Ya wanna have some fun Kent?  Go to California and drive around or better yet
Seattle...  You'll feel like some kind of twisted speed freak menace in about
5 minutes.  I don't know how people drinking that much coffee can drive soooo
slowly.

of course, if you really wanna have some fun, go to Vegas and rent something
fast and head off into the desert...
