fireworks and freeway speeds

Today I think I learned that you can see the 'A' Mountain fireworks from my house, but the ones at the Westin La Paloma are partially behind a bunch of trees. Neither display was all that compelling from something like 15 or 20 miles away.

Other than that, all I learned was that you can get a car up to 100 mph on the San Diego freeway at 2:15 am. And that Al Gore's son sounds like a moron.
