Observations for the day
Took advantage of a day off to get out in the car and enjoy a warm
summer's evening while burning a few 2.689USD gallons of Saudi Juice. My observations: 1: I guess that our beloved president failed to suck off the crown prince and toss the king's salad this week. The price of gas here is up about 0.15USD over last week. 2: Proof that cops have quotas? I'm heading down 17 south (in the proper right lane) toward the Jekyll Causeway and approaching the Lanier Bridge. Approaching on my left and preparing to pass is a 5th wheel being towed by a as we will see woefully underpowered Toyota (I believe) pickup. As soon as we reach the bridge and begin the climb, the pickup- trailer combo starts slowing dramatically. Two cars behind the newly mited sloth is a Glynn COunty Police Car. You think that he would pull Mr. Sloth Wrong Vehicle For The Occasion/Mr. Sloth Incompetent Driver for LLB or obstructing traffic? Of course not. Glynn County's finest just slipped over to the right and passed the rolling (and slowing) road hazard. I guess this copper had already met quota and just wanted to get to doughnut time. 3: Did someone take 1/2 the population of Ohio and transplant it to Jekyll Island, GA? Never seen so many OH tags in one place in my life. 4: Speaking of OH drivers, the ones I observed today still have that annoying affinity for the left lane. Like the one who turned out from the shopping center and started heading south toward my northbound tail in the left lane. BTW it was a two lane road. 5: Thinking of the Island, this must be the only place where a drive at 35MPH is enjoyable. **** off, LBMHB! Also noted that the State Patrol is now using Dodge Chargers. Thanks for reading my rant. |
