Also, I doubt the 2-3 mpg makes a whole hell lot of a difference since I routinely get stuck behind morons going 30 in a 45 after work.
Hope this helps.

                        I feel your pain man. I was outside for about 30 minutes digging out my car and my fiancés car.. it honestly hurt to breath. It felt like when you were a kid and you would play tackle football with no pads and get the wind knocked right the fuck out of you.

                        You would think the first priority would be to panhandle/steal enough money to get a bus/train south. Many homeless are mentally ill though, so I'm guessing they aren't thinking.rrfan;1563490 wrote:Why on earth do homeless stay in areas that get cold? You could be homeless in Florida and not freeze.
When I lived in Minneapolis you hardly saw any homeless. The below zero temps were pretty common in the winter.

                                They could just walk. Indians did it, why couldn't they? Also I think the radar detector saves him money by not getting tickets

                                I don't have a radio detector and I don't get tickets.

                                I commute 200 miles a day round trip to work and back every weekday. Safe to say I spend quite a bit of time on the roads.
What was your point again?

                                One of my friends from Chicago (Not S&L) was in town and went to the Bengals game. He tried to drive back last evening and is now stranded in Indianapolis because all of the major Indiana highways are shut down.

                        Maybe you should get a radar detector.TedSheckler;1563637 wrote:I commute 200 miles a day round trip to work and back every weekday. Safe to say I spend quite a bit of time on the roads.
