He's lying.  He had to slow down to the legal limit several times due 
to traffic :)  We just may have set the record for cruising Seattle 
to Portland in fairly heavy traffic though.  Just so no one gets too 
upset, Brad showed restraint and did NOT race the fat ugly chick in 
the Tempo loaded with kids :)  She shoulda been shot for the way 
she drove with kids in the car, if not for her looks.  And the 
fastest we went was 122, not 120.  Gotta watch everything this guy 
writes :)
