On the road again

Attention woman in the dark SUV with Ohio plates (you know who you are): I have heaped curses upon you and your spawn for generations.

The streets of NYC are chock full of stretch Hummer limos. These vehicles are ludicrous in the extreme. I half expect to see the doors open and unload commandos wearing white tie and tails, bandoliers and submachine guns in order to launch an armed takeover of the Waldorf Astoria. Just rent a regular limo for your big night on the town. You look silly.

New Jersey, Maryland and Pennsylvania should invade Delaware and rip out the tollbooths. Five miles of road does not warrant $2 in tolls and an hour-long bottleneck caused by drivers paying said tolls.
