1995 Toyota Avalon on I-91 (driver rant)

I got the following from the Hartford Advocate rant section... I busted out laughing and wanted to share the hilarity with you.

We had a deal, dumbass. You stay the hell out of the way of traffic and I will occasionally throw pieces of bread at you and your friends when I’m in the park.

But you decided to break that pact. You decided to wander haphazardly down the dotted white line that separates the exit 49 off-ramp with the far right lane of the interstate at 8 o’clock at night. That’s probably not the best place to be, seeing as how that would make you a black and white bird walking down a black and white line … in the dark. And what the hell were you doing traveling North anyway? Winter is coming. Go join all those smart geese that are flying SOUTH for the winter. Moron. Also, I don’t know if you’re aware, but you can fucking fly. There is absolutely no reason you ever have to walk across anything, let alone a busy highway.

By the time I saw you it was too late. All I heard was a thud and all I saw was a puff cloud of feathers in my rear view mirror. I’m sorry for hitting you, but seriously, use your head next time — if you still have one.

Cute, neh?

In other news, going to go to a birthday dinner later today... and before that, I get to trim the tree finally. Eggnog and roasted chesnuts may be consumed at this time. I am wondering though, with those of you who have had live tree experience: As the tree gets "older" after cutting, will the tree absorb less water over time through that cut? (Said cut was kept in water within minutes after felling and has been kept well watered since.)

OH. I am loving the Voyager marathon on Spike today. :D
