Boy, I'd LOVE to have a commute of 30 minutes. It takes me over an hour to go 19 measley miles!!!! And I don't live in a big home but a ranch style in an average neighborhood. This morning it took one of my co-workers almost 45 minutes to go 7 miles. It doesn't matter how far away you live or what sized house you live in, it all depends on the amount of nut jobs out on the roads in the mornings (and afternoons for that matter).
