#74 I Can't Drive 55

Today I drove the speed limit all day. This is not an easy thing to do. There is a very powerful involuntary desire to just keep going the same speed as the other cars around you. It's also a very good way to anger a lot of people. Many dirty looks, one car rode my tail so close I could've reached back and changed his radio station, and one hand gesture, not a vulgar one, but just a "hey what's the matter with you?" kind of thing.
