    "Masshole driver" is a term that is understood everywhere north of the Potomac River, east of the OH-PA line and south of the St. Lawrence River.

    They drive five under the limit in the left lane or twenty over in the right lane. Massholes treat traffic control signs as being mere suggestions. There is a hotel, not far from here, with a "No left turn" sign at the exit to its lot. Whenever I see some clown turn left there, the vehicle has MA plates, guaranteed. In the Northeast, only Jersey drivers approach Massholes for being morons who were apparently drunk through driver's ed. I don't know why they even bother keeping the RMV open in MA, unless it's to provide the syphilitic cousins of state pols with jobs. They might as well give out drivers' licenses for proof-of-purchases from twelve-packs of beer.

    It doesn't hurt that scaremongering is a pretty reliable way to make money for news agencies.
    Ratcheting up the level of fear without verifiable cause solely to turn a buck is doing a monumental disservice to the country. I'd bet heavily that a significant percentage of those watching cable news yesterday came away with the belief that what happened was an act of terrorism and still believe that.

    Things are nuts enough now without making people crazier for fun and profit.

    It's worse than that- those people will also refuse to believe that it was not a terrorist act, and that any news to the contrary is some sort of nefarious coverup.

    Texas has a spectrum of bad driving. Dallas is Mad Max. San Antonio isn't even Mad Max, because Mad Max has logic to it.

    Dallas is a bunch of people who aren't sure where they are going and a bunch of people who know exactly where they are going and want to beat their personal best time for getting there.

    It's been quite some times since I've driven in Texas. When I did it was always in Small Town Country in the eastern part of the state.

    Driving around that part of the state was quite nice. Most people would actually pull over onto the shoulder to let you pass them. It was rare to actually need to use the left lane at all.

    He gets a bad rap but as William Randolph Hearst is alleged to have said:
