finally, the air date for my cake!!!

Hey everyone,

As you know, my 40th bday cake has quite the story about it. Well, it definitely made it past the food network executives and my cake will be one of the cakes on the Season Premiere of Ace of Cakes on July 23! There is apparently a sneak peek on July 19, not sure if it's the whole episode or what. Anyway, set your TiVo's!

road rules

Attention MASS drivers, a few simple reminders regarding the rules of the road. You seem to have forgotten these. I have copied this from the most recent version of the driving manual from the MA RMV.

1. Yield - "When you see a YIELD sign, slow down and be prepared to stop. Let vehicles, bicyclists, and pedestrians pass before you enter the intersection or join another roadway. You must come to a complete stop if traffic conditions require it."

Translation: You do not have right of way when you have a yield sign.

2. Entering the highway (e.g. Mass Pike) - "As you approach and enter a highway travel lane, increase your speed to match that of vehicles already on the road."

Translation: If the onramp is long enough, use it to get up to the traffic speed on the highway. The Natick onramp to the Mass Pike is a good example. You have plenty of time to get up to the speed of traffic on that ramp. Please use it.

3. Driving on the highway - "Stay to the right and only use the left lane for passing. If you are traveling on an expressway with three or more lanes in your direction, treat the far right lane as a slower-speed through lane, the middle lane as a faster through lane, and the far left lane as the passing lane."

Translation: LEFT LANE FOR PASSING.

Thank you.
