A conversation with MM a little while ago.
manahan will: Jebus dood, I was within 6" of getting rear ended this morning on a down slope. I didn't even see the guy until he slid out in the lane to the right of me and came to stop less than a foot from me! I looked over and saw his eyes bugged out and he was panting like a dog in heat. His passenger was holding her chest and hyperventilating. God, would I have been smacked HARD
michwmars: oh crap!
michwmars: freaking IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!
manahan will: they came down the slope and into the left turn lane - which I was in and which was covered in snow/ice - way too fast. I never saw it. I was watching the light and waiting for the green arrow. I just would have been hit. SURPRISE!
michwmars: SUV?
manahan will: believe it or not... no. Saturn SLI with an idiot behind the wheel
manahan will: like the car I owned before that be-otch ass-clown woman hit me in 2004
michwmars: what in the hell is wrong with people?
manahan will: always in a fracking rush that’s what
manahan will: I just stared at him and I thought again and again, "you fucking ass-clown, if you'd have hit me and I could have gotten out the car I would have beat you to fucking death right here on the road, just beat you to fucking death in front of your girlfriend, wife co-worker whatever!"
michwmars: who could blame you?
manahan will: I like to drive, I just don't want anyone else on the road. Especially ass-clowns and hats!
manahan will: what a phone call that would have been this morning to Jenne. Hi Mrs. Burnham. This is officer Baba Ganoush of Montgomery county police. As soon as your husband is out of the hospital with a new back brace, he'll be in our lock up for beating the motorist to death that rear-ended him this morning.
michmars: ha!
manahan will: Oh and have a nice day!
We had a 25 minute blizzard, complete with white-out last night. I went in to Hobby Lobby---or as I like to call it, The Orgasmic Crafter---to buy my new Christmas Tree. It was cool, slightly cloudy, no breeze. Only ten minutes later I walked out the door to 40 mile an hour winds driving flakes the size of my thumb horizontally across the landscape. The two bridges between the store and my house had already iced up and since I'm out in the country, the closer to home I got, the less traveled/more snow covered the roads got. But I made it. And I love my new tree.
And now my best friend just gave me a new worry. That if my white vehicle goes off the side of the road, they won't be able to find me as I'll be the same color as the snow. Note to self: stop washing Jimmy. Aw hell, this comment is turning into a blog entry...
Posted by: juli on December 6, 2005 02:57 PMOh...and what I originally came here to say was that there was a story on the news Sunday night that gas pump prices had reached their lowest price in months and I cringed. Why? Because I knew when I drove to town in the morning, prices would be going up. Sure nuf, the next day saw an 8 cent a gallon increase...

I feel the exact same way. :-)
Posted by: Lee Ann on December 6, 2005 08:40 PMwell damn that guy for speeding
Of course you said you didn't see him comming? So what really happened? I thunks Mista Will has jumped to the conclusion to soon. So let us analyze the situation.
First of all remember, he was in a saturn. A Saturn is an approved by Will car! How could such a responsible car owner be an Ass-Hat?
What most likely happened was the alleged "ass-hat" in the saturn was a victim of a SUV, maybe even an H2 or worse yet the evil sonOFaH2 the all new H3. And maybe this evil SUV assKlown was even talking on a cell phone! So, this alleged "asshat" in the Mista Will approved Saturn was only trying to regain control after being almost hit by a True AssHAT SUV-H2 or H3 driver who thinks that they own the road since they have 4 wheel drive. xcept the 4wheel drive is no good on ice or for that matter its no good for nothing.
So Mista Will you owe the Saturn driver an apology and beware the SUV spirits are still on the attack!!!
Where's the picture?
yuk yuk yuk

Posted by: Will Burnham on December 7, 2005 07:43 AMOK you got me, the power of the Mini is to great!!!
Posted by: Push_My_Button on December 7, 2005 08:50 AMThe power of the MINI compells me! The power of the MINI compells me!
Nothing prevents ass-clowns and ass-hats from driving any vehicle, small or large. And I'm very glad that they weren't driving a minivan, truck or SUV of any kind - especially one of the monstrous ones - or they surely would have slammed into me with their un-maneuverable hog of a vehicle.
Happy motoring,
--Will
Ah, the joys of winter comuting! I remember them well! :-)

Hey H2Cousin,
You need to get some kicking Imperial logos and graphics for your H2. Then you can really be on the 'Dark Side'.
