For God's Sake, It's Just a Snowflake.
Dec. 5th, 2007 09:39 amIt snowed in Washington, DC, today so naturally IQs have plummeted to a mere 25% of their already very low value.
My commute to work too twice as long because folks insisted in driving 20 mph in 55 mph zones, slower yet in other areas. This wouldn't bother me so much if they didn't insist on driving abreast each other to block all lanes. I bypassed the DC beltway entirely because it was clearly gridlocked in both directions and all lanes.
One clown I followed into my office parking lot straddled both lanes of the highway, the off-ramp, the intersection and the company driveway; I finally passed him when he had to make a decision about which gate to enter.
It's not even a heavy snow! At best, it's an inch of dry, fluffy snow, not heavy or wet in any fashion. Visibility was very good too. There's just no excuse. As was said in an office e-mail this morning, "The roads aren't bad... it's the drivers that are ugly."
Now that I'm here at work, I may be in for an extended day depending on how many others make it. I'm not looking forward to the return commute although the warmer temperatures may melt all this away by then.
