Just Sayin'...

Just making some observations today.  Going with perspiration instead of inspiration.

     I don't want to hear a radio commercial that has these sound effects:  Police siren.  Screeching tires.  I'm driving 70 MPH (in the 70 zone) and I hear one of these noises from my radio, but I don't know it's my radio.  Get the picture?  Now my heart rate is double what is was a second before and my car seat is wet (and it's not because I have the seat heater on in my 2003 Kia Rio).

     I love the people who have to be about six feet behind me (at 70 MPH again) even though there are four lanes of traffic in the big people highway where all the adults drive their internal combustion engine vehicles (some are hybrids) and some people know that when you stop a car at 70 and there is a dumb person six feet behind you, you will die.  Some people know this.  Some don't.  They are dumb.  Yes they are.

     I cannot resist a book sale at the library.  If I see the sign and the sale is going on right now, I will buy at least one book.  Wait, I will buy at least one bag or box of books.  Yesterday, for the first time in my life I paid for books by the inch.  When I put my stack of books on the table to pay for them, the lady sitting there pulled out a yardstick.  I never went to Catholic school, but I had this vision of red train tracks across my palms.  Hey, it wasn't that at all!  She was measuring my stack.  I paid a dollar per inch.  Yesterday it was $15.50 and today it was $21.50.  I was going to say "you do the math," but I won't.

     That is all the observations I have today.
