Title: Does anyone else do this?
Post by: Giffster on Sep 28, 2003, 07:05 PM
 Ok...on my way home today, I was stopped at a light.  I looked at the car next to me and he was " jamming"  to some type of music.  Well, since I didn t have anything to do except wait for the green light, I decided to try and find what radio station he was listening to.  Anyone else do this? or am I just out there?
 
 Cheers
 
 btw.....I never found the song, guess he was listening to a cd.

 GiffsterBack in the days when I had a paying job, it seemed everyone was listening to the same station during the morning drive into work.  They always had some hysterical game going - like getting someone to ask a nearby car for lunch money or some such thing.  The best bits were when the " target"  was also listening to the station and knew what was going on.    
 
 On another note, one of my employees liked to honk his horn in time with the music when he was out on the highway - until the day it stuck on!

 GiffsterI don t think I ve ever done that exactly, but I did see a woman once painting her toenails on the dashboard of her car while waiting at a red light.
 
 I was so perplexed at how she could do this and drive, that I didn t notice right away when the light turned green and a guy behind me honked at me rudely.  What a dummy!!  It could have been worse.....he could have been stuck behind HER!!
 
 Its no wonder that there are as many accidents as there are[:@]

 GiffsterI once had someone ask me what station I was listening too...it was a tape...Meatloaf, Bat out of Hell.
 
 But one time, I was at a red light, middle land of three on a warm sunny day, all the windows down enjoying Tanya Tuckers  Delta Dawn when a trucker pulls up beside me playing the same tune, shortly after that another car pulled up with the same tune on!  Three cars in a row listening to the same tune, all three of us were woman just belting out the lyrics, was a hoot!

 GiffsterI must confess that I was one of the stupid ones.  I would actually change my clothes on my way to work from one job to another.  Never caused any accidents but I ll guess I gave a pretty good show.  BTW, I was driving a stick at the time, I was pretty talented back then...lol.

 Giffster[font=" Lucida Sans Unicode" ]I am the one that everyone watches[:D].  I will boogie to just about anything.  When a GOOD song is on, watch out.  I will even wave and smile at the people I catch watching me[;)].
