Dukes of Hazzard...says it all
I still remember my friends dad wanting to know how in the hell a brand new truck needed it's shocks replaced!

I have more than I should admit.
One would be waaay back when they reduced the speed limit to 55 (70's) I was on the way home from work. Part of my trip home was an 11 mile strip of highway with rolling hills here & there. I headed home and this guy comes up behind me, clearly exceeding the speed limit. I thought to myself, this guy really should learn to slow down. So, with traffic coming from the opposite direction I put my 66 GTO right on 55. Once the traffic cleared he would speed up to pass & so would I, until one of those rollin' hills would come up.... back to 55. This went on for a few miles and he'd had enough. He got a runnin' start on a long clear stretch of road and thought he had me. He got beside me and had that "road rage" look on his face when I slammed it into 3rd looked at him, smiled and nailed it. By, by .......

There is a road not far from where I live that has a merge lane after a stop light going out of town. A couple times I have been in the main lane and someone from the merge lane will pull ahead of me, cutting me off to beat me to the merge. I get irritated for a second and then I think back to the GTO story. I then smile and say to myself, "I guess I'm getting paid back a little piece at a time.
