with the lessened speeds. Things are crazy.I‘m gonna hafta renew my California driver’s license this year, but I dunno if I’m gonna do it.
Driving is crazy here, and I don’t like ta drive anyway. I usually sneak around on the side streets if I can, and the freeways are out of the question. There’s lotsa free or cheap rides where I live, and my wife still drives.
Very much like casting the I ching hexagrams, no? Throwing the dice speaks truths about the universe that the mind can't fathom.The dice gives you your fate and you take one of a few paths
