It takes about 5 minutes (including time spent peeing, letting the dog out to pee, and getting a cup of coffee which will make me pee again in about 10 minutes). <BR/><BR/>It's a tough job, but someone has to do it.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12325465720003721471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1897287362311368816.post-32066547605897715612007-10-24T20:08:00.000-04:002007-10-24T20:08:00.000-04:00Thanks Col.

Today I commute from the bedroom downstairs to my office, and just have to watch out for cat pile-ups in the hallway. Would not want to go back.<BR/><BR/>Have a great mini-vacation, and send those pictures!Forrest Properhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15962708844204376272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1897287362311368816.post-34475769326791758712007-10-24T13:00:00.000-04:002007-10-24T13:00:00.000-04:00TM, considering that the coffee hasn't kicked in a...TM, considering that the coffee hasn't kicked in and I'm more or less comatose for the morning ride, I doubt an alcohol induced state would help in the PM.<BR/><BR/>Prepon, I just want the friggin' flying car that I was promised as a kid in the sixties.Brucehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05902257493636336703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1897287362311368816.post-23932070215727034742007-10-24T12:47:00.000-04:002007-10-24T12:47:00.000-04:00See this is why all cars should be outfitted with ...See this is why all cars should be outfitted with a personal computer.<BR/><BR/>You could blog during the rush and have more time to spend with the family when you get home.<BR/><BR/>Why do they call it rush hour anyways when all you do is sit there and wait? <BR/><BR/>Commutes suck donkey dong!

It's like adding insult to injury.<BR/><BR/>One of those was during an ice-storm, I was crawling along at 0-1 mph...while the sides of the highway were littered with cars. The best thing was that the people driving the cars were out of them, sitting on their hoods, waving to those brave enough to try continuing on. It was like being in my own parade.Moooooog35https://www.blogger.com/profile/13283153659252782869noreply@blogger.com
