Had a funny road rage incident today. Was driving my normal 75 in the fast lane which is common for Cali hwys. Had a guy pull up behind and almost ram into me. So of course I slowed down and started to cat and mouse the guy just to infuriate him which always works. Dude followed me when i got out of the lane and started to swerve towards me several times. So of course the guy rolls his window down and wants me to pull over so I did.

I wasn't really thinking much of it so i parked as did he. I am big enough to handle myself so I hopped out and immediately this guy hopped out. Dude was an African American male about 6'7 280 which was a bit imtimidating. I approached him anyway and dude pulled off his sunglasses and said MIKE? I noticed it was a friend from the high school basketball team Courtney. So we laughed it off and I got his number to keep in touch.

Probably not the smartest thing to hop out but turned out harmless. We got a chuckle out of it. I told him your free to be an ******* on the highway for the rest of the day and he said likewise ******* talk to ya later.

Saw two women here the other day involved in a road rage incident. One tried to overtake the other on the approach to a set of traffic lights in order to beat the car in front to them

The car that was being overtaken decided to speed up and stop the other car from overtaking, which meant that the overtaking car had to stop in the middle of the road at the lights, as it couldn't reverse up as there were other cars behind. The two women then wound down their windows and had a good barny with one another in a real catfight style. I enjoyed watched the whole thing from the bus-stop along with some foreign tourists

Thanks!
And yea, it's precisely the position I was looking for.
It's strange, because I had been using Careerbuilder to look for openings in IT, and had sent plenty resumes out there, but they were all for positions either above or below my experience level and I never got any correspondence. Finally, I just decided to go on Craigslist and found an ad, sent my resume', not actually expecting anything, and they replied back immediately and the next day I got the call.

I don't mind the teaching gig, but unless they made me permanent, then the hours just aren't enough. Hopefully, if I'm hired for this new gig, they'll understand that I don't want to leave my students hanging and let me finish the semester, which is only 2 hour classes, 3 days a week.

I really really hope they're ok with that.

The she started being sick. It was either to do with morning sickness or heroin withdrawl or heroin use 'cause I'm sure when I met her the other mth and had a breif chat she was out of it on smack. I told her i hoped it was going to be alright...her pregnancy obviously and she said 'it will' and I'm sure she knew what I was thinking...that her heroin use was going to 'cause a miscarriage or otherwise ill effect the baby. She threw up a bit more then asked me for some money, walked along a bit more with me then we went out seperate ways.

all the things Derek does will never make up for that awful album he did with the Dominoes
