commercials for the cell phones with streaming video on them - I
can just see the drivers now.

The only thing worse is driving down the road and seeing those people in the
commercials in the car NEXT TO YOU.

I have seen some people do some absolutely incredibly stupid things. I am
sure they are nice people out of their cars. Loving parents. Caring
people. Wouldn't swat a fly kind of people.

But, when they get in the car, they change. Some of them get terminal
stupidity and some of them into absolutely raging maniacs.

A few days ago I was headed home and the cute blonde in the convertible
ahead of me caught my eye. Because she was trying to talk on the phone
and tie her hair back at the same time. Both hands in the air, leaving
nothing doing the steering. When she drifted close enough to the curb
that she had to suddenly grab the wheel and swerve, the cell phone went
up in the air and bounced in the road. So I took aim and crunched it.

That's one small splat for mankind ...
