    RW> Nope. The headset has your fully captured attention while the radio

   My concentration is solely on what is going on around me because of the idiocy   
   of some drivers in this area.  I was driving to WallyWorld and was behind a   
   woman in an SUV who was on her cell phone the whole time.  Well, it must have   
   been an important call because she didn't stop talking when she exited her   
   vehicle and made her groceries.  It just so happened that she was shopping for   
   the same things I was and she held that conversation all the way through the   
   checkout and back to her car.  That's just one case in point.

   Back in my drag racing days, I had both hands across at the top of the wheel   
   when driving down the road.  If I had to make a turn onto another road, the   
   turning hand would force the other out of the way.   
      
    RN> I haven't had a babe in 5-years.  Too bad.  I really liked her.   
      
    RW> They're nice to have, most of the time. There are other occasions

   Yes.  (-:
