Annnnd, Work.
So I was just about to lie back down and let my sinuses explode in reasonable quiet when i got the call to deal with some work related silliness.
I really am supposed to be on vacation.
So i run in and deal. No biggie, it gives me leverage to take some time next week I’ll need for the Roe and Roeper show.
On the way in, I pass a center lane Caddie CTS doing 50. As I motor by on his left he glares at me as if to say “No 14 year old SUV is gonna outrun me!” And he puts down the phone and guns it, catching up with me in a couple miles. Then he picks up the phone again and I end up having to pass him AGAIN, this time he’s so distracted he doesn’t even see me till I’m quite a distance ahead of him and then guns it to catch up with me again.
I have it on cruise the whole time; traffic is light and I can just set it and, as Ron always said, forget it. So Mr Caddy that Zigs is ahead of me, then on the phone, then ahead of me, then on the phone, and by the time I get to work he’s trying to catch up with me AGAIN. Dude, you been pwned by an Exploder on cruise control.
Good lord, people are strange.
Roe and Roeper? Are you going to one of their “remotes”? Some day I would love to go to their Christmas show and see “The Gunnie” up close and in person.
The best word for those drivers is “obliviot”. I can’t claim to have come up with it, but I’m doing my best to spread the word.
Unfortunately, as with many things, the ones the word most applies to are the ones least likely to believe it applies.
Obliviot. I like it. It rolls nicely off the tongue.
Roe and Roeper? WTH?
Christmas show. We try to go eveyr year.
Oh. For some reason I thought they were going to interview you or something.
Then again I don’t know where the hey my head’s at this month. Ever since I took the Vicodin to quell the wisdom tooth pain….
Obliviot! I love it…will tell it to my kids, will be viral in Boston.
But it is funny, you pass an outstanding citizen going 55 in a 65 zone and they always speed up. Always, and then the dbag going 75 wants to get by and you can’t move right,
Classic!
