Friday Mailbag: I survived the 2011 Jim Traber reflective vest

11:58 AM EST on March 2, 2012

As I mentioned yesterday, I took a one-night trip to Dallas on Wednesday to see some family, catch a Stars game and smuggle in some six-point Bud Light. Thursday was supposed to be a mini day off, but when I woke up to see that Clark Mathews' published an OSU basketball post about a period of time known as the "Clark Matthews' Era," I quickly wrote something about the Devon tower.

After I hit the publish button I packed up my laptop, drank a glass of orange juice, grabbed my duffel bag and walked out the door. I then hopped in my car and took to the road. I'm kind of Constanza'ish when it comes to highway driving, so I get a rush when I drive through Texas. The people there don't understand the "slower vehicles keep right" concept, so it's  fun to veer in and out of traffic passing the methhead cowboys and there Datsun pick-ups.
