Smokers that flick their ashes everywhere then throw their used butts on the ground. I was at a local restaurant and parked next to a pick up with an older man in it. As he got out he took one last drag then just flipped the still lit cigarette on the parkinglot. I saw a sticker on his tailgate that read "Green is Good"....I almost yanked it right off. :hatred:
Yes,I'm fine....as long as I don't look too closely.

     Papers like the Dallas Morning News that write articles about the struggles of "undocumented workers" here in this country.

     Two words....ILLEGAL. ALIEN. 'Nuff said!
If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?

     The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

I used to hate it when I'd be driving on the expressway at night, and somebody in a car ahead of me would just toss their butt out the window. Guess what, you can toss it sideways, but it still comes straight back at me, glowing extra bright as it whips through the air at near highway speed, throwing sparks as it bounces off the pavement.

Try walking beside the road when someone does that.

You want to throw something at my wife and I?  I'm sure we'd be more than happy to return the favor.

Heaven's no! I meant at the smokers throwing stuff at people walking. Sorry for the misunderstanding. :bluesad:

Kind of interesting, I just had a mid-term for a reference class, and I had to look up gas prices in the UK for like 1997.  Average for a gallon was around $6.  Today that'd be about $9. 

I can't believe anyone even drives ANYWHERE there.  Or at least not without something getting 50+ MPG.

I still grind my gears the old-fashioned way.  It may be a little rusty, and it's hard to find parts for it now, but you just can't beat an M37 Cogwrench rotary Gear-Grinder.

Nothings grinding my gears. For the first time in years, Im really happy about my life. Its far from perfect, still a million and one things I need to be getting on with, but nothing bugging me so far.

All is well.
