when ever I'm in Cali I start spouting off Arnie's most memorable movie lines in a fake accent "go, get to the chopper" or "who is your daddy and what does he do?" maybe  "I'll be back" ? (no to overdone)

I pass alot of cattle on the road and I always say moo, MOOO, moo (yeah I know, i'm a dork)

whenever I go through a border patrol check point on the side where they just take your picture, I make a face for the camera.

I sometimes do the universal sign to other truckers to honk THEIR horn, get some weird looks too  Cheesy

I like to keep a running count of how many people I see using cell phones in hands free states

and I listen to ALOT of talk radio. (I bet you knew that huh?)

I say Mooo for cattle too! And then I honk my stebel horn for them.

There are a lot of cattle in Montana so I will always know exactly where the horn button is when a deer or elk start to run in front of me. Its great practice and I always know that my horn actually works and hasn't blown a fuse or plugged up with water or something. Plus it amuses the cows and gives them something to talk about.

I can't help it I flashback to a droopy dog cartoon where droopy's a sheep rancher and he invades a cattlemans land. a bull busts into the cattle boss's office and says "MOOO! moo mmmoooo MOOOOOOO!"

Alphabet game, that's what I play.  goes like this, you start with "A", look for any road sign, license plate, billboard, what ever, that has the letter "A" in it, once you finish that, then you look for the letter "B", then comes "C"......  the letters "J" and "Q" are the hardest......

The only problem I have when I get bored and start singing is that my better half reaches down and unplugs the headset Grin Grin and I always thought I could carry a tune, but I have been told otherwise.. 2funny

I also moo at the cows and I count minimoos (what I call calfs).  Yeah, I'm a dork too.  I once counted people on cell phones, now I count those not on cell phones.
