For your benefit and learning

I'm sure everyone has a subject that just doesn't make as much sense to them as they would like. I liked algebra because we got to make pictures.

Car Wars: To boldly go

It's hyperspace if you're in the Star Wars universe, warp speed if you're in the Star Trek universe. Either way, is there anyone who has driven in a snow storm who hasn't thought this?

And, by the way, Tiwi (the device that monitors missionaries' driving) doesn't care which one it is, as long as you're not driving aggressively. To paraphrase Han Solo's words, "Drive casual."
