Drunk driving

So, I spent the last hour drunk-driving.

No, wait… that requires some explaination.

I bought a Playstation 2 last week. And a steering wheel (open-box, half-price), and Gran Tourismo 4. I like racing games, and I figure Kat isn’t around to fight over the TV. I was right: I’m having fun with it.

I decided I felt like a rum and coke tonight, so I made one. Then I decided that it wasn’t strong enough, so I stiffened it up a little. Then I finished it and stood up.

Then I thought, “I wonder what driving drunk is like”. GT4 is, after all, a pretty good simulation.

Long story short, drunk driving is a bad idea. Even virtually. Races that I should have won handily took 2–3 tries to win; there was a lot more slamming into stuff.

Stay safe out there, kids. Also, stay in school.

    Hah! Way to go, Greg. I don’t know too many people who can say they know from first-hand experience and lived to tell about it. M.A.D.D. should take you on as a spokesperson.

    Greg, you’re the best role model a boy could have.

    I’m glad something good has come out of my absence.
