Since many have experienced a first blast of winter weather for the season I thought I would take a moment and reflect on a weather related phenomenon.
What is it about crappy weather that makes people lose their minds? With the storm that blew through the mid-West and East Coast this week, there was a lot of questionable judgement on display.
You can rest assured that soon after it starts raining or snowing you are going to hear rescue sirens racing to the seen of an accident. It's as if people forget the rules of driving, or forget that they are driving.
Fashion sense usually takes a hit, as well. What makes a guy think that crazy Russian-style winter hats or Australian outback hats are remotely suitable for urban wear? I'm no fashion maven, but certain things just don't work.
When the weather gets poor, take a breath and evaluate your decisions. Slow down your driving speed, increase your following distance, and for God's sake scrutinize you fashion choices.
