I was a freshman in high school when I was riding with my neighbor and my sister to school. On the way there, he went through a yellow light, and he lifted his hand, swiped it along his roof and on the way down, tapped the dashboard , and he put his hand back on his side, and proceeded to drive like nothing was off or wierd. I wondered, and asked my sister later on. I was new to high school and didn't want to ask someone who would later become the quarterback for the high school team, Mark Eldred, in case a few of you are wondering. Anyway, my sister told me it was a superstition, a good luck thing. If you go through a yellow light, you swipe your hand and tap the board for good luck, "So what about a red light?", I asked her. "You kiss your hand and tap your behind." I laughed in confusion. "Why?" "You kiss your ass goodbye! Hope you don't get pulled over!"
Since that day, I eventually adopted the absurd gesture for luck purposes. Some of you have seen me do it. Why rely on luck and superstition? Did you not read the reply to Bo's post where I layed out my driving record?
So what would I do in the picture above?

Swipe, tap, swipe, tap...I remember the first time I saw you do this back in 1994..phew, that was eons ago...and I asked you "what did you just do with the swipe thing?" This was when you first taught it to me. I can't believe I remember that day...this was before the never ending road in the dark on HWY 6 scenario....Needless to say, I don't drive under the influence of illegal substances anymore.
I so remember that night! LOL! Tears in eyes!! Never drive an isolated road under the influence!!
