Well, I take that back...this morning on my way to work, I saw this huge behemoth of a woman, walking down the street in her 5 sizes too small exercise shorts, talking on her cell phone while she walked. The image of her walking was kind of like stumbling upon road kill...I didn't want to look but for some reason I was eerily drawn toward looking at the woolly mammoth in repose. But I digress.
My real reason for writing is because I am pissed off at people who think they need to text, talk, twitter or sext while they are driving. To say that I am madder than a car-load of homosexuals getting pulled over for doing 69 in a 55 would be an understatement. In the last 3 days I have been run off the road, nearly hit head on, and stuck behind drivers who find it necessary to be playing on their cell phones while driving. All of these folks must be so important that they have to be on their cell phones every moment of the day.
If you are one of those people who must be on your cell phone while you drive, then screw you and everyone who looks like you. Put down the damn phone and drive. You can send pictures of your weenie to people you don't know from the privacy of your own bedroom. Don't do it while you drive. Is that text you have to send so damn important that you damn near kill someone while you drive down the road? I don't think so.
Someone told me, "I use a hands free device while I drive..." Big deal. Who cares? You are still distracted while you drive. Here's an idea...just drive the car and stay off the phone. The latest person I saw on the phone while driving was blond and female...that can't be good.
Be Well.
Bill
