Who are the Slowski's? No, not those two turtles from the Comcast commercials who are constantly trying to prove that "going slow" in life is a good thing. (They spell their name S-L-O-W-S-K-Y.)

The Slowski's are the two people that I pass almost every single time I'm driving on the Natchez Trace Parkway these days.
