I was going to label it the Harper scheme of dealing with enemies of the
state.

No. You forget, I am not detected. This would just cause a huge pileup
of very slowly driving rubber-neckers. But, you would probably trade
all of those wrecks for the chance at totalitarian control.

If this came to be true:

Ron says "Oh, no! Another brick in the wall."

Dan says "Oh, yes! Another brick in the wall."

Hey, Ron, reach down and pull out that corn cob stuck up

Having commuted between DC and Huntsville, yes. If someone has a
aviation sectional, they could probably find where a power-line cross
I-81 near an exit and nail it down.

Looks like a paste-up to me. The vegetation should be getting flattened
by the downblast, and it's showing no sign of anything. No debris being
stirred up or anything, either.

Nice idea, though--did any LEAs bid on the Cobra that was up on Ebay
recently?

That's right Dan. Its that salad bar law. You know the one ....where you
have to take a clean plate each time?
Legislators (Tom Butler ha ha) feared Alabamians would not clean the beads
between use.
Corn cobs, however are disposable. You are in a sense recycling, supporting
Alabama farmers, and saving the earth.
Corn cobs now! Corn cobs tomorrow! Corn cobs forever!

Are these fresh, fat, moist ears of corn, or old, rough, dried cobs
with no kernels?

Ah, Alabama!

No. It merely takes an admission of being in the set of the majority
drivers who speed to goad Dan onto his soapbox.

What? I'm no tight ass, or nervous, or anything leading to such a
comment. If you meant this as humor, I missed the smiley. Judging by
the mood of your recent posts, I took this to be scheme that you might
actually embrace.

Not that hard to do with modern editing software. Any recent PC or
Mac can handle it easily.

You heard me. I don't stutter.

LOL. Ron, you have a hot button. It's great big red button
that flashes the words "push me" on it.

>.... If you meant this as humor, I missed the smiley.

It didn't require smilie, and your thinking it should is
just further evidence of the cob.

>.... Judging by


>the mood of your recent posts,

LOL. I posted a humorlessly ridiculous pic. You need to
work on your mood detector, which of course is pretty much
what the cob comment was saying.

>... I took this to be scheme that you might

ROTFLMAO. Good one, Ron. Where's the smilie?

It's not your speeding, per se. People who try to go the speed
limit will go under and exceed the limit at times. So statements
about the majority of drivers is deceptive. There's a difference
between those going 1 or 2 mph over, those going 5 mph over, those
going 10 mph over, and those going much greater than 20 mph. There's
a difference between exceeding the limit in an emergency, exceeding
the limit rarely, exceeding it now and then, exceeding it more time
than not, and exceeding it habitually.

You're a strange dude. Most likely a high IQ geek type with no common
