Yeah, it sucks when you drive 25 miles to get somewhere, learn that the place is closed, but wait for an hour to turn around, and then drive 25 miles back home.
On the plus side, I figured out that a Honda Accord has slightly better acceleration than a Volvo (I can't remember the type now :\). My friend's car was faster in the end though...
.
And it was a 55 MPH road, so we weren't breaking any laws (on Long Island, you're supposed to go, minimum, 10 MPH over the speed limit, seriously
).
