11. DO NOT jump off the lower half of the stairs. Ouch.

Doesn't matter how many times you've done it successfully.

12. Sometimes, adrenaline is your friend. Like the time I slipped on a larch patch of ice and learned how to recover with flailing. (Go with the spin, plant your hands on the ice and use the spin to torque yourself back up once your turned around. Don't know if I could do it now.)

13. When asked, "Why did you do it?" Answer with "It seemed like a good idea at the time."

Guilty. Very guilty. Even before I went a little nuts I was impulsive. In fact...I havn't changed a bit!

Did I scare anyone, huh huh? Did I?

20a. The same *******s who race down a half-mile merge lane on the interstate highway using the Last 10 feet of cement to force themself in front of your car would never run the Last 10 feet to to the same kind of thing at a theatre line.

For some strange reason (worth a psych class term paper Id say) the Last cars to turn on their headlights are the ones which most needed to. They tend to match the color of the road or darkness. Whether its darkness, rain, fog, whatever. Check it out next time.

I think there is something about the choice of colors. People who choose bright cars want to be seen, and people who choose dark ones want to stay stealthy or unnoticed? I dont know why. Thats for someone else to try and figure out.

If anyone DID do a study, Id like them to do it in a parking lot so they can question the people coming in. Question all of the "wrong" ones to the theory, and see if maybe they arent the ones who chose the color of their car.

The drivers of the fancier cars (Mercedes,BMW) tend not to use their turn signals and are most likely the ones that will cut you off.

Maybe they are using their turn signals, I just need to buy those infrared goggles to see them!

If you are ethnic, you will buy a lowered Honda or Nissan, stick a muffler on it and call it a "sports car"
