thank you, ralph nader

Growing up, I was enamored of fast cars. Thus, I viewed Ralph Nader as Satan incarnate due to his support of the completely moronic 55 mile per hour national speed limit.

A couple of weeks ago, I crashed my Acura RSX Type-S into a jersey barrier at approximately 65 mph, spun, and went back across the freeway. I had to apply the brakes to keep from hitting the other wall. Before all five readers ask, no, I was not drunk.

I walked away from the crash. If one is going to crash, I highly recommend doing it in a Honda product. I would like to thank Mr. Nader for promoting various safety features such as air bags, crumple zones, and seat belt pretensioners, which all worked together to save my dumb ass.

    That sucks! So how did it happen? Was it wet? Racoons? Do you have any post-wreck pictures?

    Ugh. Good luck finding a replacement or repairing the RSX.

    Before Nader went off the deep end in 2000, he was a real American hero. Glad you’re OK.
