Plateau at 500

Wednesday, April 20th, 2005 | Uncategorized

I have been doing this speed reading thing for the past few days. I have actually managed to increase my WPM from 136 to 502. Every day I have gained a lot of speed, until today. I actually dropped a couple words per minuite. Perhaps my eyes are getting tired, or else it might be that my comprehension is going up from when I first got over 500…

Quite honestly I am not really sure. I kind of wanted to get 1200 words per minuite or so, I guess I will have to keep trying.

Other news, I ran the gauntlet today. Apparantly there was some sting opperation on the Beltline in Madison. It’s just a stretch of road that people travel very fast on, and for good ol 4-20 the cops decided their time was better spent catching people speeding.

I personally counted 7 police officers on my journey up the beltline. According to newspapers there were 15, using such dicky under cover cars as a white truck with a ladder on top that looks just like a normal utility truck. Those 15 cops issued just over 300 tickets, and 400 warnings. In one day!!!!!! That’s insane, people like to drive fast, SO WHAT… There are no people walking on the beltline, fuck, let em go 100 if they want so long as they have a completly open lane.

I didn’t get a ticket, but it still seemed dicky to me.
