Okay, so I was driving home after grocery shopping yesterday. I was minding my own business, just driving on the freeway. I didn't even have the radio on. Someone cuts across 2 lanes of traffic, barely missing my front bumper, to exit the freeway. I am not kidding you, he came so close to my car I could see the crooked part in his passenger's hair as the car came whizzing past me. As well as the looks of horror on that passenger's face (who was chewing a big wad of gum), and the grins on the other passenger's face.

I'm not kidding, it was really that close.

The upshot of this is that he had about a mile before he needed to get into the exit lane . . .

That's why I hate driving.

That's why I hate driving.

That's cuz you live in the land of the fruits and nuts.
LOL!!!

FJD!!! How are you?!!
I have had that exact same thing happen.
They sound like they were young-uns; the one that cut me off like that, he was our age.
Something wrong with folks who have a death wish.

Dude!! I've missed you. Are you coming to our NYE party like last year?

 

[Heart of a Seeker]

Ok, can I do a political rant here? I was walking out of Target yesterday and I overheard two old guys blaming Bush for all the trouble that Saddam Hussein caused. My gosh - I felt like going back and knocking their heads together - HARD. I can't believe the way people think - or don't think...

That grinning passenger won't be smiling when he's pinned in a wreck, thanks to his crazy friend. Which is pretty inevitable. I just get incensed about traffic because what right does any driver have to take *me* or anyone else down with him?

Anyway, great to see you, FJD!

I know exactly how you feel!! My daughter's car was totaled, when an idiot decided to make a left turn across traffic, in front of her! Her said he didn't see her!! How can you miss a bright red car?? Thank God for shoulder harnesses and air bags! She wasn't injured, but her car is not fixable! This happened 2 weeks after she picked it up from being fixed after getting rear ended!!

My point exactly. I have to admit, I did my best Samuel L. Jackson impersonation (from the "Snakes" movie) the rest of the drive home .

I got home and said "someone tried to kill me while I was driving just now!" The reply was 'what else is new?'

Then I told the story. Oh.

And it's good to be seen Jenster.

At least your daughter wasn't physically hurt, though that might be small consolation. Lemme guess the coda to the story: the other driver wasn't insured.

That's another pet peeve, but I won't go on about it.

I've missed y'all too. Not sure if I'll be around or not tonight yet. I'm trying to avoid someone around these parts, so I might.

You can hide behind me...just remember that at midnight

We could all hide behind you and do the bunny hop....

Huh. I think the car might've had NV plates . . .

I was shouting 'if you want to kill yourself, that's your business, but don't take me out too!' Among other things.

I just don't want to die b/c I bought some bread, ya know?
