Alexandra Paul Over the years I've noticed that certain vehicles have an inordinately high rate of piss poor drivers. Any type of vehicle plastered with Penn State U. crap is nearly guaranteed to be a bad driver. We call them "paw people" for the PSU paw symbol they often display.
We also say, "It's a Jeep thing. We'll never understand." I have no idea why the percentage of Jeep drivers can't drive, but in our experience so many are pretty awful.

What's the difference between a BWM and a porcupine ? In a BMW the (pointy male appendages) are on the inside.

Finished washing Big Bird from our weekend trip. Monday: the car at the car wash, Tuesday the wheels (one hour +/-). A labor of love.
When I think of the future, I think of doing my washing so I've something to wear tomorrow.

Memorial Day thought:
It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
