I have to confess!

I drive an 18 wheeler every night from southern Indiana to Michigan. I drive mostly two lane roads until I reach I-94 in Northern Indiana. Last night between the hours of 1 am and 3 am I would blow my air horns repeatedly whenever I came upon a Romney yard sign. I also blew my horns a few times when I saw Obama signs, but only if I saw their lights on.

Childish? Maybe, but hell I was celebrating and having a great time!

Just for the heck of it. Man, that brrrrrrrrr sound is so bad. They actually have signs up in some areas to tell trucks not to engine break.
