You can look the sites up on Google but a download wil cost money, AFAIK.
If you find a free site let me know. "Another one is As Good As it Gets"
with Nicholson, Helen Hunt and Greg Kinear. Can't remember what the dogs
name is.

Reminds me of one of the things I utter in the throes of road rage: "Did you

NOTICED!"

Anybody else here prone to road rage?

Nah. Oh, wait a minute. I have noticed a tendency
lately--I've been using the term "a$$hole" an awful
lot in the car to refer to other drivers. Gotta
watch it when 4 yr. old grandson is in the car.
He tends to pick up on things like that....

ha! she definitely has some anger management issues, but I am at least
glad that she knows what behavior is ok and what is not, even if
sometimes she does the not-ok stuff on purpose.

a small child repeating the word "asshat" over and over is not a good thing.

I only get ******** at the real jackasses. The Suburban Assault Vehicles
with the brights shining in my rearview, trying to go 60 on surface
streets in the snow, the choads who, when all you are trying to do is
maneuver around the guy in your original lane who was going 10 under the
speed limit, race up behind you and act as if 70 isn't fast enough for
the left lane (I gently slow down to the speed limit for those guys,
though I have been told that this is dangerous, and will just **** these
people off more). Those really special folks who can't seem to pick a
lane to drive in. For the most part, though, I'm pretty easygoing about
driving. It always amuses me when someone passes me in that manner that
shows how much faster they think you should be going, and then get
stopped up at the next light. :)

Literally only once. I was almost sideswiped by some stupid chick and she
never even knew. I was ******, I took off after her. It lasted all of two
minutes, then I realized that it was stupid.

It was my one moment of road rage.

sometimes I get irritated when someone won't let me merge at an on-ramp, but I
figure those wiener-patrols will get theirs.

I heard a comic say once that anyone who drives slower than you is an
idiot and anyone who drives faster than you is a maniac.

I like to drive fast, not because I want to get someplace faster than
the car ahead, but because I want to *go* faster than the car ahead.
Of course, one more time in traffic school and I qualify to teach it.

Heh, I know where you're coming from but that is something that
could drive someone to road murder. And once in a while, every once
in a blue moon, you hear about someone getting a (YESSSSS!!) ticket
for driving in the left lane without passing. So long as I was passing at
a decent clip I wouldn't let the jerks push me too hard. But I do pass
and move out of the way.

Of course, if I'm stuck in a line behind someone blithely driving along
in the passing lane causing a major logjam, I wouldn't want anyone to
hear what I have to say, it usually involves idiots and them not noticing
they are leading a (your favorite bad word here) parade! That's the
recap of a much longer tantrum but you get the idea.

Around here it's good sport to watch the local college kids do that. As
a matter of fact, I think mom or dad should discreetly follow their child's
trip to school a couple of times, bet we'd see some of them taking the bus
after that. The students are fearless and LATE for class.
