Welcome to My Blog

In the marketplace of ideas that is the internet, I am simply another merchant trying to peddle my wares. I could give you my credentials but in cyberspace credentials are really not important, are they? Admittedly, I am not really a misanthrope, though I do have a lot of contempt for humanity in general. But, I cannot lie and say I feel nothing for humans, because deep down I am pulling for the entire species to succeed; to do the right thing; to evolve. I suppose it is the constant disappointment that has led me to post my thoughts, opinions, feelings, and sociological theories. I invite your comments, arguments, and personal experiences...

An Open Letter

To The Person In the Fast Lane Going Slow,

Thank you for going 5 miles under the speed in the passing/fast lane. When I am driving home or driving somewhere else, there is nothing more that I enjoy than seeing open road while not being able to make use of it. Perhaps you haven't seen the signs that are posted everywhere saying, "Slower Traffic Keep to the Right." Or perhaps you just do not care about other people on the highway. When people swerve out from behind you, speed up, and cut you off they are sending you a message as clear as the middle finger. Unfortunately, you will unlikely heed their message.

Do you want to know what I find most ironic about you? You will drive in the far right lane until you are 1/10 of a mile away from your exit. You will then proceed to erratically change up to three lanes without checking your mirrors, using your turn signal, or paying attention to anyone else. You do realize they post signs telling when you are a mile or two away from your exit, right? You are the only reason I like police officers, even if they are never around when you are acting like a tool.

Sincerely,
The Guy Getting Road Rage
