Idiot Drivers…
Do you ever wonder how some people get their drivers licenses? I know when I took the test, they had me do all sorts of things, and I got two point taken off for turning into the far lane, rather than into the close lane. I ended up with a 98 of 100 on my driving test, because of that. I get on the freeway everyday, and get cut off, or someone driving two miles per hour. For gods sake, get the hell off the road if you can’t at least drive the speed limit. And you know those onramps….you are supposed to speed up to the speed the freeway is going on those. Everyday, I end up behind some idiot that gets on the freeway at 30mph, and traffic practically slams into my rear end because they have to slow down. On the flip side, I hate being tailgated. I rarely get into the fast lane so there is no reason for someone to tailgate me. I would slam my brakes on and let them hit me if my car wasn’t new. I usually just take my foot off the pedal and glide until I’m practically stopped if people tailgate me. There is something very wrong at the DMV for these people to be able to get licenses. People suck.
Have you ever watched the MTV show, LoveLines. What a strange show that is. I can’t believe some of these people even call in and tell their life stories. I mean most of the time they are just made fun of…of course, Dr. Drew does try to give them good advice, but I just dont think Im quite ready to call into an MTV show and tell them about my sexual problems. One girl called in and said, “Well, um, I just got a nipple ring, and uh, well, it hurts, and uh, well I think its infected, so what should I do about it?” Now, do you really need to call MTV to ask what to do about your swollen nipple? Um, maybe dip it in a bowl of strawberry jello for two days then stand on your head and eat watermelon. What do you think you do, take the damn ring out and go to the doctor for some antibiotic. Some people are idiots.
I love MAC! Today Apple released its first iMac Powerbook (pictured to the right in Tangerine, Blueberry not shown). It’s the coolest, just like my Powerbook G3. The new iMac Powerbook is compatible with Apple’s new Air Port, a wireless internet connection hub. Basically with Air Port multiple users, for example a classroom, could hook up to the net simultaneously through their own computers, visiting different web pages. Totally wireless, all through this one Air Port hub. Mac people are the only computer fanatics that LOVE their computers. I dont ever hear about people touting their Windows-based computers, but Mac people are like a religious organization. Mac Rules!!!!
On a final note, the bodies of John F. Kennedy, Jr, his wife, Caroline Bessette Kennedy and her sister, Lauren Bessette have been found in the plane wreckage 116 feet down in the water off the Cape, today, a day before Rose Kennedy’s birthday (JFK Jr’s grandmother). I hope this will begin to close this chapter, and finally the media can begin packing up and allow the families to grieve in private. During times like these, the last thing you want is a camera in your face. When my grandmother passed away rather tragically, I remember walking outside and having one of the local television stations pointing a camera into my face asking me to answer some questions. I think I needed some time to gather my thoughts, and if they had given me some time to prepare, perhaps I could have prepared a statement, but most of these news people just shove cameras, and microphone into your face and expect you to talk to them. They need to show some consideration.
