Ok, down to business. Above is the answer to THE QUESTION. For those of you not of a nerd persuasion its from Hitch hikers Guide to the Galaxy. Gotta luv Marvin the Manic Depressive Robot....

Now for my gripe of today - why is it that women driving large 4WD with kids in the back think that they do not have to indicate on a roundabout? is there a stupid women in 4WDs exclusion to the Australian Road Rules? I think not. I mean really, when you have small children in the car, don't you think that you would be more cautious and therefore follow the road rules in a more diligent manner? Perhaps it is because these women in their petrol guzzling road hogging school zone hazardous death traps for kids vehicles that are predominately designed for OFF ROAD USE have a false sense of security and therefore invivibility while driving (or attempting todrive) these vehicles. GGGGRRRRR
If, by any chance you stumble on this blog and you ARE a 4WD driving female "mosman mum", please let me give you some advice:

* learn to park. Just because yr wheels are big enough that it is no trouble to go up a gutter accidently doesnt mean that it is ok. In fact it is an offence under the australian road rules.
*look when changing lanes. Bigger car equals bigger blindspots, which means you are more likely to miss those of us in smaller vehicles.
*look when reversing at shopping centres and driveways. Same reason as above.
* Your indicators ARE YOUR FRIENDS. I am less likely to almost plow into you if I am aware of where you are heading.
* BUY A NEW CAR. It is all a status thing for you people, so perhaps a nice merc? a beamer? They are not only expensive status symbols, they are also a safer and far more attractive alternative.

Ok I guess that is it from me I tend to go on a bit....
