Ok… I know it has been a long time since I last posted but I am making a conscious effort to start blogging again. What has got me so fired up? Idiotic driving! A few days ago I was making my usual morning trek across the Twin Cities. As I approached the 494 & 35W junction (one of the busiest in the area) I made the mistake of looking over at the traffic merging and what did I see? A woman merging into my lane of traffic while she was looking in the mirror applying her hairspray! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Granted I have seen plenty of crazy things on my morning commute, including: drivers eating a bowl of cereal, applying make-up, and reading books and newspapers but this was by far the most reckless in my opinion. What is this world coming to? Are we so time starved the we would risk our lives (and the lives of others – me) so we can squeeze in an extra couple of minutes? Am I crazy or is this just the new normal?
Wow – I’ve been waiting 10 months and 13 days for your next blog post and this is all I get? Broken Spines used to be worth reading.
