Spring Air

Winter wasn't that bad, right? We're now completely immersed in spring. The temperature is even flirting with 80 at the moment. So the bike has once again taken its rightful place on the back porch. New shoes have been purchased and there must've been 5000 tulip bulbs buried in our yard. They're everywhere.

So are people. People on bikes, people running, people walking unruly dogs, people in 4000 lbs of steel getting pissed because they think their car as well as the a-hole in it has some greater right to the road . There are A LOT of driving instructors not instructing. I hate people in cars, but kudos to the big auto companies... they've made us all think that we can't live without the automobile. And in the hot topic of gas, no one seems to think that a company who has mass-produced a machine that uses a non-renewable resource and has done so with fervor in the name of a larger profit margin shouldn't be held accountable. It's because we love them for what they've given us... the idea of personal freedom... and shame on anyone for getting in our way. We'll kill each other yet... then there'll be no one around to enjoy all those tulips.
