who can chat with strangers?, page-62

Tree's amazing how a smile or pleasant remark can change a persons disposition.

It's has become some what standard when greeting some one to say "hello how are you" as a polite gesture and not really. I will often reply "Absolutely bloody marvellous" which gets a surprise reaction and I follow with "not really but if I say it often enough I start to believe it.

People need to chill, all to often they get worked up over nothing and rush around but don't get anywhere quicker.

Just yesterday afternoon I was driving a long and was about to start passing a semi when I saw him indicate to change to the lane I was in so I slowed down to allow him to do so. He noticed wound down his window and gave me a thank you wave. Nice to know he appreciated it.

All to often I see situation where people simply refuse to let some one change lanes in front of them. It's like one car length, what's the problem?
