Around here, texting and driving isn't so much the problem, it's them not knowing their left from their right. Too many people drive in the left lane forcing people to have to pass on the right. When you pass them, they have that jackass eating briars look.
One of these days I'm going to go ballistic when we're having a family dinner and one of the younger ones (under 40) pulls out their phone texting/reading just under the dinner table.
Here in Ohio (and I have always thought that Northerners are rude...and getting worse) on a paved road/highway where the shoulder is rather wide...say 3,4 feet or more....they'll pass you on the RIGHT even if it's a two lane road. Especially if you're making a left hand turn. People in too much of a hurry to slow down/stop for a few seconds. Had a friend who got hit that way. Car in front of him was turning left, he wasn't... just stopped to wait, car coming from behind went to pass both of them on the right hand shoulder, car in front of my buddy turned, my buddy accelerated.... Idiots, just idiots.
Pipeline road is a 2 lane highway than runs through the middle of Saudi Arabia and I was in a humvee going to pick up some supplies when a car started to pass us on the left. Then another car started passing that one on its left in the sand while another started passing us on the right in the sand. Four across on a 2 lane highway all the while another vehicle was coming from the other direction. I told my drive to hit the brakes and let everyone by. Somehow, they all converged on to the lane ahead of us without hitting each other or the on coming car. Those Saudis be crazy.
This was on I-64 the other day, where the idiot was driving in the left lane. The semi in the right lane was going faster than them on a hill. You have signs posted all along the highway, saying keep right except to pass, and here they are driving in the left lane, passing no one.
Thanks for that. Been a while since I had heard that one. It is played at every retirement ceremony each post has at the end of every month.
Same down here chief. Florida seems a little cooler than it did in childhood. August and September are our big ones. Usually the hot, hot ones and most active in storms.
Hence the change about 10 years ago from 'global warming' to 'climate change'. A catchall.
This is not fake news. I lived in Clearwater in 1977 and we got a couple of inches. It snowed in MIAMI. I had an aunt that died in Kentucky that year and they could not bury her because the ground was too frozen to dig a grave. I don't know how long it was before they could.

Our local weather report shows 71° and clouds with plenty of thunderstorms during the day. We are expected to reach 84° by midafternoon.. We are taking off for a few days to the East Coast, only 106 miles from our place here on the Gulf Coast.
The subject on the radio today is washing your hands. There is a right way and a wrong way so I trust all are well and washing your hands. The doctor just said if you go to the latrine you wash before and after you do your business. OK
His reason was you need clean hands to touch your "junk". If they are dirty you can spread COVID to yourself. I am beginning to wonder what is being taught in medical schools these days. So wash your hands before and of course after. Use soap and scrub for at least 30 seconds.
Yep, not even Cordmaker could get it done.
