I drive around the speed limit usually, maybe a little faster... but I swear, around where I live... people are such idiots! They are either riding my ass or they are in front of me going ten or more below the limit. Don't get me wrong, I love driving fast. When there's not many other cars on the highway, I enjoy speeding... but not when there are tons of other cars around you. My friend in high school, and many other people who live around here, have lost their lives because of bad driving habits. (And I'm not just talking about driving drunk.) Sorry but it's a sensitive issue with me.

Personally I feel most alive when doing these things...
-At a music concert. Whether it be seeing the local Symphony performing Pictures at an Exhibition live at the Santa Cruz Civic Center, or being in the crowd at a Gogol Bordello concert... if it's good music and everyone around me is enjoying it as much as I am, that is the best high in the world for me.
-Snowboarding down a long, white trail with nobody in the way... just hearing the noise beneath my feet and my breathing...
-Horseback Riding. I did this from high school until last year... I formed a real connection with the horse that I rode, and I miss her so much. (She passed on last year.)
-Boating. Rivers, the ocean, lakes, anything......I love being on the open water.

I crossed the 150 mph line every day for six months out of every year for several years. I have been pulled over at triple digit speeds twice. Once, I was let go. The other time, a Connecticut State Trooper chatted with me for a bit and issued me a no points, $75 failure to obey a highway sign ticket.

Currently, my driving record is flawless. No tickets or insurance claims show up on my record for over ten years.

The lesson about how to deal with the officer who has stopped you is for advanced/gifted students.
The one about keeping it within a certain range of speeding is adequate for most beginners.

Lesson #1: be white.

Seriously - let a Latino (like me) or a black guy get caught doing that shit and watch what happens.

jdfu!

I also have a very, very successful history with juggling residences and court dates to keep my record clean. Some of it was luck, but ... yeah, I'm not advising this. I am just showing off.

I feel pretty fucking alive right now.

I just got home, and I drove with the stereo blasting. Sethie's top speed for the night: 105mph. I rule.

HEY I went 110 tonight on the highway! Yay I love speeding. Mapquest told me it would take me 20 minutes to get to where i needed to go. I got there in 7.

Damn, you beat me. But it's okay, because my car tops out at 105. It goes faster downhill, but there are no good hills that are safe enough to go faster than 120.

you people are going to get yourselves killed. ~frowns~

You only say that because you're not cool enough to drive fast like us. If you lived close to me, I'd come pick you up and teach you how to drive really really fast.

Caddy, on second thought, we'll let Mr. Numbers teach you how to drive fast. What the fuck were you driving that could go 150?

Also, semi-unrelated, but when I'm rich and famous I'm buying a Bugatti Veyron. It's the fastest street-legal production car in the world, with a top speed of 253mph ...that's like, four-hundred something kilometers per hour for you non-american folks.

My driving record is semi-clean. I've had three moving violations (all misdemeanors, one for driving over a median, one for failing to maintain a single lane, and one for street racing, which shouldn't even be there, but that's a long story) but no points or traffic school or anything. I've been pulled over twice for speeding, but I've gotten really cool cops. One of them knew my dad, and the other I used to party with in high school, which was just fucking trippy, because he smoked tons of weed back then. I think lesson #2 is pray that you know the cop that's pulling your over, or pray that you have dirt on him that could fuck up his career in the law enforcement field...like a picture of him ripping a bong. That's something which inevitably leads us to life lesson #1: Never let your friends take pictures of you doing anything illegal. They'll hold it against you forever.

More than one vehicle I have owned would do 150... or 170. The partner in crime which allowed such consistent speed was:

[dangerpants]

Oh, and Ms. Dangah, you don't ever go over the limit in the 'burbs?  Hmmmm?

I sometimes go 30 on Main Street accidentally (because I don't need my foot on the gas in the slightest), but beyond that, I am so freaked out by the vanbeast's size and shakiness... And the number of cops in Hummelstown and Middletown...

Singing at the top of my lungs when I'm all alone.  Or on stage.  That works too.
Painting to music in my headphones (dancing with color, really).
Walking around in the woods/fields at night.
And fucking, of course.

Hey, this is my first post.  Nice to meet you.

[angryinch]

Walking in a public place, in a park or alone with amazing music playing in my headphones and feeling like the most awesome, creative, hilarious person to exist.

There's nothing like a sport bike at wide-open throttle to get the heart pumping, but they need to be able to do. 180 at least

Listening to the Clash (sounds lame, I know, but there you go!)

Driving on a motorway at night

Doing Badness - smoking various substances, being places I really oughtn't be, with people who I really shouldn't be with, and so on.

Second that one.

I think it's a common thing - probably a profound self-ruiny psychological fuck-up. Or maybe we all just like to kid ourselves we're rebels.

I love walking, with a vague destinaton but all the time in the world. Especially yesterday, when it was breezey, and the sun was setting. It was just fantastic.

speed, feeling the wind against my body and through my hair and when I just go so fast I begin to think how to stop without killing myself with a bad move 
when performing something on stage, with the audience and all...
