    yeah

    A couple of them they let the bushes and trees get nuts, can't see cars in or oncoming. Second favorite after watching oldsters go CCW are the grass/dirt circles with tire tracks right up and over!

    I hate roundabouts. The state started installing them everywhere here in NC, without any notice to the public that I'm aware of. Very confusing for older drivers who been used to the old intersections for 20 or 30 years, and now they have to figure out how to navigate these new intersections. Too many idiots don't know the meaning of "Yield".

    Most old farts don't know that you are supposed to use turn signals.

    What does NC law say?

    Medicare is awesome, you get to pick what insurance company is going to screw you . The best part is it’s so confusing that you can hire a Medicare specialist to help find the right plan for you based on your needs / health/ prescriptions . We’ve been on it since 1/1/25 we’ll see how it goes. Then start the process over for next year :fingerscrossed:

    I try and take things one day at a time but company politics makes it very difficult. I would hope that at almost 65 years of age I would get some respect but I don't. I just have to tolerate it and I don't like it. It's time to get out of this semi.

    Morning all, unless it's still yesterday. All my days seem to run together. This might be tomorrow... or yesterday. Either way, have a good one. :thumbsup:
