495 to 95 to 295 to 70
Those are the roads I took to the meeting I had in New Jersey today.
The driving was good. The meeting was good too. Kinda too bad that I spent (slightly) more time driving up and back than at the actual meeting, but it certainly could have been worse. I could have hit a lotta traffic.
While on the road, I saw Obama stickers plastered all over bumpers going both ways. So many that it really made an impression on me. They seemed to be everywhere. I don't recall seeing Hillary stickers, although I must have. I did see at least one McCain sticker too. But then again, I also saw a number of Kerry/Edwards stickers.
The most interesting thing I saw? A cop in an unmarked car that had pulled someone over.
What made it so unusual was that the unmarked police car with which the cop nailed the wayward driver was a Mustang GTO.
My first reaction? ::drool:: I think that's a way cool car.
My second reaction? Ha! That driver got suckered!
My third reaction? Poor guy. That's an unfair advantage for cops against speeders. I mean, who is going to expect a muscle car like that to be an unmarked police car? (But, tres fun for the the cop who gets to drive it.)
