A Caution Flag!

           SUNDAY, JUNE 7TH

           THE CAUTION FLAG!

   There's a big race at Pocono International
Raceway today. Thousands of spectators
head to the track each year to watch the
pros put the pedal to the metal and keep
turning left until somebody ends up in
the winner's circle.
    Many of the fans are fanatics!
    We think we saw one yesterday. Either
that or one of the race drivers got caught
up in one of our Interstate traffic jams
and found himself very late for the race!
     Either way somebody should have
called for a Caution Flag!
     I was driving my grandson on Route
115 in Bear Creek Township heading
towards his friend's baseball game.
     After several accidents, a couple
of them fatal, the speed limit on that
stretch of highway was set at 45mph.
    That's exactly what we were doing
when the black Porsche ignored the
No Passing signs and narrowly
missed us as he flew by at what I'd
estimate to be double our speed.
No chance for road rage here. He
was long gone and fast!
     Guess the guy wanted to show
everybody else on the road that he
belongs in the lead. That makes
his a ....Front Porsche!
     It's one of those times when you
get a picture in your mind. A vision
of someone in a badge standing
along side the vehicle that just
whizzed by, asking for the driver's
license and registration.
     I have no idea if that happened
somewhere up the road. There are
extra police patrols near the
Raceway during these big events.
     Hope one of them spotted our
speedster and gave him a souvenir! 
     That would really be good NEWS!
