Even still, I was just as wet when I got home as I would have been if it rained.

Yesterday afternoon, had my first obscenities yelled at me, that I can recall, since I started commuting. Controlling the right lane on a 5-lane road, a big Ram truck crew cab with 2-axle trailer changes lanes to pass, and while doing so the guy in the passenger seat hangs out to yell "Get the f*ck offa tha road!!". He got back in the right lane then turned into a neighborhood a few hundred yards ahead. But hey, the driver obviously saw me with plenty of time to change lanes and was not slowed down at all.

Lane control works, people.

Nothing much this morning other than a car passing on a hill with traffic oncoming. I had motioned for him to stay back, then waved him on at the crest of the hill, but he was quite a ways back from me and waited way too long. When he finally went to pass, the oncoming traffic was nearly at us, having to almost stop so this yahoo could complete the pass around me. Again, though, a full lane change and plenty of room given on the pass.
