-90% of fancy cars are drivin by black people
-my wipers need a speed above hi called tropical
-if minnisota is the land of 1000 lakes louisiana is the land of 1000 bridges
-i envy all the swamp land in LA
-pulling a boat thru jackson is a b!tch
-pulling a boat thru menphis is a b!tch
-pulling a boat thru st louis is really a b!tch
-most peaple in cars would rather die in a crash than let you merge
-next time I see someone get out of a BMW im going to kick them in the nuts

I got to see your boat first hand last week. It's a good looking boat for sure. And it is a wide boat no doubt but it looked like its gonna handle well. Congrats on the new boat.

Classic road trip observations! You are right, I think people would rather die in a crash than demonstrate ANY sort of courtesy to other drivers, especially if you are towing.
