*Due to some complaints that my post was biased and inaccurate (from a lady named R...), here's the revised version.
It all started when the rest of the table were discussing restrictions on highway speed limits. And how the consensus is that in some ways it's often too restricting for it to be practical. There's no point being judgemental as you're we're all guilty of breaching the government mandated requirement one way or another. But whatever reasons we have, nobody seems to be so proud of it other than Rayana.
Tim exlains with his luvly british accent : "Bloody hell Rayana, why do you always go over the limit when you drive?" "But nobody's on the road!" "It's because I was really late and I was really annoyed with the way slow people drive." Rayana says defensively "and that's how we used to drive back in Germany. No speed limits!"
"But that's in the autobahn. Not on regular streets. Perhaps you'll attain the wisdom of speeding when you get to be as old as Jane", Tim says.
Now there are about a 100 odd things that you don't guess at a woman. Here's 2 of them "You're pregnant aren't you?" and "You look great for a xx year old.". Trust me, I know. I've been burned.
Back at the table, everybody just turned silent with all eyes fixated on Jane, nervously anticipating her reaction. This has got to be one of those "Even Jane" moments.
Of course, Jane, with her good nature and all took it quite well and exclaimed:"Where did that come from? You're decades older than me!!!".
Whew. In all honesty, I was jumpy. My hands were poised to dial emergency services just in case Jane thinks of jumping and strangling the life out of him. hee hee.
Next Chapter : Mary Poppins gives Tim some lessons.

oh, what a load of BULL! Never said Back in Germany and NEVER said i was PROUD to drive fast. I was just annoyed with people who drive REAL slow! and oh yes, when i'm late i fly too low.
oh and Tim having a LUVLY(?!) brittish accent? Puh-lease!
Chris - fix the blog or i will. We're supposed to report what we discussed, not discuss what we reported. (you know what i mean!)
hehe, speaking of speed limits and speeding in general. Muhannad asked me today why i was running away from him last week. I wasn't i said, just driving home. But he made anote of the fact that i kept changing lanes as crazy and driving way too fast and he was sure i was running away from him. Too fast for a woman, his exact words (god rest his soul)! yes, i have a competitive gene and i always challenge myself into getting into narrows spaces, but so far didn't hit anyone (knocks on Chris's head) and caused no accidents, just heart attacks.
