Just a Thought

When did driving between the lines become optional? People just meander around the road, sometimes using blinkers, most times not. Sometimes they straddle the lines, sometimes they drive with their tires on the lines - I think so that they can see how long the paint lasts with tires driving on them.

It is really scary driving beside these people as they arbitralily wander back and forth. Suppose they wander over the line just as they pull up beside you? What if two cars decide to wander over the lines at the same time and meet up in the middle? I try to be prepared for these wanderers, and drive behind or in front, not beside them.

I think there should be some way to monitor these people, and make them pay more taxes to repaint the lines. Or make them repaint the lines themselves.

It's just a thought.

• So, I'm watching the 6 o'clock news, and all I can see on the screen are the female anchor's incredibly white teeth glowing from the middle of her incredibly tan face.
• What's the deal, anyway? The first time I saw a lady from work looking like that, I laughed at her. It reminded me of the Friends episode where Ross falls asleep with a bleach plate in his mouth and his teeth are so white they glow in the dark.
• Have you noticed that everyone seems to be falling asleep with bleach plates in their mouths lately? While stretched out on their tanning beds? Is this supposed to be attractive?
• Maybe these people should watch that episode of Friends. And if that doesn't do the trick, they could always look in a mirror.
• It's just a thought.
