Giving me all kinds of hand gyrations and the bird, I chased him. I was pissed. Stopping behind him at a red light waited for him to give me atanbaba (dirtylook) in the rear veiw mirror.
By this time I saw the humour, waved and smiled. His shoulders shook with laughter and he waved back.

When did all this happen? Sounds like somewhere in Los Angeles.
Alice, I can relate. Living in New York, I need not explain any more!
I guess in the US there is still an expectation that people know how to drive. Egypt...Monkeys behind the wheel...oops no disrespect to the monkeys intended.
Alice,remember when you were pregnant,about 7 months and we drove down a one way road in New Hampshire.I remember you getting out yelling and I followed. I think we hit his window and told him where he could go...remember that?Coincidently I had road rage at Kmart and that man called me a "b" and I flew out and hit his window.If I wasn't 9 mos. I woulde've caught him at the stop light:)
No, Jo I'd forgotton about that.
Alice, what I get a lot of around hear is when; I am obeying the 30 mile an hour posted speed limit, then give then "your #1 finger" for doing the posted speed limit.
After hearing Alice and Joanna's account of their own personal episodes of road rage, I would take both of those Sparks girls very seriously. In the 70s we used to call them "tough chicks".
Alice, I relate chick and I don't live in L.A. or N.Y......just S.W. florida, where all the "snow birds..aka blue hairs" all flock down here from some northern state, like ohio, Indiana,michigan,ETC., when it gets too cold up there for them. you hear them talking in the long lines at the stores, saying how much better things are UP NORTH. We natives and semi natives have been known to blurt out in frustration, "GO BACK"! oh, and the roads...my God. I won't even go there. My fave bumper sticker says.."If it's tourist season, why can't we shoot them?"
Hey Pat, half of those blue haired bad drivers probably come from New York or New Jersey. We call them 'Snow Birds'. The scare us up hear when they drive around in the summer time. You know, doing 45 mph in the fast lane!
Hey Alice, I forgot to mention that every time some one flips me the 'your the #1 finger' for obeying the posted speed limit, just reinforces the fact that I am a good citizen.
Jo and Alice, I'm going to the south side of Chicago, would you come with me??
I hope your 'packing' Dan!
