| Today's automotive follies | 06 Oct 2007 06:11 GMT | 5 |
Well, today was a good day. First of all, I got a flat tire yesterday in the company beater, too late in the day to get it fixed. You'd *think* that would be bad, but it was actually a good thing. I just borrowed a company truck to get home/back to work, dropped the car off

Having been a left-coaster for the last 14 years, I'm going to be driving on I-95 for the first time in a long time. Is the speed limit in the NY area still 55? If so, I'm going to have to train myself to adjust--out here you can blow past CHP doing 75 and they don't care.
