The government will at least start a program that will create positions that pay people to give your money to other people. Giving the government a raise via taxes is really just an all around win for everyone.

Anyone else irritated at the way that youtube videos now pop up the ads over the last 1-2 seconds of every video? Very annoying.
Cha-lee can do a whole stage in about 3 seconds, and when youtube pops up new videos over the last two seconds, I miss most of the stage!

As I have been spending WAY too much time on the interstates lately...
Some slow ass Swift driver doing 64 in a 75, trying to pass a slow ass England doing 63.5.
I wonder if my F-350 could P.I.T. a semi?
Coupla things that have been bugging me lately.
People that spell ad with two d's when referring to advertising.
People that use the phrase "Screen Saver" when they mean "Desktop Wallpaper" (Screen savers are the moving graphics that come on after your computer sits for a while to prevent the desktop image from "burning in" to the monitor).
Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

A World Without Guns <- Great Read!
so today I drove down to the south campus to check something out of the library.
pull into the visitor's parking and there is only one spot available. the car next to the spot is a white jeep cherokee that is parked diagonally to the lines and is taking up almost half of the only open spot.
so, being the renegade I am, I squeeze in there. getting out (tight fit) I notice that there's a guy sitting in the jeep fiddling with a cellphone. I give him the "ok" sign (that in some cultures and american sign language also means 'asshole') and say nice parking job.
He puts his phone down, looks at me and says "QUE!?!!?"
So I lean forward and holler in spanish, "you sure do know how to park!" and head inside. (first I scoped his plate number)
I glance back and he's standing at the back of his vehicle doing his mexican tough guy hat dance. but does not yell or follow.
come back out maybe 10 min later, fully expecting damage to my car. (why I got his plate) his car is gone but he spit on my car several times.
I laugh, was planning on giving both cars a good spring cleaning next week anyway.
anybody want to look up his plate # for me, send a PM~
