George Carlin grew up in the Bronx, as did I. I'm sure that's the similarity you notice. I also learned to drive in the Bronx. I'm convinced that once you attain the ability to drive in NY City, driving anywhere else on this planet is a piece of cake by comparison.

BTW, today I was behind some brain dead guy in a van who was the ONLY vehicle in a right turn lane. The green arrow was green for at least ten seconds before we approached it. He braked and stopped at the green arrow. WHY??? I leaned on the horn for about ten seconds before he woke up. I couldn't help but think of what I had just recently written.

It must be something in the water here...

It may be that there's something in the water all over the country.
