There is a way to get that idiot to not fly by you. The one time I did this my wife got a bit PO'd. When you see that idiot closing in your bumper you wait until he is just about to pull out and pass. Now you have to time this just right. Turn on your directional as if you were going to turn left (in the states anyway). You should hear the immediate squealing of brakes and cursing from the driver behind you and more than likely the person sitting in your passenger seat.

And a good time was had by all !!!

I dislike it when people are telling an obvious lie, they know it, I know it but they don't think I know it ..... but I do. I know I should argue the point but they believe they are right even though they know they aren't.

With regards to the Russia family reference, i didn't take offense i just didn't understand what you meant, but it sounds like an interesting story so i guess i've learnt something new today The history of pre-Bolshevik Russia can be quite interesting.

Brian Regan?

FYI, here are some thoughts from others on "Extra Medium:"
1. extra medium
The nonexistent size for an article of clothing which inept teachers name in a school-wide poll. This term is particularly popular among physics teachers that lack English as a second language (LESL).

2. extra medium
n.-A moniker for the clothing size worn by poser urban Americans, usually in an attempt to look trendy and European. Clothes are characterized by tightness and draw questions of sexual preference.
adj.- having that quality

Classic one. I have a friend who prefers to downshift
Windshield washer fluid works well on Motorcyclists who are stupid enough to tailgate.

I meant the ones without a sticker that you know aren't handicapped, just to lazy to walk a few extra feet. Especially the young people.
