• Speaking of cars and traffic and such, there was yet another 18 wheeler
  tumped over in Dallas this morning.  Made a mess of traffic on
  635, from what I heard on the radio.

  18 wheelers are dropping like flies around here, no joke.  It's
  becoming darn near commonplace to have one of the creatures toppling
  over and blocking traffic for hours.

  Of course, if they'd SLOW DOWN and quit driving like their long-haul
  rig was a Corvette in disguise, that'd doubtless help a
  lot.   There is no question in my mind but that truck drivers
  are worse drivers than they used to be.  "Knights of the road"
  they were once called.

  Hah.  Those days are long gone, unfortunately.
