A Growing Problem (not a going problem)

I've recently become very concerned with the quality of automobiles on the road. The problem that I am seeing is very pervasive. It happens on all makes, models, and vintages of vehicles. In general, it is an intermittent problem, but the frequency that I observe this problem is rapidly increasing. My car has not experienced this problem yet, but with this growing problem, I wanted to spread the word, so you can be on the lookout for it.

Put simply, the problem is that turn signals are not working in these vehicles. Every single day I seem to be behind a vehicle that is affected by this problem. Perhaps it is electrical in nature. Has the government been conducting tests with EMPs (electro-magnetic pulses)? Or have solar storms been on the rise? I think if it was either of those, the effects would be much more wide-spread than just affecting turn signals. Whatever the cause, please help spread awareness, and regularly test your turn signals before making turns.

Thank you.

Quick Thoughts 12/3

• We were bowling with some friends last night, and I wound up rolling the highest three game series of my life. 177, 203, and 178 for a 558 series. Not too shabby, especially considering it was that crazy black light bowling, and we were next to some kids who had zero bowling etiquette.
• That reminds me of one of my first 200+ games of my life. I was on a date in high school and we went bowling. She was getting about a 50 and I ended up with 201. I really felt awful.
• Hey the Bears won the NFC North today. Congratulations to "the pride an joy of Illinois."
• That was one ugly game today.
• I'm still supporting Rex Grossman, but he's really making it difficult for me to do so. I really don't know why he keeps trying to force the deep ball. It really is getting to be maddening.
  
• Whoever thought Brian Urlacher was over-rated must have been on crack. I swear he is in on every tackle. It's a pretty safe bet that no other Bears will be wearing #54 in the future.
• It was apparent to me today how good Brad Maynard, the Bears' punter is. The Vikings' punter had a few shanks, but Maynard was a picture of consistency. It's the little things like punting that can really make a difference in a game. Dan, I know you've always appreciated Maynard too.
  
• Iowa gets to play Texas in the Alamo Bowl. That's not going to be pretty Hawkeye fans.

• The Bears play the Vikings this weekend. A co-worker of mine suggested that if the Vikes win, I have to shave, and if the Bears win, he will. I might take him up on that. I'm pretty confident that I'll be keeping my whiskers.
• Yet another reason Legos are so darn cool. Just six, eight stud bricks can be arranged 915,103,765 different ways.
  
• Now for some fun. How nerdy are you? I'm not as bad as I thought.

You Are 36% Nerdy

You're a little nerdy, but no one would ever call you a nerd. You sometimes get into nerdy things, but only after they've become a part of mainstream culture.
