As my father says, driving through Boston is the worst place he's ever driven -- the only place he's driven where the people behind you at an intersection start honking their horns for you to go when the people on the other street get a yellow light.

Ugh. I've lived here in the Cape Ann area of Massachusetts for nearly four years now. Although I'm a scant forty minutes or so from Boston proper, I've probably gone into the city a sum total of seven or eight times. I can't stand the place. Its roads are about as jumbled as a plate of spaghetti, its drivers wrote the book on rudeness, and of course there's the sheer traffic congestion. Double ugh. I dread the approaching day of "Jetsons"-style hovercars. Bostonites will no doubt figure out how to override the automatic computerized navigation systems and program in some really aggressive driving routines.
