Deadliest Times of the Day to Drive

1. 3PM- 6PM
2. 6PM- 9PM
3. 9PM- Midnight
4. Noon - 3PM
5. Midnight - 3AM

So I take it, its unsafe to drive from 3 p.m. to 3 a.m.

You just better be careful if you cut someone off by accident and they don't take it that way. That happened to me on the way home from work. I got into the middle lane and then I got into the turning lane and noticed I cut someone off. This person made it known he was very pissed off. He was trying to pass me and couldn't. We both were making a right turn. I figured good. I'll let him go before me after we make the turn and that will be that. Not so. He did get in front of me, and slowed down on purpose! We separated after that. But boy did he make a fool out of himself. If I ever get that upset with someone I'll just yell at them in the privacy of my car. It's a lot safer that way. Or even think to myself, "That idiot."

BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!!!!

Interviewed by Scary Monster...

Scary Monster at http://scaredmonster.blogspot.com/ has interviewed me.

Are you truly a lamb or actually a wolf traveling the Web incognito?

Neither. I don't consider myself a wolf at all. Scary, do you consider yourself a real honest to goodness monster, scary or otherwise? Oooooooops! You're the one asking the questions.

Please tell us about a favorite memory?

Growing up, I lived in New York on Long Island. My grandparents lived in Chicago. I would get to spend a couple of weeks with them in the summer. When I went their I got to see my friends. We hung out together and played croquet. It would have been neat to spend the whole summer there, but mom said no, she'd miss me too much. Just as well, I'd probably get into loads of trouble hanging out with those boys. I hung out with the girls, too, but those boys were much more interesting. I think about four of those friends and wonder what they're up to and how their life is going and would love to see them again.

Have you ever lived in a foreign country or wanted to?

Yes, does summer only count? My parents had a place in Newfoundland Canada. They would spend the summers up there until mom passed away. Sometimes I would get to join them. We actually lived there in the summer.

What was the bestest birthday present you have ever received?

My bestest birthday present? I would have to say a puppy that I got when I was 7 or 8 years old. I loved that dog. She was so lovable to all she came across, except if you knocked on the door or delivered something. She would bark and growl then. She was a good watch dog.

What is the one thing about you that outshines all other qualities?

I don't know how to answer that. I guess I can be kind and compassionate if someone has a problem and wants someone to be sad with them, or even someone to be happy with. I don't know. What do my readers say?

So who wants to be interviewed

An updated version of Who's On First...

Who's on First: The Movie

Little Lamb ponders...

I was visiting blogs. I came upon Scary Monster's blog. He was talking about when he was growing up how he used to kick cans and make mud pies. I started to think today's kids know nothing about how it is to grow up in a safe world. Or at least a non technical world, without computers or Nintendo's or any of that stuff.

I would be able to walk to the grocery store, which was 5 minutes away all by myself. If I wanted a friend to tag along, that was ok too. My sister and I would go to the movies with our friends a lot and spend the afternoon watching the same movie over and over and over again. We did that with the two Beatles movies, A Hard Day's Night and Help. Sometimes boys would come with us and I was sitting next to one during a Beatles movie and he told me if I screamed he would not sit next to me. I uttered a small scream and he didn't move. He probably didn't hear me because I screamed quietly. Another reason for him not hearing me is because everybody else was screaming! Our parents took turns driving us to the movies.

When I was growing up I would visit my grand parents and hang out with my friends there. They lived in Chicago. South Side. Gram's only request was when we went anywhere which crossing a street was required that I let her know where we were going.

You could actually run away in those days. Boss lady ran away a few times and came home ALIVE! Imagine that!

Today, you've got to be careful who your kids hang out with. You never know if someone will pick them up and kidnap them. When I was growing up, people hitchhiked. I don't know that they all got to where they wanted to go, but some of them did.

It's a different world today. Both parents have to work to survive in most homes. It's a rare thing where parents stay together anymore. Kids are tossed to and fro visiting both parents. Things are more expensive nowadays.

Yes, I'm a baby boomer. I was alive when the Beatles were together, all four of them. I believe Paul McCartney was the only Beatle who stayed married to his first wife.
