Yeah, it's pretty hard to just walk away from yourself!

Yes it is a motor cycle, it is old American slang. The Idiot in question is so afraid people will think that he is not politically correct, that I am not allowed to speak in public.
BTW; I quit this morning.

Good for you Fargon! Sanity is something you can't buy.


People that are annoying me today:

Anti-smoking nazis. I was having my morning break this morning and went outside to have a cig. I was standing by the curb already when some women came walking by. One of them comments to her friend loud enough for the next town to hear that "Jeez! Cigarettes make me sick!"
I gave her my standard response just as loud: "Yeah, well they're KILLING me but you don't hear ME bitching about it!"

I got the standard "fuck you!" response. :-)

Never have understood that attitude. I have battled with the evil weed for more years than I care to name, have given up for years and months at a time (am currently back on the nicoteine lozenges: 14 days today and counting), but even when I was a year in to quitting, I would never have taken that attitude. Cool retort btw

They're planning on putting a bunch in here in Raleigh as well. And the idea is not being taken well.

speaking of nazis, i cant abide food nazis. up their ass people preaching about what food we should eat, what we shouldnt, what we should feed our children. fuck off! all that fruit and veg youre buying to prolong a life that already lasts too long has been irradiated, treated and sprayed and fuck knows what else. kids are going without food at school because Jamie Oliver decided he had the answer to unruly kids, i.e., their eating habits. so waht?! just eat what you like, what the body craves, and tell these nazis to mind their own fuckin business.

Another kind of food nazi. The kind that could starve a country.

That sucks, Griff. The more troubled their economy becomes the more he will rail against the US in a typical diversionary tactic.

No problem. As long as insurance stops covering Type II Diabetes.

As for roundabouts, they caught on as a hip thing in Austin a few years back, but they were installed in all the wrong places--small residential intersections where they literally amount to nothing more than an obstruction in the middle of the road that you have to swerve around. They've been slowly taking them out.

That's exactly where they're putting them in here Still it keeps the locals busy -planting flowers in the middle for the teenagers tio drive over, and going to meetings about getting instructions posted, stop signs installed, roundabouts removed.....

There also seems to be a fad at new high schools for building a ring road around them, with a roundabout at every parking lot entrance point and every exit point. It's a bit Hotel California-ish becasue on the way in, you just head for the building, but on the way out.......
