I'm sorry, but that brings to mind a back-in-the-day story -
It was a cool evening in Danville, CA, when my 8 month pregnant wife started having labor pains. No worries, I thought, the planned delivery by Caesarean section was not for two weeks.
Well, the baby wasn't going to wait. I dumped the other child at the neighbors and loaded my screaming wife up in my MGB, jumped on the freeway, and headed for the designated hospital in Los Gatos, about 50 miles away.
We made it in record time (later calculated to average over 100 MPH - all freeway) with horn blaring and lights flashing. Not a cop in sight the whole trip to escort us -
We made it just in time. After a night in the hospital and wife and new son were stabilized, I headed home. Yep, about half way home a CHP pulled me over for speeding and wrote me a ticket. I mumbled under my breath - where in the hell were you last night when I needed you -
THE END
