I must be insane

[jTheUmp]

I grew up in a rural area. If something was 20 miles away, you knew you could drive there in about 20 minutes (unless the weather was bad). Now that I live in a big city, there's nothing that annoys me more then driving on a multi-lane freeway at speeds under 50 MPH.

If I'm going to spend 2 hours driving to a game, I'd much rather drive 110 miles then drive 20 miles in those 2 hours. But that's just me.

Alternatively, as one of the veterans officials in our association is fond of saying "If I told you there was $75 under a rock 100 miles from here, would you go get it? Probably not. But if I told you that you could drive 100 miles and spend 2 hours officiating a basketball game in front of a hostile crowd for that same $75, you'd do it."
