Something tells me had we followed Jerry home from PA, I would have done a lot of this into Rick's ear.

actually I thought it was a relatively well behaved but well paced drive.
I'm not quite sure what Ellen is referring too.

I knew Jerry was full of when he claimed a 70mph average speed.

We might have averaged 70 if you count the 30 minutes we stopped for lunch

I am thinking the NE contingent should try out traveling to the dragon with the Metro crew this year. I hear they average 85mph and rarely stop for anything.

I said AVERAGE

We would need an invisibility cloak to average 100 and not get caught.
