I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Random thoughts on a commute

Is there some reason we're driving this slow? Nope, just pokey people this morning.

Really? Putting out a sign that says you're open July 4th? Um. You do know that will drive some of us away. How often do I need an oil change on the 4th of July? How about you give your employees the day off (with pay) to celebrate, I don't know, our nation's founding?

Okay, so you're in a F-350 hauling a trailer with what looks like either a discing machine, or really huge mowing outriggers. And you're pulled off the side of the road. As two cars come up behind you, you pull back out into the lane to move forward 50' only to pull off to the side again. This causes the 2 cars to not only have to slow down even more, but closes off their ability to pass you until they wait for the line of on coming traffic to pass (which, if you had staid where you were, wouldn't have been an issue). Please surrender your operators license to the next police officer you see. If they ask why, just say someone handed you a sign.

Hi! Yeah, I'm over here in the opposite lane. Thank you for waking up long enough to not cause a head-on collision. Sorry to make you swerve like that.

There's so many leaves on the ground, it looks like up is down. Is there grass on the sky?

Were did all these Amish come from and why are they all on the road this morning?
