A lesson for men

A LESSON FOR ALL MEN

I was riding to work yesterday when I observed a female driver cut right in
front of a pickup truck causing him to Have to drive on to the shoulder to
avoid hitting her.

This evidently angered the driver enough that he hung his arm out his
window and "flipped" the woman off. "Man that guy is stupid" I thought to
myself.

I ALWAYS smile nicely and wave in a sheepish manner whenever a female does
anything to me in traffic and here's why:

I drive 48 miles each way every day to work - that's 96 miles each day.

Of these 16 miles each way is bumper-to-bumper.

Most of the bumper-to-bumper is on an 8 lane highway.

There are 7 cars every 40 feet for 32 miles.

That works out to be 982 cars every mile or 31,424 cars.

Even though the rest of the 32 miles is not bumper-to-bumper I figure I
pass at least another 4000 cars.

That brings the number to something like 36,000 cars that I pass every day.

Statistically, females drive half of these.

That's 18,000 women drivers!

In any given group of females, 1 in 28 has PMS - that's 642.

According to Cosmopolitan 70% describe their love life as dissatisfying or
unrewarding - that's 449.

According to the National Institute of Health 22% of all females have
seriously considered suicide or homicide - that's 98.

And 34% describe men as their biggest problem - that's 33.

According to the National Rifle Association 5% of all females carry weapons
and this number is increasing.

That means that EVERY SINGLE DAY, I drive past at least 1 female that has a
lousy love life, thinks men are her biggest problem, has seriously
considered suicide or homicide, has PMS and is armed.

Flip one off? - I think not.

If you lived closer to work....... problem solved! Sounds like you should do
something about it.
