Rain-X for president!

Rain-X rocks. In their current condition(being held together with a rather shady construction of plastic wire ties) my windshield wipers serve as the back up plan for keeping rain off of my window. Mostly because I'm not quite sure how long 3 wire ties can hold together a windshield wiper transmission assembly. I'm gonna have to order that part soon.

Anywho, I hit a rain storm about halfway home, and < snappy > daaaaaaamn< /snappy> , the rain beaded up and rolled right off the window. It was awesome. It was just like in the commercial! Who'da-thunkit?!

Now, I'd like to bitch about the stupid ass(oh yeah, cuss word filter on) crazy stupid lame crappy highway system in DC. Its stupid, effen stoopid to be precise. How can one road be 95N, 495E, 495N, and 95S at the same time? I'll tell you how...BY BEING STUPID! My directions told me to take 495N, but my choices were 495E or W, coincidentally 495E was also 95N(and apparently 95S...stupid), the next turn on my directions was supposed to be 95N, so I figured I was going the right way WRONG! I went all the way around the beltway, probably 45 miles out of my way or so. I've made this mistake before, years ago.

Aside from that, I had a great weekend in VA, thanks for having me shayna/carl, Kiga said she had a great time as well:)

I'm gonna go watch o'brother where art thou. I got some lines from that stuck in my head on the way home...namely "Well ain't this place a geographical oddity? Two weeks from everywhere!". That movie is slowly taking monty python and the holy grail's place as my favorite comedy ever made.

    Rain-X is awesome. I use the wiper fluid additive as well.

    A beltway is 4 directions but only two directions at a time..it's complicated

    the belt way is all 95, but some one is straight thru the city, and some is around the city and trust me, you aren't the only one who's been lost and gone into maryland when all you wanted was to get past DC. but the split is 495E is the same as 95N and 495N is the same as Tysons, and 395N takes you into maryland north of the capital. anyway, glad you made it home safe. k-ie
