Thoughts on the Day

  • Dear Louisville Drivers – If it’s bad enough that you need to turn on your windshield wipers, it’s bad enough that you need to turn on your $@#!!@#$ headlights.
    • Especially if your car is the same color as the driving surface due to a fine crust of road salt.
    • On the plus side, I swore at you all in four languages tonight, and I needed the refresher.
  • The White Death was falling upon us this evening.  I expect to start seeing food riots in downtown Louisville any minute.
  • Maybe my people skills need a little work.
    • When told that one of my assignments for the year will be to fix a recurring problem in my work area, my first question was “How many people can I fire?” and my oft-repeated statement was “This is not a technology problem.”.
  • Irish Woman showed her love tonight by having a wonderful baked pasta dish ready for dinner when I got home from work.
  • I showed my love tonight by making her a warm fire so that she could warm her tuckus.

    Headlights are as much or more to ensure others see you, as to let you see them.
    People who can’t grasp that simple fact shouldn’t be trusted with the keys to a Big Wheel.

        Yep, driving around in a silver or white vehicle in blowing snow or rain and you are in the invisible car. There’s a reason why the Navy paints their ships haze grey.

        Everything was kind of a haze gray after all of the salt that was on the roadway had redeposited on the cars.
