Traffic can be a pain near where I work, especially around 5:00 pm. I decided to cut through an apartment complex to cut the time. Yes, I know, you're technically not supposed to be doing that, but I'm a rebel, born to be wild, and you just can't cage me. Don't even try. However, I do try my best to be an observant driver. Check my blind spots, use my turn signal, obey the speed limit... but I simply refuse to bow to this. It's a bit absurd, don't you think? I mean, my speedometer doesn't even have individual markers to make sure that I'm actually going 9 mph. Why 9? Why not be like everyone else and make it 10? I even tried that through this particular parking lot. 10 mph is pretty flippin' slow. It's clear to me that the person managing this apartment complex is just being a dick. Who the hell goes 9 mph? Not this guy. I flew through there going 15... Take that, management...

Just Put That Anywhere
Field correspondent DoubleH send this to me a while ago.
Just because you HAVE a four wheel drive vehicle doesn't mean you have to USE the four wheel drive option. Seriously, there is absolutely no reason this Jeep could not have fit nicely in that parking spot. I guess they were worried about getting a door ding on the wood paneling.

Lumber-Based Clothing Is The Best
This is another two-picture, zoom-in post. Click the pictures to enbiggen.
Last week, I took advantage of the nice weather to enjoy lunch on the patio of a locally-owned restaurant. I noticed the above cabinet mounted on the wall. I assume it was custom made to enclose a television. I then noted that there is text on the bottom board. It has the manufacturer's name and logo in the middle, nothing unusual there. Then I noticed this text on the left-hand edge:
"PRIME ALL CUTS": Now that is good advice. You don't want your board to rot from the cuts you make.
"Call Kurt for a Shirt": Uhhh, what? I assume there was a telephone number following that statement and I would love to know what kind of shirt a lumber manufacturer would provide.
