    Sorry. Good news is cops showed up about 20 minutes ago so maybe they'll get it moving soon.

    Difference Between Liberals & Conservatives

    If a conservative doesn’t like guns, he doesn't buy one.
    If a liberal doesn't like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.

    If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn't eat meat.
    If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone.

    If a conservative sees a foreign threat, he thinks about how to
    defeat his enemy.
    A liberal wonders how to surrender gracefully and still look good.

    If a conservative is homosexual, he quietly leads his life.
    If a liberal is homosexual, he demands legislated respect.

    If a person of color is conservative, they see themselves as
    independently successful.
    Their liberal counterparts see themselves as victims in need of
    government protection.

    If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his
    situation.
    A liberal wonders who is going to take care of him.

    If a conservative doesn’t like a talk show host, he switches channels.
    Liberals demand that those they don’t like be shut down.

    If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn’t go to church.
    A liberal non-believer wants any mention of God and religion
    silenced. (Unless it’s a foreign religion, of course!)

    If a conservative decides he needs healthcare, he goes about shopping
    for it, or may choose a job that providesit.
    A liberal demands that the rest of us pay for his.

    If a conservative slips and falls in a store, he gets up, laughs and
    is embarrassed.
    If a liberal slips and falls, he grabs his neck, moans like he's in
    labor and then sues.

    If a conservative reads this, he'll show it to his friends and have
    a good laugh.
    A liberal will delete it because he's "offended".

    Causeway is all I travel, I avoid the Bayway like the plague. I don't like the thought of being trapped on the bridge.

    I used to drive to Little Rock, AR, Dallas and other points west a lot. It never failed that after driving all day long someone would pile it in just before the tunnel Eastbound and I would get stuck for an hour. Frustrating because on a 6-10 hour drive that would happen 30 minutes from home. Only good thing was that a lot of those times I was driving the boss' Toterhome so I had a bathroom on board for all the coffee I was jacked up on.

    And yep Sat radio and comedy channel saved my sanity.

    I used to avoid it, but I started taking it in the mornings because I go in so early. This is the first time it's bitten me.

    Every Friday and Saturday during the summer it clogs up right there. For some reason all the tourists flip out cuz something is over their head and slam on the brakes right in the middle of the tunnel.

    I usually avoid the causeway cuz I am physically incapable of driving the speed limit on it, and SFPD likes to hang out there. I'll be taking it tomorrow though since I'll be on the bike.

    Sounds like a good explanation and doesn't surprise me. I'm probably going to MO Ile on Saturday, almost tempted to drive the long way around.

    It seemed to never happen when I was westbound where I could have had options. I could see getting off and killing time at Bass Pro or something but eastbound left me with no options, especially in that damned semi truck.
