How long to go 80 miles at 80MPH?

A difficult math question. One would hope that these two did not finish high school. If they did, public education needs to refund our money.

They probably at least graduated high school in the inner city, which is bad enough.

Common Core will say it depends on whether the driver is white or black. The black driver will be stopped by police at least twice on the drive, so you will have to add at least 15 minutes per stop.

The white driver will be privileged to have a Lexus with all the modern conveniences, but the minority driver will be in a clunker that will overheat on the way, so add another 20 minutes for the radiator to cool down.

The Dewey and commie-infiltrated public education system was designed to bring about this result.

Kids who don't know how to think.

How can a nation survive when most of its citizens can not think well enough to do simple math let alone protect our God-given liberties?

As I get more desperate for a long car trip to end, I start calculating in my head the minutes to completion, usually based off of 85 (my typical speed).

For whatever reason, it’s easier when the miles-to-go are bigger than 85, so like 170 is “2 hours,” no thinking

But when the distance-to-go is smaller than 85, I start having problems.

Now, sitting here at a desk, I can do it, but driving somehow uses up that bit of my brain that I use to perform division and I get flustered. That, or I am tired from driving.

Regardless, it’s a way to pass time.

If you drive South eighty miles, then drive West eighty miles, then drive North eighty miles and arrive back where you started, where are you?
