    So much for "christianity", and gotta love the dog story - I once was just about to grab one of those little pooches when out running, as it was pooping in a children's playground basically underneath the "no dogs" sign. I was going to dump it in the trash bin for the owner to dig out again.
    It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

    jay-sus.

    I wonder how badly those cretins would have soiled their underpants had they known what you do for a living.

    Irritating ride...

    I have to admit that I would have been amused by the dog biting its owner HA!

    Were you able to get the license plate number from the Lexus? I'm sure that everything happened so quickly, that it would have been difficult.

    Be safe,and keep an eye open for the Lexus

    Last summer I came within 2 inches of being right-hooked by a black SUV with a sign on the driver's door that said CLERGY. There's no way he didn't see me before he turned.

    Apparently 10 commandments was too much for this particular minister, so he decided to forget about the whole thou shalt not kill thing.

    Around here people just get full of Jesus and waffles, then they're in a hurry to get home & watch Sunday sports. Other than being more retarded/careless, they aren't any more or less aggressive as far as I've noticed!
    Because not every fast cyclist is a toothpick...

    It seems like every bad driver that doesn't drive during the week, is on the road on Sunday. I just read in the local paper that a triathlete got hit by a car this morning during a race where I normally ride. Someone tried to out run him exiting a marina. Noone wants to share the road, only hog it.

    I would love to grab the dog next door to me, the way you did.... he has almost taken both me and my husband down.

    And the Jesus and waffles? Well this morning, as we were driving to Boston to meet son and gf for breakfast, it was really crowded with cars and people in Concord center. I could not figure out what was going on, since it was early. But I just figured it out. One of the churches had just let out and they all were on their way to eat waffles at a restaurant down the street.

    I remember one rainy Sunday morning, my ancient Chevy Nova died in the middle of a busy intersection. I was coming home from my overnight shift as a houseparent for severely physically and mentally disabled children. Dozens of cars loaded with people on their way to church sped by me as I attempt to push the car out of the way all by my 19-year-old lonesome. The guy who stopped to help me? Also on his way home from night shift.

    Once I got home, dried off, and calmed down, I pictured Jesus waitin' on the front steps of several churches delivering a few dope slaps.
