David,

Are you suggesting that there are those among us who would stoop to such 
shenanigans?

Yeah, yeah . . .  we've all seen this and discussed it.  But it has me thinking!

Witness the Pantera Urban Legends:

**    Traversing NM at average speeds well over 100mph [1],
**    The wholesale closing of  southbound I15 to intercept a convoy,
**    The infamous Cruise to Mt. Charleston interception,
**    Traversing a sparsly populated western state at speed which precluded the 
county law enforcement aircraft from keeping up,
**    the first use among law enforcement of the term "shoot on sight speeds"
(all of which sound very much like something old Bill Fries would sing about:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C._W._McCall  )

which all causes one to wonder if such behavior without adult supervision is a 
good idea.

If the Mid America Pantera Squadron Road Trip to Phoenix will meet me in 
Albuquerque, perhaps together we can enjoy the Cruise to Lordsburg via the 
Backdoor. (116 miles) 


"Backdoor into Lordsburg" (sounds like a C&W song, donut?)  OK, all together now 
(to the tune of Last Train to Clarksville) "Its the Backdoor to Lordsburg, 
they'll meet me in T or C . . . ."

Mid America Pantera Squadron Road Trip to Phoenix, Rocky Mountain Division

[1] Actually not a legend, but a first hand fact!
