As I am driving home from Lake Havasu gleefully reveling in the idea that I have taught my last class for the week; I suddenly realize that I am being passed by another car that is doing at least 90 miles an hour. Now, I have set my cruise control for 5 miles over the speed limit, and this car is passing me uphill, on a double yellow, less than a 1/2 mile from a passing lane. To make matter worse there is a car cresting the top of the hill, So I slam on my breaks giving the offending car the room he needs to avoid the head on collision. As usually happens in these situations; I reach the Pilot ten minutes later and who is behind a semi awaiting a left turn onto I-40..... my nemesis. He turns to face me arms in the air, in what I believe will be a demonstration of the universally recognized arms in the air, palms upturned, shoulder shrug expression of my bad. Alas, this was not to be, what actually was exhibited to me, was the rare but not totally unknown to me Double Bird. At this point I felt a small amount of indignation that I believe was warranted. What say you?
