Welcome To Case's Column
Let me say a big welcome to all of you for joining me here. I'm going to call these blog meetings Case's Column. I wanted to use "Corner", but that was already taken.
Since 2008, it's been a real privilege to come on here and share some of my life with you, and it's a big world where we live.
In these blogs, I'll just speak whatever is on my mind, but we will be playing within the rules here. I may pick a particular topic, point out an event, or shoot the breeze. I'm a little bit of an essayist at times, so I'll just speak what's on my mind, and I might tell a story or two. Or, I might spew out an opinion or three. There will be some serious moments, some tender, some poignant, but there will also be those moments that you'll just bust out laughing. But, hopefully, everything will be in good fun here. And, of course, there's a place below for your comments and thoughts as we go along here. So feel free to join me for the ride -- I sure as heck hope I'm doing this right and not making any mistakes.
Thanks for taking your time in reading Case's Column. Hopefully, you'll enjoy being entertained by it as much as I've enjoyed putting these writings together. And thanks for the time you spend in City-Data.com, where it's great to be alive!
Regards,

Drivers Have To Have A Clear-Cut Objective To Deal With Traffic
Posted 07-03-2023 at 03:25 PM by case44
Drivers everywhere you go are capable of one of two things. They're either friendly or courteous to the commuting public, or they're choosing their own selfish desires, thinking they own the road and that everyone else can eat dust.
Now, sports fans, there is never a good time for driver trouble to ever happen, regardless of what you may be doing at the time. So, one day, when I was browsing through some other forums right here on City-Data, I happened to spot what looked like a thread starter that a fellow C-D user initiated, and he shared this recent account which went viral not very long ago. Real life being shared here.
This account is too good to pass up. It goes like this.
A pickup truck was simply trying to merge into the right lane when an easily annoyed driver rolled down the window of his red Corvette and decided to flip the guy the bird. That’s when he got taught a nasty lesson he won’t soon forget. It’s safe to say he won’t make the same mistake again any time soon, but did he get what he deserved? You decide.
A red Corvette, captured in a now-viral video recorded in Tacoma, Washington, decided to learn road etiquette the hard way. Few things are as annoying as those who don’t show any consideration for the other drivers with whom they share the road. So, it’s easy to understand why the driver of a Dodge pickup truck became increasingly annoyed when all he wanted was to be given the space to merge into the right lane of traffic.
Instead of being allowed into the highway exit lane, he was met by a rude sports car driver’s ignorant behavior. Rather than let the pickup over, the man rolled down the window of his red Corvette to give the driver of the truck the finger instead. Fed up, the guy in the Dodge saw the perfect opportunity to enact his road rage revenge, and luckily for us, another motorist’s dashboard-mounted camera caught it all.
When the red Corvette driver, refusing to let the truck into his lane, rolled down the window to lean his arm out and give the man in the Dodge the finger, he left himself wide open — literally. He learned what a bad move he made when his rude behavior was quickly met with a face full of smoke after the Dodge driver positioned his vehicle just right and revved his engine in retaliation, blowing a tailpipe full of smoke right into the Corvette’s open window and into its driver’s face.
The man filming the video in the car behind the Dodge is heard laughing as the smoke takes about five seconds to dissipate. After the thick, black cloud of smoke cleared, the person recording the clip said the bold move had the desired effect. Lesson obviously learned, the driver of the Corvette let the truck in.
The end. For now.
