Actually, something like 60%+ of Americans are overweight.

Traffic? Traffic is bad when there are three cars in front of me at a stop sign. We have... 2 stoplights that I ever see, with a third one being put in. Whoohoo!

A dump truck hit the bridge that goes over the interstate to get to my school. So they had to close off one lane on the bridge to fix it. So they put a stop light in. Which make a 1 mile drive that usually takes 3 or 4 minutes take 15 or 20 minutes.

yum my school is about 5 miles from my house actually probably a little less. But the speed limit doesnt go above 40 which is a joke on a certain straight away which your slow for going less than 45-50 on. Anywasy it should take about 10 minutes. Fastes ive done it was 7. On the regular mornign school commute it takes about 30 minutes.
