Women

There are times I open my email and find a piece from a friend worth sharing. This is one such example. My friend wrote:

I was driving to work yesterday when I observed a female driver, who cut right in front of a pickup truck, causing the driver to veer onto the shoulder to avoid hitting her. This evidently angered the driver enough that he hung his arm out the window and gave the woman the finger.

"Man, that guy is stupid," I thought to myself. I always smile nicely and wave in a sheepish manner whenever a female does anything to me in traffic, and here's why:

I drive 48 miles each way to work.

That's 98 miles each day.

Of these, 16 miles each way is bumper to bumper.

Most of the bumper-to-bumper is on an 8 lane highway.

There are seven cars every 40 feet for 32 miles.

That works out to 982 cars every mile, or 31,424 cars.

Even though the rest of the 32 miles is not bumper-to-bumper, I figure I pass at least another 4,000 cars.

That brings the number to something like 36,000 cars I pass everyday.

Statistically, females drive half of these. That's 18,000 women drivers.

In any given group of females, 1 in 28 has PMS.

That's 642.

According to Cosmopolitan, 70 percent describe their love life as dissatisfying or unrewarding.

That's 449.

According to the National Institutes of Health, 22 percent of all females have seriously considered suicide or homicide.

That's 98.

And, 34 percent describe men as their biggest problem.

That's 33.

According the the National Rifle Association, five percent of all females carry weapons and this number is increasing.

That means that EVERY SINGLE DAY , I drive past at least one female that has a lousy love life, thinks men are her biggest problem, has seriously considered suicide or homicide, PMS and is armed.

Give her the finger? I don't think so!

Drive safe and have a great week.
