some people's kids

[old_guy]

if the shoe fits wear it. because I am about to unload on you. I have a rant and I am posting it. I just came to Las Vegas from Yuma and I want to know why, why why!!! why do you not hook up you toad lights when towing a toad? no, I can not see you MH tail lights. why do you drive 45 mph in a 65 mph zone?, why do you think you as a motor home or TC or Other RV, think you can pass in a pass zone and take up the entire pass zone when there are 50 cars behind you? yes, some people kids make me so angry.

Senility starting to set in? You give us seniors a bad name.
Relax and enjoy life. Not everyone can be as perfect as you.:R

By the way, in most jurisdictions, driving 45 mph in a 65 mph zone is perfectly legal.

Not if they are holding up traffic in the passing lane. It is after all, for "passing", not limping along.

Actually in most jurisdictions, driving 45 in a 65 will get you pulled over and warned for "unnecessary slow driving" and told to take the side roads instead of the highway/interstate or it'll be a ticket next time.

I've seen all these things, but wonder what kids have to do with it???

Ditto..

I will point out that not having towed lights hooked up can get an RVer an invitation to a meeting with the Honorable Judge.

If he is in the passing lane doing 45 in a 55 That can do it too.

That is why we have cell phones - a 911 call (or other # poated on most highways for police) will take care of those kind of idiots

"Some peoples parents" is just as appropriate. Most kids had some help growing up as they did.

I was on I10 going west in Florida and had 2 motorhome ahead of me blocking both lanes doing 50 mph in a 70 mph zone. As far back as I could see they had traffic backed up. A state trooper came up the emergency lane and pulled both of them over.

I just love it when a large vehicle doing 50.1 mph tries to pass another large vehicle doing 50 mph on two lane highways. So much fun.

P.S. Yes, I was being sarcastic.

Totally agree, he got er done with his title.. :B :B :B

However for those not familiar with the phrase
"Some people's kids"
How can that even be that you never heard this?

To me its always meant..
Untrained
Uncouth
Unthinking
Entitled
Dumb
Stupid
Self centered
And on and on

And it's "NOT" the kids fault they ended up like that either.. :B

The way I look at things nowadays is I have my health don't go hungry and can afford to RV and travel. Life is good. Whenever I get upset I think of my co-workers that never made it to retirement. 3 died of Cancer 1 of a heart attack and 1 with immune disorder. My problems seem small in comparison.

How true. I experienced the same thing, except these people were beloved uncles. They all died just before retirement or shortly thereafter. it was a major part of my decision to retire "early" and go full time.

I have seen this over and over, so my advice is DO NOT WAIT.
