    I've driven in Denver - it's not too bad. The only thing about driving in Denver that freaked me out was when I asked at the car hire place if they could explain a 4-way stop sign to me (as we don't have that concept) they said "Who ever arrives at the junction first gets to go first". So I reply "So what if two people arrive at the same time?" And the response from the woman with the most dead pan straight face I've ever seen (not a hint of humour) said "Who ever has the largest gun rack has the right of way". I don't even know what a gun rack looks like!

    I guess it's all what you're used to. I have a hard time tolerating congestion; spending an hour in traffic and barely traveling ten miles is not my idea of a relaxing afternoon. That said, i haven't been up there since they finished work on widening the north-south highway... i suppose it might have improved. :rolleyes: BTW - you're supposed to yield left at 4-way stops. Of course, you should use some common sense... ;)

      Nope, I ain't gay and my GADAR is real weak so here's my question ... if a guy is well settled (earns around $100K, has a house, a car etc.) and is in this 30s ... doesn't have a girlfriend and has never mentioned having one from the past ... is he gay ? -- moved at 15:29 Tuesday 5th December, 2006

      Either that or deep down he's a trekkie and too damn scared to get a date so he's content with working and whacking off to comics.

        I know a few like that. I suppose it's cynical, but i can't help but wonder if they didn't just get tired of being beaten finally. If so, it's unfortunate, as their tastes in women are every bit as bad as their tastes in men... :sigh:

        She's turned very "anti-male", and that's one thing I can't stand.

          OMG! I really laughed at your response. Technical answer, whomever is to the right goes first. A gun rack is usually at the back of a cab of a pickup (also called uke in Australia...not sure about GB). It basically looks like shelving without the shelves. Usually they hold three rifles/shotguns.

            Reading comics is no indicator of being gay. My husband is a HUGE comic fan (he only needs about 5 comics to complete the ENTIRE X-Men collection). But he's more Star Wars than Star Trek, as am I.

              I didn't say it was. I was saying that he may not get out much, and that's why he doesn't have a woman. Of course, I see the idiot one voters didn't waste time either. :laugh:

                To actually answer the question, the rule is whoever is to the right (ie, counter-clockwise) has the right of way. Sad to think how many people over here don't know this however when they plainly teach it in driver's ed.

                    Well, this will teach me to read the replies first before I reply. :doh: Leckey answered it too. Well, at least Colin will definitely know for next time.

                      Yes. -- modified at 6:20 Wednesday 6th December, 2006 Actually, it doesnt really matter. Provided you arent homophobic you will be able to make gay jokoes, or talk about it and related issues without him getting pissed off.
