I'm in my mid 60s too - sometimes you have that "urge to purge" and you wind up tightly gripping the steering wheel with both hands, hoping that there's a gas station around the next turn with a potty. I can appreciate that sometimes it can be tough to focus on anything else.

Save the wave.

It is always cool to have a wave thrown at you - even cooler when it's a nice looking member of the opposite sex that does it!

Wow! A nice driver! ---phew--! lol I'd heard that there were some out there, but I figured they were like UFOs....you always hear about them, but you never see them.
Anyway, here's my "weird-driver" story:
Driving through Buffalo, there was a split-window in the lane to the right of me, about 8 car lengths. This car was darting, changing lanes without signalling, stopping, then squealing away, etc etc etc. This driver was waay out of line. But the '63 was so sweet, it was the center of my attention and I kind of overlooked the idiotic driving. We both get a red light, so as I pull up to the left of the '63, I see the driver is this gorgeous blonde. I didn't know WHAT to think...."What the hell is she doing driving this hot machine in such a reckless manner for?" So, she looks over to me. My mouth is open in a blend of astonishment and a "not-knowing-what-to-say" affair. She was obviously waiting for me to acknowledge her, when after a few more seconds of akward silence, she laid on me this wierd, twisted mouth kind of look, and said "Suck my c*ck!!" Light turns green, she pops the clutch and tears away.....me still sitting there wondering what the hell just happened, with the guy behind me honking his horn. I've seen alot of weird, bizarre things in my travels....and that's one of 'em. So...look out for a yellow 63 driven by a blonde...or maybe just look out for a yellow 63. This one has TWO trannies.

Naw. I had a chick. Still...even if I didn't have a gf at that time, this blonde was too crazy for my tastes. I like 'em crazy in other ways...if you know what I mean.

One of the good habits, of a good driver is make sure they see you.....if at first they don't wave back .... forget about it...they are history... in your rear view mirror...one of you were going to fast to react to the other. Just keep on waving....
