It is the time of year for frost, ice, and snow covered windshields.  I am lucky to wake up some mornings to find that my husband has scrapped my windshield for me.

commuting SAFETY tip:  Make sure your windshields are completely clear before you drive.

I found this on a Google search for "commuting is fun".  Credit goes to Charley Sainsbury
and I found the article at inventorspot.com.

"Commuting can be an extremely stressful part of your life, traveling to work in the morning and then reversing the trek at night.  Wouldn't it be great to be able to take care of this [traffic] problem on your own? How about having some type of crane mounted on the top of your vehicle with a big ole hook that would enable you to clear your own path?"

My thoughts.... The claw does not look like it can support that tonnage, there is an emergency vehicle already on site, and it looks like the red car can hover, so why use the claw?  Now I am just thinking of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and how great it would be to commute in that car (see video below, but please note that I didn't find any good ones of the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car flying)!







PS - Maybe if we all sang songs together on our commutes we would be happier.  Translated from 1968 into today's commuter terms - "carpool with people who are not tone deaf".

This is my humorous Toastmasters Speech Division D Contest performance (I was representing Frederick Toastmasters).  In this video I discuss how the hours we spend doing things will add up and how we could accomplish more if we could just utilize sleepwalking to take care of mundane tasks. 

This is the 4th speech that I have crafted and delivered.  I was excited to receive 3rd place at the Toastmasters Division level.

I hope you all enjoy and think it is a little bit funny - Judi Fox

Relevance:  I mention COMMUTING to work near the end of the speech.


PS - Here are some of my favorite Toastmaster Humorous Speeches that I found on YouTube and a website that I used for great tips from John Kinde and his blog posts at www.humorpower.com.

Disclaimer:  Commuting is actually not fun. Traffic should not replace your human relationships.  Seek help if you find yourself loving traffic.

Every morning I have to convince our dog that she doesn't want to commute 1 and 1/2 hours to work with me.  I have obviously made it look like a lot of FUN to her.  This cat has learned that commuting is FUN too!
 

This commute brings up some serious logistical questions:

1. How do you get back to work? 
2. Does everyone else at that office commute to your house too?
   
3. How long does it take pruney fingers to recover from the commute?
