My Lady Wonder Wench listened to the current podcast and made these comments:
There is nothing stupid about keeping things simple” – isn’t that what Big Louie says? Well, simple is me driving while Himself tries to figure out how we are supposed to be going from here to there. I know the way, but as he himself has explained oh-so-marvelously, his ways are really better than mine, so why not use them? Unfortunately, if we do use those “ways” we often don’t get where we thought we were going.
I used to race my 1965 Mustang; even won a trophy once. I was the only female in the racing club and every guy there made certain I had the benefit of his/their knowledge to come in first, no matter what. Oh yes, it was lovely fun. So I figure I can hold my own against any male who thinks he can out-drive me just because he is a “he”.
Now we all know my Louie Louie Lad does NOT think that way. He understands that everything being equal, I can and do drive better than almost anyone else on the road (anyone seen Mario Andretti lately? But I somehow feel it is proper to STOP at stop signs. To WAIT at red lights. To OBEY traffic cops. To NOT run over stupid pedestrians in the middle of the highway. None of these problems exist at 2000 feet in his small airplane. I figure he can have one and I’ll take the other.
