Enemy Union

I came very close to uniting with the guy in the black truck this morning to take out a mutual enemy in the continual road war I fight every day. A woman managed to cut both of us off this morning and for a split second, we glanced at each other through our windows, both of us had our faces contorted in annoyance, and then we started laughing. War I tell you. He zoomed off and the two of them played a very dangerous game of cat and mouse while I stayed far enough behind to feel reasonably safe. I did however consider speeding up to help the notorious guy in the black truck block her in. I'm proud of myself that I refrained from doing so.

I'm starving today. I don't know why but I have this amazing unsatisfiable hunger going on. I hate that. I know that this isn't a subject that anyone really cares about aside from myself, but you're going to read about it any way. Why? Because I'm the one typing.

Today the highlights of my news reading morning come down to three stories.

1. Child molester gets life in prison. Check the story out on MSN news, this guy deserves to be in prison and raped nightly until the day he dies. Sicko, I'm thrilled that he will no longer be a loose predator.

2. Purse snatching in church thwarted. Who goes around snatching purses in church? That's just wrong. Don't steal, period, let alone from any kind of gathering where people are worshipping what ever they believe in spiritually. Mainly because if you get caught those people will feel the right to act as the hand of what ever deity they believe in and smote your ass. In this case two men tried to make off with plastic bags of purses, and the elderly rose up and beat the tar out of them. Good for the seniors! Beat them down!

3. Mountain lion attack victim is now in critical condition. A California, bay area, hiker was attacked by a female mountain lion last week. The gentleman is in his seventies, and has a very dedicated lovely wife pictured at his side. Over the weekend his condition worsened and he is now in critical care. Everyone who has ever lived in California knows about the mountain lions, when I was little we had one that romped around in our field, but it is easy to forget. It is a grisly reminder of how low on the totem poll we really are. I hope for the best for this gentleman and his family. It's sad news. Hopefully his deity is with him.
