C'mon you last-minute shoppers! There's no reason every driver on the road has to pay for your procrastination. Show a little courtesy and concern for others. Don't go ripping through parking lots and trying to create your own express lanes on the road. It's not nice to pull up an inch from the bumper of the car in front of you to block others from entering the lines of traffic. Just take a deep breath and look at the big picture. Saving five minutes in traffic isn't really going to matter in the long run. Relax. Don't stress about things that you have no control over.

Sorry Grey Cat!
Common Courtesy is a thing of the past. Today is the ME Generation. If it doesn't mean something to ME... IT doesn't matter....
So be courteous to ME! :)

How true about the Me-generation. Everything in our society is all about me and NOW. Everybody isn't guilty of this. But enough are to create the feeling that common courtesy is gone.
I went to Yankee Stadium on Saturday. I was cut off 4 times during the trip. People have lead foots. People today drive like they are the only ones on the road, and they have to get there yesterday.
I thought of an idea while I was driving. Paintball stress relievers. If you get mad at a driver, you hit a red button mounted on your dashboard. The button would release a barrage of paint balls. How great that would feel. The problem though, is that I'd probably get shot at myself for only driving 70mph.

Two people were killed on I 91 in Rocky Hill yesterday. One was decapitated. This is the price some pay for people who have no respect for others. I am sure this was due to some kind of aggressive driving. People really hate each other these days. I can't see any other reason for such dangerous and unacceptable driving.
