It's going to cause a wreck.&nbsp; If it's an emergency, use your flashers and I will gladly get out of your way; that's what they are for.&nbsp; I understand being in a hurry but don't put other people in danger. It's not that important.&nbsp; urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:uber_nugget:598 2008-02-04T02:11:50Z 2008-02-04T02:11:50Z <div class='appwidget appwidget-qotd' id='LJWidget_2'> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td><div style='border: 1px solid #000; padding: 6px;'><p>Who is your favorite artist?</p><p style='font-size: 0.8em;'></p><br /><p><input type="button" value="Answer" onclick="document.location.href='http://www.livejournal.com/update.bml?qotd=292'" /> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.livejournal.com/misc/latestqotd.bml?qid=292">View 282 Answers</a></p></div></td></tr></table></div><!-- end .appwidget-qotd --> My favorite artist right now is Nightwish.&nbsp; My first favorite band was Iron Maiden.&nbsp; I was 14 when my dad bought me my 1st CD.&nbsp; I drove my mother nuts between Metallica and Iron Maiden, my dad couldn't have been happier.&nbsp; I grew up listening to country and classical because that's what my mother liked.&nbsp; Still have a sweet spot for classical, but left the country behind.&nbsp; I've been listening to Nightwish pretty exclusively lately.&nbsp; Their newest CD Dark Passion Play is a departure from there previous sound but is well worth the listen. &nbsp;
