RACER 1^st at LIGHT

Lamesville, Fl. Joe Slow, a rush hour commuter and NASCAR fanatic, was first to arrive at every stop light Monday morning. Having watched four hours of NASCAR on ESPN the day before, Joe played out his fantasy of being a Winston Cup driver. With a Number 8 on the rear window of his car, Joe raced thru the streets during early morning rush hour traffic.  Motorist Bob Outhouse watch as Joe Slow zipped past him and almost side swiped his red Corvette. When Bob arrived at the same light beside Joe, Bob gave him the finger. “This went on for about three lights” Bob said, “until I had to make a turn off the main drag.” Although arriving at the light first, Joe was easily beaten off the line by Bob every time. “I wasn’t trying to race him off the line or anything” says Bob,” He was just screwing with the radio and wasn’t paying attention. I guess he was just in a hurry to get to the light”
