Why is it that when a boat can go 60mph, the owner/drive thinks that he/she
has to go 60mph no matter how crowded the river is. |

Their IQs are that high?

John,
You're referring, I believe, to the I-95 Richmond to DC Parking Lot? My hard luck that while serving in the Army my assignments were either OCONUS or DC. Depite frequent whines to my AO it always turned out that way. I remember the commutes waaaay too well. If I could have foreseen the future I'd have bought a home there to return to and made a tidy profit upon retirement. Ultimately I cashed in all my blue chips for a final assignment to South Alabama where we bought a home and were able to build a little equity before retiring a couple of years later. The only thing I miss about the area is the Annapolis Power Boat Show and the Smithsonian. Butch "John H" wrote in message ...

What a mess. I was an Engineer who had a secondary specialty in OR/SA. I should never have allowed that to happen, but I did. Once I started my first job in that arena, I could never get out, so I kept coming back to DC (which is where about 90% of the OR/SA jobs are). I tried for over 25 years to get to Ft. Lewis, but the closest I got was Los Angeles for a two year stint with the Reserves and National Guard. -- John H "All decisions are the result of binary thinking." |
